Scheduled Server Downtime October 7, 2014

Also looking for eta on crushbone

Busted, darn it! /grins

Believe me, that is the exact opposite of what they want. I have a strict "hands off" policy to running this dealership. Unless money is involved, then I run my hands all over the money in a loving and disturbing manner. They hate it when I walk around looking for something to do....they have it under control.

I'm like the muscle except fatter. I only come out when there is trouble. They're getting nervous seeing so much of me today.

Can we bring Crushbone back up? Hamster is on me this time!

Ahhhh.


AB is back up.

See ya suckers ;P


(In all seriousness, I hope everyone is fine and things go smoothly from here. Have fun all.)

AB isn't really up. I can get to the loading zone screen...then it freezes. The old girl is having some issues still I fear.

Players (all users for any server/application/program really) are more tolerant of problems when they know what they are and are kept in the loop on the fix. Even "Sorry guys... at least another hour." Would cut us free of constantly refreshing the server status page every two minutes. I've mentioned this to them time and time again. It's a lesson they've yet to learn.

I keep wanting to ask, "Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

Im not that much of expert, but i bet you could run a script at a certain time, to update servers automaticly.
If updates are tested enough and there are no bugs (not known ^^).
But as, sentence 2 will never be ^^
EU is just the wrong timezone ^^

Ah, explains that then. I actually walked in on a car dealership's supervisor playing WoW once. Didn't qualify for the car, but it was a good chat lol.

Barren Sky and Harla Dar servers should be coming down for the update in approximately 20minutes, at 10:30am PDT.

EU servers still planning on Noon PDT. I'll update you if anything changes.

Sorry guys. You know if I had any control over it Crushbone would always be the first server up and running! The servers are being unlocked as they finish updating.

I miss you Afista! Wish I had gone to FF this year!

In case you missed it, please do it tomorrow out of prime time.

And now ONLY Crushbone is down for the US still...grrrr

We hate to bring servers down during any prime time, but they need to get the data live as soon as possible.

Ok, gut couple of questions raised due to "noon pdt" which means what time? ^^

I think the hamsters died running on the crushbone server wheel :-(

20:00 BST
21:00 CET

I love it that Crushbone is the ONLY server still down.

the experiment to swap out hamsters for gerbils did not work out so well

Crushbone ....... 35 mins later really buttons are hard to press

pdt equals bst?
