Well now they are back to July data base and yes 10mil plus eagle is the startup of the hour/day/week/ Maybe they think this will help to get more people on to test things.

Oh what the heck, may as well right? It's kind of like gambling. At some point, they're going to stabilize the server, and if you've made enough 10 mill ships you can cash in right?

Wow. Looks like everything is back (haven't checked all accounts yet) even if it is in the July configuration. And we get 10 mil eagles for a short period of time. We should be able to make up for lost time then--assuming it holds of course.

Rolls the dice, spins the 1 bullet loaded cylinder, pulls the arm of the slot machine after u put in your last coin, runn behind a bull and smacks it on the ass, takes a jump across a ditch full of gators, reach inside a hole under the water hopn it is a catfish and not sumthn that will make you count to 3 and no more on one hand, ECT<ECT ECT> any1 got anymore?
Just keep playn and log in.....remember the admins have promised that we get everything that we have lost. That is if as TGK said"assuming it holds of course" ... Everytime you see a Admin or staff tell them thanks and give moral support. We do play for free and have the option to donate if we want. Just have fun and don't go overboard with changes that may be lost and then flustrations starts. Ancient1

Well put, Ancient1. I have found out some more info. Apparantly you're allowed to create and transfer 50 mil. After that, it starts to be considered abuse, and you risk a ban. (No, I didn't get yelled at--Deltafox announced that he was watching.)
So far the server looks good, but they really need to load test it.

Whoops... I was doing it, while talking to him I wondered if the message was aimed at me?

Well I was on for about an hour this AM and server never crashed. Just on few minutes ago and server is crashing every 2-3 minutes!!! It is impossible to even make ships and cash them in, it is that bad. So I guess it is a waste of time to even try. This may be the end of FLU.

Whoops... I was doing it, while talking to him I wondered if the message was aimed at me? Huh. I didn't see you, or I would have said hello! Of course, I was just coasting ships myself, hence I wasn't looking...my bad! As far as deliberatley corrupting an account, I guess it's pretty easy. Back on GOI the limit was 100 weapons, but for some reason here it's either 60 or 80--I forget which. It's easy enough to do accidently. Still, I thought when you corrupted an account, that was it for you--you couldn't log in anymore. To keep crashing the server...I'm sticking with my hardware failure theories. Either the ram is bad or the hard drive is glitching. I've seen ram do this kind of thing before. I've sent a pm to Robo on this, but I don't know if he ever got it. You know how it is with admin pm boxes. They get 50 a day and stuff gets lost. Nothing you can do about it. TGK

Just logged on and guess what ALL CHARS GONE AGAIN and all accounts set at ZERO. No fracking bank funds ARRRGGGGH. A1 I have a box of tissues for you, bought myself a case. I just wish they would post something about what the he** is going on. Like is this it or just a temp step or something.

No more tears for me. I'm totally numb now. Besides, at this point they can't think it's the data files. They've got to be looking at hardware, or reinstalling windows, etc. There's no way to do that without a wipe.
And of couse, they can't see if what they're doing is working unless they have enough players on.
As a troubleshooting problem, it's got to drive you to drink.
One thing is certain: we are seeing the true depth of Robocop's dedication to this server. If he hasn't given up by now, then once things are settled, you can be sure we'll be able to play here for a long time, in my opinion.

Talked briefly with Robo this AM, he is still not sure what is causing the problem. It only seems to happen when 15 or more players are on. He is thinking it might be someone using a bad/illegal mod but not sure. And so it goes.

Of course, I was just coasting ships myself, hence I wasn't looking...my bad! TGK You were afk... I did actually try asking you ingame whether the message had come up on your screen as well as my own? I was just talking to DeltaFox about the problems (he believed it was the startas commands) when he suddenly went afk just as I launched my dummy ship. Shortly afterwards the "You are being watched" message appeared. Annoyingly, I spent about 3 hours yesterday sorting all my ships out again.
