DDO unavailable: Saturday March 30th

Morning! We are continuing to work on network connection issues at the data center. Once we know more we will update you.

It would suggest irrationality.

Exhausted and overworked hamsters saboting their own treadmill wheels are unlikely to be suspected of coolheadedness.

Thanks for the update.

You lack a sense of humor. Compared to the vitriol on these forums in past issues I am pleasantly surprised at this thread.

**** prison guards said of American POWs: "These crazy Americans. Always joking around."
It's what we do.

I wouldn't turn down a pizza. Meat Lovers with garlic Alfredo sauce, please?

Pizza coupons all round, redeemable at the pizza place of your choice !!

mmmmmMMMMmmmm some good places down here right next to the Italian border !!

 

[Dandonk]

Just in case it hasn't been said so far.... are we there yet?

Are we there yet?

 

[MagicalDad]

...and that's a full 24 hours.

Well, given the timing, it takes 40 hours for the dead to rise out of the tomb. So, this evening?

 

[Bunker]

Have they called in The "Fixer" yet. The Wolf? Or possibly The Webdude?

 

[rohmer]

So... About that fantasy game I play in my off time?

Have they tried turning off and on again?

Stan is having easter brunch, it will be a while.

It will be a bit, they have isolated the issue with people jumping too much. Jump charges are being developed as we speak.

I have to quote myself here. The forum protocol does not allow us to use the word N*zi. So what are historians supposed to do?

I find that non-inclusive, and I am offended.

Welcome to the internet, get used to it.

 

[Toede]

so about those servers

 

[Arkat]

Huh, guess there are a ton of people who lose their minds when DDO goes down, still.

At least one person is freaking out...

Just hoping it did not take 23h for your contractor to determine it was a network issue

As to the cause, there was some kind of power related event at the data center that has caused critical hardware issues and despite our redundancies there are issues getting things to communicate.

FYI

so about those servers

Sounds more like a smoking access router, i.e. network hardware, not a normal computer server. And actual NW hardware failure means at least replacing cards or the entire box. Hence ETA depends on when they found the cause and when the order went out for replacement parts and whether supplier has stuff on stock, etcetera ....
