    Update: Servers have been brought back up and stabilized. We are deeply sorry about the inconvenience, and as a thank you for sticking with us, we're going to turn on 2x EXP/Spirit/Drops this weekend!

    So starting Friday 3/25 at Noon PST, and ending on Monday 3/28 at Noon PST, you guys will get the full 2x treatment :)

    I know that it was stated that they are fixing the east coast servers but are they doing anything about west coast ones? I am on Heavens Tear and I have been kicked so many times during the night that i am totally frustrated. And are only the east coast servers getting the 2x xp/sp/drops?

    seriously, why can't some people just read the whole thread before posting?

    here's one for the lazies:
    All servers will get to enjoy 2x. Fact is, we've been having more server problems than usual over the past 10 days or so. I believe we've had RT, DW, HL, LC, and HT all go down individually at one point or another recently, so this 2x is a game-wide thank you to all of you for putting up with us ;)

    furthermore, what do you guys expect them to do? fix the servers at 4AM? get real.
    contrary to popular belief, GMs actually need sleep and have lives. get over it.
    there are no stupid questions, just a lot of inquisitive idiots.

    Hmm, so the attackers have switched targets. Looks like they might be ramping up for a much larger attack if they can sustain it.

    Also of note: several games that I play (not related to PWE) are being DoS attacked. I'ma go check WoWs boards and see what they got over there. If they're having issues then we've got a serious group attack happening.

    Edit: So far, found nothing indicating DoS problems. :/

    Archosaur, Sanctuary have gone down too. Many times. And momentary lapses of pure lag.

    So it isnt just east coast servers, its every single server.

    Just figured I would point that out, since for some reason we are focused on 'just' the east coast ones.

    And a weekend of 2x? Really isnt going to appease a lot of those people who were dc'ed in CoA and lost 600 orbs, ijs.

    East coast is down again.

    Might be best to postpone 2x until next week at the least.

    *sighs*

    HT is starting a new challenge .. Who can stay logged in the longest ... Dc after Dc after DC

    Going be fun trying to Tw if they don't fix this asap ...

    Weekend of x2 to compensate .. I think the GM's need to rethink that timeframe

    Yeh I think what frankie meant to say was 2x DC during the weekend and there will also be a sale on DC packs and DC orbs b:chuckle

    Looking at other boards from PWE games it seems like the FW staff is the only one being upfront about the DDoS attacks.. On the other hand, it's really not up to PWE/PWI to handle this since they can only do so much, it's up to the ISP now.. Makes me wonder what PWE/PWI did to make someone angry enough to DDoS them for a week o.O

    What's the point of 2x drops if we can't stay logged on long enough to farm anything?

    It's not just the east coast servers, Sanctuary is having issues too. you should see west arch. It's practically a ghost town.

    Took me a couple hours just to be able to log in to post this. Kept getting a 500 error after clicking the login link.

    Any ideas on what's happening? Server over capacity or something?

    servers getting attacked apparantly b:surrender

    All of PWEs games are being targeted, on both east and now west coast servers.

    Several other non-PWE games are also being DDoS attacked. This a group effort to try and shut servers down.

    This could last for months if the attackers are willing to do so.

    I think the title of this sticky is a bit misleading; it implies that PWE hasn't recognized or acknowledged the west coast server issues.

    If it was renamed it would help make it more clear for all the people who are making new threads. b:surrender

    Or until the culprits are traced and shut down.

    Depends on how much time and effort PWE is willing to put into this.

    This isn't the first time that online games have been targeted by such attacks.

    It isnt about repairing the servers, folks. Its about catching the guys causing it.

    I just hope that they aren't causing irreparable damage to the servers. That would not be a good thing :-/
