Apparently they've had some dificulty with the FLU server, and a lot of characters have suddenly dissapeared. I've checked four accounts so far, and only one was ok. There's a thread about it: www.freelancer-universe.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&p=82195#82195If you're missing anything, I suggest you post something so they have some idea of the scope--unless they say not to in the thread later. The main message here is:Don't Panic. It's not just you. Kurile has a call into Robo. We'll see how it goes and adjust accordingly. TGK

Yeah, I lost all of my eagles, my storage, and the Rook is gone. Still checking. - Lost the miner, Aussau[LT], and a bomber also. Could be worse though, coulda've lost everything. I'm sure it'll get sorted, for the time being, I'll chill in a flea in NY. -Already fixed. Everything is back as far as I can tell.

Most of my chars--not all mind you--are back. I just sent a PM about the miner, because it's still gone. But the battleship and Repair ship are back. Not sure about the De.

Yeah I didn't even know this happened until after the backups had been restored. I've got everything, even my trappy Titan I made only a fortnight ago.

Yeah I've only got one store left--and it's a cloaking valk, so I'm thankful I moved it not to long before the purge. I still haven't got the miner back, but Robo hasn't read my pm yet either. It's a holday weekend in the US, so I'm hoping he's just on vacation.
I'm seriously considering starting every morning by setting up a different ship afk in a cruise-straif drifting across space for at least 20 minutes. If I happen to go out for a couple of hours, so be it. It's not like there's 64 people on the server.
Which is another interesting point. I'm wondering if there's enough new traffic on the server to justify the draconian requirements. GOI did a purge once a year, or every six months at best, and all you had to do was touch each char once to keep em. I know it was an Austrailian server, and in theory would get less traffic. But it seems like FLU is in about the same place as GOI was a year, year and a half ago, if memory serves.
I lost my looting ships and an several fighters. Some stuff got restored, but obviously they felt some hadn't been played often enough.
The really annoying loss is Assau[LT]. I imagine it' just not worth having an LT in theta for the ammount of piracy. I wonder though if Robo would be ammenable to restoring it and moving it to cambridge? We could run some pretty massive convoys then.
I'll send a PM and find out. In the mean time, I'm still moving my surviving fleet to Bretonia, and then I'm going to start rebuilding. If the miner doesn't get restored, I plan on making a point of restoring it myself just to prove it's an active ship.

Ok. I got replies from robo, and he's willing to restore Aussau[LT] and Proper_Precautions .
We need to make new ships in the same account with the same name so he can do the restore. I'll take care of Proper, but I can't find the code for Aussau[LT]. (could someone send that to me? Thx.)
I'm going to have him move Aussau[LT] over to cambridge as well, so that we can run some huge convoys to 19. In theory, we could have 3 lt's and a miner flying together. The firepower would be staggering. ;D
Thx,
TGK

Ok. I've got two starfleas set up as targets for Robo, and PMed him the names of the ships. I've asked him to move Aussau[LT] to cambridge with the miner, so that we can do more convoy work. With Max-a-million, Bonkellium, Aussault and Proper Precautions, we could be moving close to 5800 Lux foods to the Hawaii per run.
I don't know if he can restore the support ships, but I asked. We'll see. If not, then I'll do some runs with max, and buy some new AT2's for the accounts.

If you're mostly missing nomads from the stores, I wouldn't even worry about them. The Cap ships roll through nomads. ;D TGK
