Scheduled Extended Maintenance

[Henhouse]

Hi everyone,

This weekend, preferably around 11PM EST (05:00 server time) we will be bringing down the server for an extended maintenance. We estimate 2-3 hours of downtime.

I have not yet decided if I want to conduct pruning on 9-10+ month old inactive accounts yet, but it's possibly we will be doing that, so if you have an inactive account, login to it to insure it's not deleted.



This maintenance will consist of database cleanups, as well as implementing new system features such as 2-group system for battlegrounds and arena. This update will also conclude the 2nd to last step to removing the data blob---all player's skills will be extracted and put into their respective places in a new table.

We also have some very useful bug fixes hopefully rolling out too (hopefully). Things such as collision related fixes (no more falling under the world), Movement related fixes (supposedly fixes something with Mind Control?), some pushback/cc break on damage fixes, etc.
