Going up and down for the next few minutes for various updates.

Edit: Back up.

I dunno maybe thats far fetched but how else could bots get around that shit

I don't think it's far fetched, I think it's a good possibility. And maybe I should move to China and become one of these kids. Can you say "salary increase"?

Awesome, thank you ^.^b

I've had 2 people contact me today because they can't log in from their PC because they are told their IP has been banned. It definitely wasn't done deliberately and it doesn't seem like it was even done accidentally. Meaning, the IP address they provided me is not on the banned IP list. Nothing on their account seems out of order at all.

So I'm just saying, if you have this problem, shoot me a PM from your phone or from another computer (if you're reading this I'm guessing you can log in from somewhere) and we'll sort it out.

I sent an email to Burners, so the expert is on the case.

Windows update reboot.

Back up.

Power's out. Been out for about 10 minutes, so it's probably not gonna be a quick thing. I'll update when things are working again.

Edit: Things seem to be back up and stable. The outage effected about 1600 people according to PG&E, so it was fairly large. Just FYI :-)

The database has started running really slow and I'm still cleaning up old records.

I'm taking down the database for a little while to do some stuff to try to get it flowing properly again. It may take a few hours, hopefully it'll just be this once.

Edit: Quicker than I thought. Back up.

Maintenance reboot.

I've got a buddy that's on 14 all the time that's trying to get me to come over, but I just don't see it happening. I can't keep up with life with gaming. I can't imagine getting into another MMO. Sorry...

Since your name is in blue it looks like Burners has taken care of your access problem. If you're still having trouble, please PM me a copy/paste of your entire Paypal email receipt and I'll get you set up.

You don't seem too happy about the situation, so I won't lecture or point to any posts... Just PM me a copy/paste of your entire Paypal email receipt and I'll get you squared away.

Sorry, your posts got stuck in the moderation queue waiting to be approved. That's the 2nd time this has happened, not sure why. Anyway, you should be able to PM now. Please just PM me a copy/paste of your entire Paypal email receipt and I'll get you squared away.

As for getting a refund, if you didn't PM Burners about it go ahead and do that. I'll send a PM as well. He hasn't been on the site much lately, so it may take some time, but he's very understanding when it comes to that kind of thing so please just be patient.
