seems i wasn't a reboot, thank god! toon in world, sent to a distant FT, but seems the farm is still on *phew^* ooff, farm is up, but the shiva seeds are gone XD

toons are back right now... then off. reboot, rlly? this doesn't fix the problem, cause it will hapennd again. Doing so, besides, i'll lose the homesead, the shiva seeds planted, and of course, part of the farming kit used. Thanx. You had a guy tracking this issue for days and the only thing you did was a reboot. Really, time is near when you, LO, should come clear with this with us. Are those "new servers" gonna run ok someday?

we can pass the login server, so we can see the empty room of the character select, but no toons. My wild guess is what happened to the database server on the move is still kicking, probably related to the 10-15 mins of server lag that Grelko has been tracking, when FT, mail, aution, mounts... login, are affected. It last 15 mins and then the server goes on and all works again. Kick he databases server plz, hard.

is it, again, down? Im here posting, bu unable to connect... so...idk nvm.. just worked again... maybe some weid shit at my end (living in spain wouldn't surprise me at all)

same here, i closed the game after a system msg appeared saying: game is offline. I can login, select a characer, but there it stops, loading the area.

This is extracted from Wikipedia, haven't ever read it there b4...

i love it and thank you. The old one were too bright and the contrast between them too high

maybe idk if a forum is the place for the meaning of colors, I just think he does it because he likes it, it's fine thou, no rules against it eiher. But anyways, as we all use normal typing, sometimes simple is better, not trying too hard... I need to force myself in reading some of his posts just for the coloring. It's just my POV, each one is free to choose how to comunicate, he does that, others do memes, and so on. BTW, Alec is still initialyzing, soon...

sorry in advance for this digression... In my natural languaje, spanish, Hoping and Waiting uses the same word "Esperando", means the same, basically... Sadly in English you have both ideas separated, but hose who wait are here because they have hope... btw @Murcuri my eyes started to bleed :_), remember, im sensitive to pink XD, actually would be much apreciated if you write like everybody else, please?

Well, I must say that I feel sad for not been alone in this, even when I'm alone in the character screen. Done all checks too, and waited long for my crew to come back from the Oilville pub...

as i said i haven' done much pvp, hell much at all (only been here for a month), in FE. It's just an idea. How will you improve it, if it were to apply some buff/debuffs to pvp/pve armor to make factions matter? Maybe if you only aply the faction friend/foe debuff to the pvp armor, taking out the monters dmg debuf? Annd how make faction armor be better for the players to be encouraged to farm all factionn reputation for crafting it... Well, as i said, just and idea. May like you, may don't, opinions are like arses, we all have one . But it is something moveable, adaptable, to others ideas... any? Best Regards...

also update he EULA plz, is still with the Reloaded company as if they were behind anything anymore... yes, someone might even read it. 8D

i agree that with PC in pvp this would be a no no, besides the fun seeing someone fly... i though on this collision check with vehicles and mounts more for PVE too, hitting a creature will damage the creature, but also the mount will be damaged... it's weird you can go across hundreds of creepers and not even been slowed down a bit, ann the ocasional damage taken is just a fortunate bite. Just think about it, we could make games with pray chickens pushing them with our horses even...

Much apreciated yours and your team work, Matt. Let me guess and idea...maybe, even if not dinamically yet, you might need to backup the database, leaving online only the last year's characters data (enough to be handle by the diagnostics you are doing). If someone from far beyond that time need his/her character can use a ticket, at least untill you clean up the rest of the database and make it dinamically at last. Only keep in mind that you have to acces all records when naming a character, maybe leaving only names table and cleaning the rest would be enough... otherwise this will be repeating once and over again... such mass of data... i feel it is unbareable to make good maintenance of that. Anyway, you have my full support. Hope next time fixing is a charm. If not, Matt, slice it!

it's online. ty.

ty Matt, I undertand that trying messing again wih the server could bring us back again to relive these past days again. Now you have the server going, let's keep it that way and face the new problems aside... I wonder if there would be a way of mergin the real last account data, from some other database in those backups, with the actual one we are seeing now in the server. It's what i asked in my support ticket, idk if it's a viable solution as we aren't so many players... But take a rest whenever you can, please, your team deserves it. I'll wait longer as i've been doing all this time. Cheer up.

2 weeks!!?? so, not only the purchases i did the weekend before all this happened, but if i wait till my backup gets right I may lose membership time aswell... I think i don't have the words to express how sad im right now but, i'll still give hem a bit of slack, and trust i'll find my way into the game. Atm im out, im not going there to that... so, see you next week, i hope

congratz LO, finally you did it. Now i'll try to contact support as Ms. lixil said... hope it can be fixed aswell, not just level, but shop items, my first buggy... well... let's smile to the storm, at least we got the game up again.

good morning yaall, at least i could rest a bit more than those who are still working on this. Cheer up guys, if the server doesn't priorityze then flush the old data away to other "vault" but you'll know better what to do. I'm as microegineering never had to deal with mainframes but only personal computers, is way out of my league, but can feel the disstress of non stop working and worrying... if we have to play with hard lag several days untill the fresh system adapts, so be it... seems this commutity can endure it. Nothing like throwing darts in the dark, is easy for us but for those who see things from afar can even hit the target by chance... Demanding the "sterile bussiness" payback thing... i, and i think we all, can understand the feeling, but i want to believe too, also i don't think that will resolve anything if we get to the nerves and flame the forum. In my case it hurt me that they broke their word, but their also are working hard, so if anything beaks it also can mend. So let's believe... And for the prize when this is over... i see, first a mandatory rest the next week for all of the team, they need to regain their mental strenght for the rest of the journey. Drinks and such will only give them bad mournings 8), but as a secondary gift i could pack some botles of wine from here... i live in Spain and is one of the things here is decent Well, that all from me atm. Im going to fight my onw withdrwal not with meth but other old games i got around, but always waiting for a "ding" from this forum, although is hard not to think in Sooney's crafts anytime. Hope next time it says it's on and we can play. Cheers, S-

i can imagine how they are...

would you let me put a song for this moment, plz? hope you enjoy it, it's a great artist...

whatever it is i hope it is not time sensitive, because i wont be able to play all the weekend long and i would hate losing a day or two if they were to give us a commander for 3 days or so... Having the issue identified doesn't assure the quick fix thou, only that they know now where to keep working. Still they'd need to rest all of them at some point, poor guys, really. Cheer up ppl, we are getting there!!

i see all reasons, humor and sarcasm is the best we can do at this point. Even when we don't know anything untill today for what was happening. If there were no humor... i'll remark the lack of communication between the dev team and CM, and that they haven't stood for their word with the schedule, for me one of the most sacred things. If instead of this we use sarcasm... i's fine for me. The damage is done anyway, they may compensate for this, but a broken word stings forever :S

i rlly hope everyone is ok and no accidental issues went around 8), aside for been working all this time with the occasional rest for 2 or 3 coffee pots... i rlly hope either rush them or having someoe with the whip near them, stress doesn't mix well when "stuff" happens. I'd indeed want to see a picture of the mainframe, just to know what the techs are dealing with, also we culd see the "face" of what is holding our world... I rest till the moment Matt asured the backups were safe, so anytime the server goes on will be fine. And i'd love a video of all the process, seeing all the struggling and succeedinng on the move... but i's too much to ask that kind of conection, i guess... well, hope all ends well, and despite all our quarries here, just you know we are here, at first impatient, then worried and now hopefull you can end this so you can rest too. cheers, S.

ok Ritual, ty Time for me for a good sleep then. Here, another . Good Nights, FE.
