    Hello again, here am i again and looks like this are going fine, they are follow the rules and now as i predicted 3 hours past and the server was restored, we may need to wait a little longer, as the system need to be sync, i mean you need to restore the characters and the account as equal as it possible.

    They are doing this by the book and we may need to wait for more 2 hours until they have all rollbacked, to the last state possible.

    Some of us may lose rank points for instance from the last match, look in to the static facts, but as the restore was the action choose, we may have this problem again, and it's make me think about the real problem here.

    As we all know they can't reveal some information, as it is sensible to the business, but rest assured that they are trying to do the best to restore the game first, and only then will look for the cause.

    Standard procedure in this cases, good luck guys and have a nice one.

    Well - seems like the haggis at last got loose, and found a sponsor in Tiamat. Well of Dragons is now taken over by tartan clad meatballs partying for two days.

    Has a red dot in the left hand upper corner that says it's down. Why bother logging in? :)

    Haggis is a specialist dish of Scotland - often quoted to be a wild animal. Much more ferocious than hamsters.

    I really would like to know what caused the outage, as a techy, I like to know that type of information, I hate being kept in the dark

    The only thing I've ever seen that could tombstone the LAN stack is duplication & replication. Servers are probably a mesh network mass replication causes mass duplication because of one technical error in SLC routing statements.

    Probably both.

    Hey everyone,

    We are aware of the problems that are occurring for Neverwinter right now. We'll keep you updated on our progress towards a solution.

    It has now been 6 hours. Can you update the original post, with some sort of information. Starting to feel abandoned.

    Thx

    Here's the issue.

    Engineers do not have forum accounts. The moderators here are going to hear a foreign language when the engineers speak to them.

    The cannot update the status largely because they probably have no CIO whose job it is to translate the neckbeard-speak into the public speak.

    To people asking for updates: Akromatik has already posted that when there is new information to post (e.g. something other than "We're still working on it, no ETA yet") he will update the community.

    Until then, please be patient.

    Yeah, even with my know-how, some of this is still so far beyond me that all I'd get from any technical explanation is "Tab A, slot B again."

    At any rate, from what I've been able to gather across PWE's Network O' Forums is that the East Coast datacenter is still on the fritz.

    and they wonder why we maintain our own data centers and don't move to "The Cloud" providers

    Pfft that depends how long you work with them. you do pick up the jargen, IF your not a "neckbeard" yourself just on a low paied admin job while you go to collage.

    What is more likely is their resetting things and going things one as a time to work out where the problem is. Process of elimination, and that's if it is something that can be fixed, then there is systems rebooting that need rebooting, reload times, back up transfer.. a BIG long list that will take forever to type up and longer to read. to keep it short, they have a big dragon load of stuff to check, reboot, recheck, tinker with and back up. So their more likely trying to get it going, at the moment systems have an amber light, and they don't want to post another update until its something meaningful. WHICH I can more then understand. so in the Mean time lets go spend time with family, friends or other games, and give the staff the time they need to get things working once more.
