thats not on topic either. the only thing that will be on topic is gaeorn's or CD's post... so, should everyone stop posting?

...

why cant we all just chat here because these are the people who really care about the server? instead of going and making a thread somehwere else that could be intruded on by p99 peeps or other server folk... everyone needs to chillax, the server will be up when the server will be up... in the meantime, sit down, have some coffee and shoot the breeze with your fellow PEQers.

Just got word that PEQ *may* be getting a reboot tomorrow. There goes my weekend if so :P *Fingers crossed*.

I forgot to mention earlier in the thread, a few hours before server went down (then failed to reboot), there were PoP zones crashing multiple times with only 30 people in them that usually hold 90 <free agents> with no problem.

Assuming it's not code/ISP related, box might have collected enough dust in the year it was on to start overheating the hard drives/CPU/Ram or something like that. It's happened to me a few times. Hopefully somebody will turn it off a while before rebooting if that's the case.

Correct, it isn't on topic, it was a polite request to stay on topic. This reply is not on topic either and I'd be perfectly fine with it being deleted, right along with every single post that is not related to the server being down atm.

so, should everyone stop posting?

If it's not directly related to the server being down, Yes.

Because thats not the "Topic" of this thread.

instead of going and making a thread somehwere else that could be intruded on by p99 peeps or other server folk...

The only thing keeping folks from p99 or other servers from posting in here is them not having anything to say about the Topic of this thread. Go make a post titled "Shooting the breeze with my fellow PEQers"

everyone needs to chillax, the server will be up when the server will be up...

Agreed.

in the meantime, sit down, have some coffee and shoot the breeze with your fellow PEQers.

I am having coffee atm, and if i'm interested in shooting the breeze with my fellow PEQers I'll be sure to hop over into your new thread where the topic is 'Shooting the breeze with my fellow PEQers' or whatever you choose to title it. (while that may sound sarcastic, it's not intended as such, it is to be taken literally)

well the topic of the thread is "PEQ is down again ??" so really the only post that would be on topic would be "yes." or any form of the word... that is, if you want to get literal.

status posts should be made in the threat PEQ status!....

and thanks CD for rockin my socks.

[Maladien]

Thanks for the update CD.

Reason for staying on topic is because anyone just coming into this situation now has to wade thru 16 pages of posts, about 1/3 of which are actually worth reading. I'm reading this thread to check for updates as to the status of the PEQ server, not whatever random crap happens to be running thru someones head at the moment, or about how people "cant wait to play again".

On that note, is there a way to ignore posts from annoying forum members?

So since there are other people on this forums that "annoy you" you are going to try and make an example of me? i think the community is well aware of the situation at hand..... its been down for 2 weeks.... and yes can we get an annoying forum member filter so i can stop quoting this guy and telling him the truth?

and for anyone checking this thread for server status.... im gonna let you in on a little secret.... check the old website and the new website.... when those are up the game server will be up asap. (asap doesnt mean right then and there it means as soon as possible.)

1) Click on their username in one of their posts
2) Select "View Public Profile"
3) Click "Add <handle> to Your Ignore List" above Contact Info (link is subtle)
4) Click "Save List"

.....Lawl. Fail.

We are currently waiting for the server to be rebooted. We expect this should happen within the next 4 or 5 hours. As soon as it is up, we will be working on getting the data off it and setting everything up under the new domain.

Well, there is no guarantee we are getting rebooted today. He said he will try to get down there. Though, that usually means it'll happen.

Once it's back up, I'll disable the forums and everything and all data before that point will be intact.

That's why I said "should happen" instead of "will happen"... figured your earlier post about it merely being a chance to be rebooted today was enough. It really isn't my problem if someone reads more into it than I stated...

Should we avoid logging in and playing when the server is rebooted, before it is moved to the new domain?
