    Hey folks,

    Our engineers are continuing to work on addressing the connection issues. Still no ETA, but you all will know the second we have one. Thank you for your continued patience.

    Most likely because more of the playerbase would be following NW on social media rather than the forums.

    But them social media sites are just EVIL! :s Ugh guess i'll have to login one of them sites for the updates.

    Umm, New Year's Eve is not a holiday. I'm at work right now, as most people are. Why does everyone keep calling today a holiday?

    Anyway, I'm sure things will be fixed within an hour or so. No sweat. :)

    Happy New Year!

    That's me being dumb; I work in education, so I forget that it's not a holiday for most people in "normal" private-sector jobs. Happy New Year, either way -- hope you guys who have to work get to enjoy your evening.

    Thanks for keeping us posted, Akro. I feel bad now that it's turning out to be such a big problem. D:

    The problem is Facebook sorts out different countries. I have no message of some of your guys on the officiall neverwinter facebook pages.

    I was looking in the white part of the internet and no all the other servers in the east coast of the US are fine, some of them, like League of Legends, fix problems relative to DoS attacks, end of year, the guys from the darker part of internet like this date.

    The problem are not coming from something like a DoS, there is them two possibilities, a strategic attack focus on some vulnerability in game or a internal problem in the server, caused possible by the year change, as some functionalities are attached direct to date and its common to have this kind of trouble.

    In the first case its possible that they may not fix the problem, in the second case they may need to restore a entire database of character and it is time consuming, restore of any kind take time to be done, and if they for instance need to do it from an image it going to need the correct professional plus authorization, 3 hours minimum.

    Just guessing here are we don't have any information.

    For what it's worth, everything on the East Coast for PWE is on the fritz at the moment, from what I've gathered perusing ARC and other PWE boards.

    Wow, it only took me 2 hours to be able to post a reply here... backwards and forwards with usernames passwords emails and the like.. Well now I'm here and ....

    ...

    I have nothing constructive to say except.
    1. HAPPY NEW YEAR
    2. I started drinking so early, I'm already at the pizza stage!
    3. Please do your best on the servers - but if you feel the need for a beer - DON'T spill it over the blades.
    4. Is Akro really dyeing hair pink as rumored?

    That is what I saw on the PWI forums. Might be weather related? I seriously hope this isn't another DDoS >_>

    The weather is all clear here in this part of the NE US.

    And it's not an earthquake...anything above a 2 is exceedingly rare here.

    I once worked with someone who was also a storm-chaser, and he constantly complained about how bored he was while living here.
