    why exactly do yall have to shut down i mean what do you do it for

    I'm making a Guess here so please don't bash if I'm wrong.

    Setting the server time itself is rather easy, HOWEVER things in Game Just as Dailies like Crazy stone are on a Timer. If The reset happens when say your down to 3 Minutes and the Clocks go back that can cause a glitch in your timer. Same thing could happen in Instances.

    So the 2 Hour time frame is so they can reset and also do a quick test and work out the bugs.

    Is this just server-side, or will we need a patch? And if we will need a patch, anyone have a link? Sorry, my IE doesnt work at all and I need to download any patches via link. b:thanks

    It's really only down for one hour. That hour just happens to fall on when the clock is set back therefore it has to repeat itself......

    It's Just server side as far as I know and have seen. No Patches unless they sneak one in

    Hey guys, it's unfortunate, but we're going to have to turn off the servers for approximately two hours on Saturday night / Sunday morning to account for Daylight Savings Time.

    2 hours to change the clock?

    Remember, it's only an hour after the time goes back, lol. The second hour is just a replay of the first, basically...

    The two hours is so the hamsters in the wheels that run the servers can change the time on their own clocks.

    I'd Just like to point out to all those that are QQ'ing....

    Be Happy that this thread is even here. Seriously think about the void of Forum Mods upto about a Month ago. Almost Non existent or They where to Busy Hiding because people bashed them. Frankie Gave us notice (many appearently where to wrapped up in the dbl xp, spirit and drops event including myself to think about reading the forums) She/he is trying to improve the communication between Staff and the Players. So Give em a break and Just wait it out.

    To the staff Yes there have been times when I've been frustrated with you but it is after all a Large GAME lots need to be done. Over all your working hard and trying to reach a compromise between every one who wants or desire's something in game. Strong effort on EVERYONE'S Part Player and Staff alike. Good Job
