[Porz]

Guess its time to find some food >.<

[kent247]

You got a g/f?

[quido]

incoming velious

[TAllen82]

Ok, so I could see how enough corpses piling up could crash a server, multiplying slimes on UO was done to intentionally crash the server years and years ago (hence the fact that slimes in MMOs no longer multiply when attacked) but why would it bring Red down as well, they are run independently are they not?

[NGHpnotiq]

incoming velious

At 1 AM Eastern, Seems legit...

[NGHpnotiq]

Red and Blue are tied together, something like.. Red Login is through Blue server or something, I don't remember, Rogean explained it when the Hard drives took a crap a few weeks ago.

[NGHpnotiq]

Also, How many people are just staring at project1999.org mashing F5 to see if the servers are back up?

[Acrux Bcrux]

rogean stop shamboiling and bring the server back up

[Zeonick]

ITS NEVER COMING BAAACKKKK!!!!

[Porz]

rogean stop shamboiling and bring the server back up

[snflanigan]

How great would it be if they had to roll back the servers and Shinko had to kill himself over again?

[Estolcles]

I hope Shinko is perma banned for this shit.

This is ruining my late night.

[Kevynne]

It's still down.

[Zeonick]

The timing was impeccable, my gf logged Off saying "im done, you can play the rest of the night." I frantically log on knowing I will level tonight. "server down"
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

[Stabulous]

For anyone who's seen the server go down late a night before, does it usually come back up relatively quickly or could we be waiting a while?

Usually downtime is minimal. This is the longest it's been down (unscheduled) in a long time.

My best guess Rogean doesnt even know the server is down given the time of night, be lucky to have it back up in the morning sometime, I would just go to bed

[heals4reals]

I heard Systolic knows whos behind this crash

[Kevynne]

Last time this happened server was down for 3-4 hours

Wow - I am kind of boggled if this is not a sarcastic post. Guy is playing for free due to the efforts of some dedicated hobbyists (ie. Not paid) and is demanding an explanation about what happened to the server that he has put ZERO effort into keeping up? Dude needs to get some perspective.

You should understand that, while some of these people play for free and do just that, a lot of folks have donated HUNDREDS of dollars to the upkeep of the servers, while others have volunteered man-hours to crowdsource problems that the original team just doesn't have time to hit effectively.

Think you're the one who needs to check perspective; volunteers/hobbyists or not, you host a community like this, you have a certain amount of accountability and responsibility to them.

This made me LoL Irl, Rlly? They owe you an explantion? Kick rocks... Haha they don't owe you anything, and just because you DONATE doesn't entitle you with the right to hold them accountable.

This made me LoL Irl, Rlly? They owe you an explantion? Kick rocks... Haha they don't owe you anything, and just because you DONATE doesn't entitle you with the right to hold them accountable.

Hmm. Let's walk through the progression here.

You run an entirely volunteer effort out of your own pocket. Hurts the pocket to do it on your own. As a result, donations are taken to help take the load off by those of a like mind.

You then turn around and tell those people to eat a bag of dicks. Donations, understandably, stop.

In a position where you're offering up a service, it behooves you to offer an explanation, however brief, as to the nature of problems that affect people that essentially stop your wallet from bleeding if you want this project to go on.

[ripwind]

Based on the time this occurred, I'm assuming most of the devs and GMs were sleeping. I'm sure there will be some sort of explanation in the future.

[Weekapaug]

At what point, exactly, has the server staff told anyone "to eat a bag of dicks?"

The server went down for a few hours. Now it's up. Grow the fuck up.

Touche Sir, Show your true colors, It was 1AM! Do they live to serve us? I guess they should take a sleeping rotation?

Too bad this isn't a pvp server. If it were I would see some corpse camping in someones future.

[myriverse]

By definition, a donation has a lack of return consideration. This means: you donate; they owe you nothing. Even organ recipients owe donors nothing for saving their lives. Sure, your continued support is based on your continued enjoyable experience. Devs understand that (I'm sure they actually understand that better than anyone), but they still owe no one anything.

[TAllen82]

"Dude, Sorry, server crashed, we were asleep, it was 2 in the morning, eat a bag of dicks" they probably would never say that, but I would totally say that. If I was an unpaid under-appreciated developer who tried like hell to keep this project alive despite the continued criticism and general whine-bagginess of a few unwashed nerds who can't wrap their heads around the fact they get to play for free....I would TOTALLY say that.

Love you Guys!

[Medowin]

I don't mind server crashes once in a while, but it would be nice to at least get an explanation or an ETA when it happens.

Glad the servers are back up. What ever happened good job at fixing it!!

[Porz]

I don't mind server crashes once in a while, but it would be nice to at least get an explanation or an ETA when it happens.

I think the point is there was going to be no ETA They were asleep. Rogean doesnt have an alarm attached to the server to wake him up at 2am when a server goes down..If they were awake to give an explanation they would have just turned the server back up,..

I know, right? I swear, anyone who doesn't think computer game addiction isn't a very real thing right up there with heroin and blow needs to come read one of these threads sometime.

This server is up more consistently than live ever was during this era, by the way.

Back then it was always on the one day you managed to play hookey from work and got your friends to do the same...Like clockwork BOOM server down. I still to this day harrass my one friend about being so addicted to EQ that one time, after the servers had been down for a couple of hours I suggested we go play something else for a bit and check back, and he delivered his classic line from '99..."Nah, I'd rather smoke bowls and watch the big board." The big board being that server status utlility you could have up with the green lights for each server if they were up.

I mean, come on....I get as antsy about downtime as anybody when I'm really into the game, but I bet some of these people literally burst blood vessels in their eyes back then. The freaking server has been back up for hours and they are still bitching and demanding explainations.

[Catatonia]

I don't mind server crashes once in a while, but it would be nice to at least get an explanation or an ETA when it happens.

It would be nice to get it of course, but remember that rogean and everyone making P99 possible owe you nothing. If anything, it should be the contrary.

[Tecmos Deception]

Hopefully the staff understand that when people go berserk over the server being down, it just means that p99 is so awesome that we don't want to go more than a few minutes without it.

[Weekapaug]

Hopefully the staff understand that when people go berserk over the server being down, it just means that p99 is so awesome that we don't want to go more than a few minutes without it.

I hope they get a good laugh at these people. If I ran a server like this there would probably be like one night a year I would come home so drunk that I would just have to pull the plug for 10 mins just to see people shit kittens all over the boards.

Having a server knocked down with hundreds of people investing their emotion and time into it then simply saying "fuck you I owe you nothing" is a huge disrespect. You can't expect respect without first being willing to give it in return.

[Sarius]

Having a server knocked down with hundreds of people investing their emotion and time into it then simply saying "fuck you I owe you nothing" is a huge disrespect. You can't expect respect without first being willing to give it in return.

They never said "Fuck you, I owe you nothing". What are you on?
