POE Tuesday, 31-MAR-09...



What was up with the server around 8:30PM-9:30PM CDT? Things were just starting to get fun and then we seemed to get hit with something that just dropped everyone from the server with zero warning. Happened at least twice. Very strange.

It made me sad.

I don't get this on any server but Tactical Gamer, maybe someone should look into reinstalling it? It literally kicked a third of the server at one point last night. On top of the 2 big crashes it completely killed the night.

Yea we peaked at about 40 and then crash, boom, bang. A lot of people tried to come back after the first one but then the 2nd crash hit and we lost about half our players. We were having a lot of fun up till that point... it was a shame.

I get that at least a couple of times a session as well. I've heard that particular check can be disabled on the server. Can we make this happen?

Lets see if this is any better on Friday - I have adjusted a setting. Not promising anything but I am hopeful.

I had restarted the server earlier. I guess it reset the setting.

Luckily, no MD5 for me tonight, but I did get a PB timout. Unlike MD5, there was no wait to get back in game.
