Hello All,

We're aware that some realms are currently inaccessible and our Database Administrators are currently looking into the situation. We'll have more information as we receive it.

It appears that there may be a service outage in the vicinity of the affected realms. We're currently looking into the situation and we hope to have a resolution in a timely manner. Unfortunately, we are unable to give any solid information on this just yet, as it is not an internal matter. We will keep you posted with any new information as we receive it.

Q u o t e:
If it is out of their hands to fix it, how are they "looking into the issue."?

Bornakk holding a gun to internet guys head: "Turn the internet back on now... turn it back on if you want to see your family again..."



We look into the issue by making many calls to our respective affiliates in the area inquiring as to how, why and what is affecting realm service. Unfortunately, sometimes these things are not elements which we have any control over, as is the case here. Fortunately, it appears that the issue has begun to clear itself up and we should be able to bring our realms back online in the next hour.

All realms should now be available for play. Thank you for your patience while we worked through the service outage.

All my pent energy waiting for the realms to come back up was rapidly released when I logged in; I set a new money making record of 500g in one hour.

I'm fairly impressed. It usually takes me double that to complete half my dailies.
