European restart

tc_topcat · #1 07-18-2003, 03:43 PM

Is there anybody who can restart the kingdoms server within Europe....because I've seen it crash out, but we have to wait until the americans come to restart it

We need an active european to restart it during the hours america aint online

I agree, either that or better means to contact those who already have the required rights. Maybe some command to send them an urgent message, which the NPCServer blocks, so it only gets through when the server is down... Something like that. Seeing how few people there are with NPC-starting rights anyway, I wonder whether there are any active europeans who would be entrusted with that...

OR You could move to America, Canada, Mexico, or Cuba. But I dont think Cuba will let you in.

Stefan said he is working on the player managing tools. I asked what it was but he didn't say, so I don't know if he will be allows some more players accesss to restarting the NPC Server or what.

I'm honestly not trying to be stupid here.
People that need the power to restart the NPC Server are EMs.
Reasons being:
1)There's always atleast one EM person on at a time.
2)If it goes down during an event, EM needs the power to bring it back for their event.

=/

I wouldn't say every EM should get these rights. Some maybe, but not for the sake of all-time-coverage. Also, it shouldn't matter whether there's an event or not °°

I know it shouldn't matter, but it would be imporant if it was.

Doesn't Stefan live in europe o.O?

Satrek2000 · #10 07-18-2003, 10:43 PM

He does, and he is active - but he might not be in range to restart the server, or just not notice it. And, even he needs hit time off and can't be arround all the time.

america=i'd rather get a kick in the teeth(i will say no more than that in fear of an argument from americans)

Canada=hmmm seems nice ppl..nicer than some other nationalies

Mexico=yipee me habla espanol

Cuba=aint that got some bad government

Graal is a European server so why shouldn't there be more euopeans allowed to do things??? At leat we got Hamada as EM, its good to have european in charge of some things rather than just americans

HeroHua · #13 07-26-2003, 03:03 PM

Yet again, server has gone down at a European time...we need more European RC to re-boot! :grrr:

Amoun · #14 07-26-2003, 03:13 PM

This is just one nationalistic arguement waiting to happen

Anyhow, i think a simple solution is to have a sort've IRC or html chat room or something, to where you can go and anything who can reset server whether they be on the game or not, are in that room, and can be told if it goes down obviously with so many people livingin in different places there will always be someone, + there probably should be 1 or 2 more resetters at the most, but not many, if any ems should get it i say Tseng or James, all the time at least one of those 2 people is on. Sometimes though because i myself would like to be able to do this since im on sometimes when americans arnt even tho i live in america, i'm on during europian hours but not often. Anyhow this matter is semi-complicated on who to trust etc.

It would be good if there were a few people who had the ability to restart server and they would have different shifts.... so even if they were'nt playing they would be responsible for checking every so often to be sure the server was alive and well.
