PEQ is down again ??

Clearly you know nothing of systems administration, or much about computers in general. There are plenty of reasons why a system might not boot properly after a problem that has nothing to do with changes being made to the system.

And ultimately, that person's statement was merely a guess. There is no evidence to suggest his guess is correct. In fact, there is some limited evidence to the contrary. Best I can tell, the server has not been rebooted yet. But that is still a guess based upon very limited evidence.

And, assuming I am correct and the server has not yet been rebooted, no, I do not know why not. But before certain people get into a tissy fit about this, consider that since the evidence is very limited one way or the other, the system may have been rebooted and simply still not be responding for reasons unknown.

Wtf dude, you should probably stop the assumptions then.

You also just made 2 posts that completely contradict each other. I posted the following:

and you post

Then you completely reverse your story a few posts later and say exactly the same thing I said?!?!??

wtf?

I said the server has not been rebooted as far as I can tell. I also stated that what you said in the following quote was incorrect:

How do my two statements conflict with each other? Apparently you are unable to see that FNW could have been informed and responded so we know he is aware of the problem, but at the same time the server has not yet been rebooted. Your statement said FNW probably had not read an email and the hosting company had not been called. But we got a response from FNW so we know he was aware of the problem. This shows that your statement that you think cavedude merely sent an email to FNW and FNW had not yet read it was wrong.

There is a difference between the server not being rebooted and people not being informed that the server needs to be rebooted. Your statement above (first quote in this message) says you do not believe people at the hosting company were informed. My statement says the server was not rebooted. The two are not discussing the same thing.

Based upon your logic, asking someone to do something is exactly the same as it having been done. Those of us with children know that is often not the case

In any case, I'm getting very tired of your attitude. You appear to only be here to cause trouble and be negative. So far, your posts have all been speculation without any evidence. They have all been very negative and at best have been questioning how things have been handled. At worst, they have, for all intents and purposes, accused the devs of incompetence. I have yet to see a single post you have made in this thread that was of any use to anyone.

Apparently you are so frustrated with being unable to play on PEQ that you feel you should try to make life miserable for those who are putting their time and effort in to providing you a game to play at no cost to you. I am politely asking you to stop now, before my patience runs out.

Need I say more?

When ever someone plays the video game everquest alot of hard work and time goes in to playing the game so when the server is down emotions run high.

What many people do not seem to realize is that there is this thing called life outside of this screen you are reading my post from now.

I have played EQ for years and years on and off, and time away from EQ when you didnt want to separate is hard, but life goes on people.

Gaeorn and others who are still active guardians of PEQ are in the same boat as all of us and i am sure want nothing more than to be back online and killing stuff.

I for one have been spending more time with the gf and making her happy, and also got a 15 page paper done that is not even due till the end of the semester.

Once Gaeorn gets more custody of PEQ good things will happen.

Dont think all of us are upset, most of us do see and very much value the hard work you and others put in to this server and i have nothing negative to say about how anything has really been handled. Because SHIT HAPPENS

I don't have any attitude, you tried to claim I'm some kind of idiot that doesn't know anything about computers. I was talking about technical issues only such as two $800 raid cards being astronomically expensive for a 300 population server since the hard drives don't even exceed the i/o capability of a pentium 4 southbridge.
