Naw I'd rather watch the clean up job SSG is now doing on this thread

 

[Volarr]

there is nothing wrong with the servers you all have been banned. SSG didn't want to spoil your holiday by telling you.

 

[Prysala]

Khyber is back online, happy days.

See i told you.

 

[Gunguz]

Huh. My game is closing out after I select my server. I get the splash screen, then poof, back to desk top.

 

[Frantik]

Excellent news!

 

[Toede]

Oops. I guess in all that work over the weekend they missed something other than pushing the power button this morning.

 

[Prysala]

Why post something that is obviously a lie? no servers are up yet.

It is not a lie, and all the servers are back now.

I'd start with step 23 with checking your anti-virus, that was causing people issues recently with killing the game. https://forums.ddo.com/index.php?th...-as-crowdsourced-by-many-players-advice.1666/

Good that you have repaired it, but I expect some compensation. That was 2 weekend days of servers down, time that we have paid for. At least some VIP extension would be appreciated (because most of us have time to play on weekends, as opposed to working days).

Are you using the launcher? You do have the accept the use licenses again.

What Did You Do During The Great Outage:

This is a great for posting here!!

I went to NY for 2 days to do in person tabletop with my friends, using dwarven forge terrain, watched Godzilla x Kong and had dinner with my wife and daughter, generally chilled with them. Seeing as I have not actually met in person my friends in NY for many years, this was an excellent event!

You were one of the smart ones, that knew right away on Saturday morning that there wasnt a hope in all of avernus that this was going to be corrected before the easter holiday weekend was over.

Actually easter 2024 was P Banned.

 

[Volarr]

I never gave you permission to use my picture

 

[Drunken.dx]

indeed...any of you ever been close to a Lightning Strike? one hit right next to my home years back...sounded like a 105 mm artillery shell hit

sisters friend got his house hit by one.
Fried EVERY electronic device in house, and I mean EVERYTHING that uses electricity to run

Servers are up, gimmah free stuff

*facepalm

Imagine your phone company shutting your phone service off for 2 weekends out of the month because "oopsies".

That is not a good comparison. There is a huge difference between my phone company and SSG. I signed a contract with my phone company guaranteeing me the service I pay for. The TOS for DDO does not make any such guarantee, in fact, it explicitly states the opposite.

 

[Gunguz]

Are you using the launcher? You do have the accept the use licenses again.

Yup. Did all that. Double settings in options, also.

 

[Volarr]

finally my launcher is downloading again. only 21080 files to go still at 88%

 

[Thumbed_Servant]

Hi everyone! Just wanted to pop in and let everyone know that the game worlds have been reopened. We apologize for the unexpected downtime over the weekend.

Yay!

Thank you to all of the SSG staff and others who worked on this holiday weekend to repair/correct the troubles.
