Please be patient, I'm as anxious for PEQ to come back up as you are, I have a ton of work to merge in. At this point, we're just waiting for somebody to plug us back in and turn the server on. We own the server, not lease it so they won't do that automatically. Hopefully, they'll get to us soon!

At least the response means that your server is that beloved and people aren't just trying other servers.

Quick question, do they only work on the servers during business hours? Or could the server come up sometime during the night as well?

Considering they took it down at night, I would assume it could go back up at night as well. Though, normally when there is down time it comes back up in the morning/afternoon.

Cavedude's server is horrible. Nothing works right.
This is not the server you are looking for.

Hope that worked.

I cannot figure out if the above post is sarcasm or not.

Yes sarcasm. Cavedude's server is fast approaching perfection but if everyone knows that then his server will get melted with new people.

I knew it wouldn't work but I had to try.

u think its bad they locked down 2 buildings? laura bush was speakin on campus once and they had secret service playing dress up. i swear, i never saw so many lumberjacks and hippies on campus. i mean, it is oregon.... but damn man

in all seriousness, i have resorted to playing a couple hours of wow for god's sake.

i have also heard that they shut down internet traffic completely when important politicians are in town. i can't verify that, cuz no important politicians come to my home town...too small, cows can't vote.

We don't pay a dime, the machine is ours, and the bandwidth is free. We couldn't ask for a better deal, which is why I don't let downtime like this get me down too much.

Another update, they are having temperature control problems in the new space, so all non-essential machines are turned off until they can work that out. One issue after another it seems :(

extreme sadface :(

someone needs to explain to them that there are lives (raid mobs, etc) at stake -- essential doesnt even begin to describe the necessity for the PEQ box to be running!

You know Cavedude, when I see 'addicts' like this, you know you've done a great job with the PEQ server.
Congratulations! you're a great team player and a great person to deal with. I know you didn't do it all, but your good attitude/disposition orchestrated the outcome.
