Can someone please post a legit time the Server might be up again? Just silly a 10 min ETA is posted when it's been over an hour downtime....

It has been down for 2 hours thus far, and no, no one can give you a specific time. If the people working on the server deem it worth while to give us a time, they shall. But they are doing unpaid work to maintain a free server for us all to nostalgia on, and we don't even get server downs every week for maintenance.

I am more than content to just sit by and wait patiently. It's a small price to pay.

With a "should be up in (Time X)" comes a "OMFG WHY ISN'T IT UP?!?!?" throng of rage posters from people who are staring at the server select trying to get their Droga camps back as soon as that promised time goes by.

Promises bring responsibility etc.

Make every ETA 3 days IMO. Then people will always be surprised how "fast" it was.

I do this with my grocery bill. Never upset at how much big grocer is plugging me on prices.

Despite all their BS I do believe they managed to have updates on extended downtime.
Just cause it's free doesn't mean Oilersman should not be allowed to request some common courtesy - which I take it is his purpose?
