Any news regarding the status of the server?
In another words, it's probably a <1% chance that it'll be open by Easter. I'm certain I can get it done much sooner. The server can be back anytime by this weekend to next Easter.DW_Ant wrote:Not displaying an ETA is intended. Personally I have a lot of things going on in real-life. The amount of time I can spend to fix things is variable (which leads to an unpredictable schedule). Setting an ETA will either disappoint people (when the patch comes in late), or disappoint people (when I overestimate).
If you desperately need an ETA, I guess I'll play it safe and overestimate. You can count on it by Easter.
I don't want to say this weekend as an ETA since there's a significant probability that something may go wrong (postponing the opening day).
There are just too many variables in the mix to safely display an ETA.
The difference between successful people from others is
not in the lack of strength,
not in the lack of knowledge,
but rather in the lack of will.

Looking for a permanent fix not going to waste time with a fix that will get broken through just as fast as the last one.
Regardless of it being an immediate temp fix or not. What would be the point? play the game for an hour or so before the hacker realizes the servers back with a different name.

Proved wrong. I've changed the gametype significantly last Friday only to bring it down the next day.pulp wrote:Changing the server's identity is worth a try. Prove me wrong.

if this translates as server not crowded by necrophiles, then I'm game :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:pulp wrote: when you've got no user base left.
I'm not suggesting you change the gametype, I'm suggesting you change the IDENTITY. Give the server a new IP and a completely different name. A week has passed since the server was brought down - the hacker might not be bothered anymore to bring the server down again.Proved wrong. I've changed the gametype significantly last Friday only to bring it down the next day.
Try again. It'll take you a couple of minutes. You've got nothing to lose.
