I'm sorry VorterX I'm doing the best I can, I am sorry that the server has been non responsive, for some reason it just up and dies I just rebooted it at 12:10AM CST. I hope it will run well, and if you have a problem with my server why don't you try to run one yourself and see how hard it really is to keep it up constantly and go to school full time and work part time and deal with the rest of the hassles of life, trust me it's not all peachy here.... mabey I should just stop serving all together, belive me I have thought about it but to many people have put in to much time and effort into characters and modding for me to be that greedy and just trash everything they have done

ya...get a program like timbuktu so they can control your computer from anywhere (don't go ask a stranger if he can control your server while your gone though ).

Yeah Newbie you are doin a great job. This server has risen to be probably the most prestigious server currently running. I honestly never thought it would come this far. Your patience and the time you put into this is great. Thank you very much!

Apparently the server has ben acting up lately I will try to check it 4 times daily all times are in CST
7:00 AM before school
12:30 PM when I start work
5:30 PM when I get home
and sometime between 10pm-12am when I go to bed
if it does go down I will attempt to load some software like PC Anywhere that will allow me to restart it from work/school hopefully it will work

I remember when I was working nightshift and Newbie started the server on my comp. After a week I fuggin hated it, people would wine when I'd get home in the morning and try to look at porn. Or just surf the net.. people just look for a reason to ***** about sh!t..

Hmm.. one thing you could do tho is to have a function that uses down(%time); etc... to warn players, countdown, and run a #saveworld.... hell, maybe I'll even make one for when I get my server.

Binker was referring to about a year ago when I started the server it's now on it's own machine and only goes down when I need to take it off line (rarely) or if it crashes and hangs in which case I can't give a warning

function Down(%t)


{


	dbecho($dbechoMode, "Down(" @ %t @ ")");





	%tinsec = %t * 60;


	for(%i = %t; %i > 1; %i--)


	{


		%a = (%tinsec - (60 * %i));


		schedule("dmsg(" @ %i @ ", \"minutes\");", %a);


	}





	if(%tinsec > 60)


		%startfrom = 60;


	else


		%startfrom = %tinsec;





	for(%i = %startfrom; %i >= 1; %i -= 10)

Well not to be annoying and start a whole new thread, but for a heads up it is down at the moment.
