Originally posted by zephar123 I agree with you, thats why I think there adding the new server they talk about for accoutns. you would shut it down for such a process. they stated that the current one would not work right. I am not sure what they are doing. If I had to guess.... The forums server is at a different geographical location then the web server. Since the forum server has been off for the better part of the day I would say they took down the forums on purpose. They were getting hammered pretty hard by the critics last night and it would not suprise me if they took it down for damage control. I have not checked the website, so I have no idea what is going on. I will post once I check on it. -Atziluth- - Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

The server just isnt there atm, so its not a DDOS attack. Also you can add servers to a network dynamically, so no need to pull the entire server down for that. There are 3 types of people in the world. 1.) Those who make things happen 2.) Those who watch things happen 3.) And those who wonder "What the %#*& just happened?!"

Looks like their mods are policing these forums now since theirs are broken. Honestly, what is the point of locking/banning? Is everyone complete aware of technology these days?

Originally posted by atziluth Originally posted by DrinkFeck I was under the impression it was DDoS attacks? This is different from yesturday. Now there is 100% packet loss and no latency tracing to their network. This would indicate that they have shut off the forum server. Things some times have to be shut down to work on them.

A day without flaming and complaining would be reason to shut down the servers for damage contro las something is just not right.

And i will point out the fact that you cannot possibly know the true answer in either case. Your assumptinos do have evidence to back them up, granted, but that does not mean they are correct as it is merely using the information and extrapolating. I am not at all saying you are "attacking" anyone, merely that you do not know definitively that it is actually a different reason as to why the forums may have been shut down.

I reckon it's a bit like the scene on board a Star Trek vessel: Captain Tasos - "Scottie, shut down all power to the forums and divert energy to the game-release tubes. We're gonna release this bitch once and for all!" Scottie - "Aye aye cap'n" "A large explosion can be heard from the Bridge" Scottie - "Oh shite, we dunny have the power cap'n, or the funds!" Captain Tasos - "Fuck" Why are there so many cutesie, fantasy, childish MMO's. Give me blood, gore and a long lasting challenge. I don't need my hand being held along the way. Thanks.

Well considering its the best evidence we have so far, it's safe to say at the moment that they were pulled down, until AV gives us reason to think otherwise. He who keeps his cool best wins.

I will conceed that they might have taken down the servers because of a DDOS attack this morning... It would seem strange and horrible unprofessional though. Their lack of any kind of security is appauling. Even if the game is great I will be hesitent to give them any CC info. I think it is more likely that they took the servers down because of the rampant flaming that was going on last night. Moderating those boards must have been a nightmare. -Atziluth- - Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

Problem is you are given reasons and proof and beta forum qoutes and REVIEWS (The Noob) but that's not enough proof... however a forum being down and the fact that "you" (everyone complaining) didn't get in is proof.

Originally posted by harmonica Couldn't this also indicate that they shut it down DUE to the attacks? Actually the whole point of mounting a DDoS attack is to make the server 'drop'.

Forumfall has a rep for being a dangerous place to post. I doubt that they decided to suddenly seize up because people wanted to whine about their lack of being in the beta. That seems... highly unlikely to me at this point. They have had alot of flak for years now, i don't think one storm is gonna push them over the edge. Though i will say that the DOS stuff may have been a good reason to shut them all up for awihle in conjunction with what ever other reason they may have had.
