EverQuest2 is Dead

[Sir Taleisin The Seer]

Everything posted below is pointless
Sleep well noble MMORPG, we hardly knew ye.
Yet so many of us left our nice semi-safe homes in Everquest1 to be with you.
Now as the final hours close, and the first of the "world wipe" commands are typed, we wish you well.
No human, drow or dwarf thinks more highly than I do of the competence, as well as abilities, of the very worthy devs who have just addressed the major server crash.
But different people often see the same subject in different lights; and, therefore, I hope it will not be thought disrespectful to those gentlemen if, entertaining as I do opinions of a character very opposite to theirs, I shall speak forth my sentiments freely and without reserve.
This is no time for ceremony. The questing before the devs is one of awful moment to these everquest comunitys. For my own part, I consider it as nothing less than a question of freedom; and in proportion to the magnitude of the subject ought to be the freedom of opinion. It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to the lost Gods and our shared yet shattered world.
Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards the players, and of an act of disloyalty toward my UI mod fans, which I revere above of my other fans....

I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me modding or give me perma-death!

Sir Taleisin,

This down time reminds me of Beta and how we stress tested the chat channels on a regular basis

Talking about being down, think you can kick start the Seti page. Seems everything stalled back on Dec3. Now it says on the page a way to kick start it. Have you done so already or is it dead for good?

Thanks

wow....talk about over reacting!!! lol (1st post) lol

[orion7_11]

yes if it's possible can you kick Seti Stat page in the rear end...please....

Note: Occasionally the daily scripts that create this file failto generate each page correctly. If you think this has happened, then thefounder of this team can regenerate this file at any time by doing the following:

Click on "Edit this Group".
Enter the founder's SETI@home email address and password.
Click on the "Edit Group" button at the bottom of that page.

Would be much appreciated.

aye I've been having to manually reset the SETI team page, it should be normal ( or close to it ) tomorrow morning.

ohh and I thought this would be much better than just the standard way people complain about the servers being down

<EDIT> the seti team page has been refreshed
