Zodiac?

Alright, since no one has really released any information on the current situation, I will.

We were originally just gonna do a 3 day rollback, due to the recent glitch abuses. Some players thought it would be a great idea to exploit two bugs that allowed you to dupe items, and they duped hundreds of thousands of items. Mainly fishes to be honest, but also good gear.

Since they had been giving those items out, and selling them for money to NPCs, the rollback was essential.

When Vulcan logged on to do the rollback, we talked about the current systems and how most of them are clientsided (which makes them easily hacked), he decided that we would not reopen until some things were converted to serverside, which is what we are currently in the process of doing.

This will take a few days, perhaps even a week or two. I can't honestly say how long it will take, at all, so don't take my estimation all too seriously.

We thank you all for your patience, and we are doing our very best to get the server back up.

I have to laugh at how much Yen boasted about his systems being scripted the best ever.

I've been discussing an upgrade for the systems of late. He knows the current systems better than I could ever hope for. The suggestions were discussed, problems were ironed out. I think they could work

It benefits myself as much as Zodiac. In the end, I intend to release the framework for the system I make.

Well, Rufus got removed. :/

Because the PWAs are scared of Unixmad. No one fears the whiny brats who call themselves 'Anti-Unixmad' except Unixmad himself. Cowardly, if you ask me, removing a perfectly good manager out of fear of their boss's own insecurities?

That helps nothing. You've only taken away from the players if you do that. It's not fair and won't get us anywhere.
