Server upgrade & extended maintenance - May 18th

Post by Henhouse »

Tonight, May 17th around 10:30PM EST, or 04:30 server time GMT+1, we will be bringing the server down for maintenance and cleanups so we can easily transport the databases over to a new server that we are upgrading to. If you are curious what is getting upgraded in terms of specs, please see this thread: http://www.smolderforge.com/forums/view ... f=4&t=5734


Due to the nature of changing servers many of you may have trouble connecting for a maximum of one day while DNS is flushed. Our "connect.smolderforge.com" address may not update for you for ~24 hours if you're really unlucky and will keep pinging the old server location when we've already moved to a new one. If you seem to be experiencing trouble connecting once we are back up I recommend using the direct IP address in your realmlist to connect to the new server for a time being. If you find yourself unable to connect once we're up, please use this realmlist:
set realmlist 87.119.221.5
This maintenance is projected to take roughly 2.5 - 3 hours. Thank you for your understanding.

While you're doing that can you possibly undo the changes on the 15th that affected macros somehow? ^_^

New server has been powering Smolderforge for a few days now. Any improvements noticed? Thoughts?

No decrease or increase on Imperium's playtime I've noticed.
