Small request - next time you bring the servers down

    Can you give us a little more warning, please. :)

    1 minutes does not give us time to finish killing what we are killing and get ourselves safe before camping out.

    5 minutes would be grand. :)

    It crashed, Einstein.
  3. DillyBar Augur

    The network, that is, crashed.
  4. Nennius Curmudgeon

    Crash, and the likely rollback.
  5. Yinla Ye Ol' Dragon

    AB did not crash it had a 1 minute warning.

    So if you want to be insulting get your facts straight.

    Daybreak's entire network went down, all their games.

    DDoS attack or Overseer has "become aware" and is taking over Daybreak now and the world soon?

    If that is the case how did we get the following warnings.

    Check the other game forums, they were having the same issues.

    ????????

    One good suggestion about the possible cause of this was that when they moved to a new provider they bought a cheaper level of bandwidth...then either forgot to buy more, or mis estimated, what the new servers would need.

    That's cool, I don't know what words mean either.

    What does that have to do with him showing evidence that the servers received a warning and didn't "crash." Quite amazing that no one can answer the question and just ignores reality after telling him he was wrong.

    Freedom of Speech protects persons from the government. In the US system, companies can silence nonsense on their on websites all they want. That is not communist censorship, that is capitalist censorship.
