Problem with our database computer
Our Database computer has rebooted yesterday and the login process was not restarted so it was not possible to login on wiki/forums/graal.net, I have restarted the process manually and made sure it will restart on next reboot.

I will probably have to transfer the databases on a new computer; will tell you more when I will make the maintenance.

It seems the database is down now, so login to Graal/website etc. will probably not work for a few hours. We are sorry for the down time.

If he's not at the data center, I doubt he would be able to do much of anything about it. Stefan does get on Graal at times at home, so it's possible that he's not at the data center. He may have to call unixmad or head over to the data center himself to restart the database or so. It could take some time.

He probably has to go there and do it himself, this is why it might be a few hours.

So you are stopping the charging of our accounts right now? I certainly didn't pay to not be able to logon.

$41/365...=$0.11......(value of one day of gold)
$0.11/24..=$0.004....(value of one hour of gold)
$0.004*3..=$0.01.....(value of three hours of gold)

Do you want your penny now, or later? I understand it's a pain in the ass, especially since this is the weekend and people (such as myself and a few of my buddies) wanted to get on and play some Graal - but going on about gold time with something like this seems fairly pointless.

Yes, give me my penny. I come home because the movie at the friend's house sucked. I turn on Sportscenter and double-click Graal to enjoy myself, and surprise surprise, it's down.

Yes, my two friends and I both departed one another's house to go to our own and play Graal (Zodiac) but find the server list is down and that the Graal Arguments no longer work - so we can't login without the server.

And on account of the bitter coldness outside there's nothing else for us to do now, so as I said - I understand.

Well you don't still go to highschool do you? I have two nights which allow me to play into the wee hours without having to worry about homework, or studying for a test, or waking up early.

It's not Stefan's fault you have other priorities. I'm sure there are players that still go to high school and have homework but still "play into the wee hours" most nights. Chill.

No, however I am in my second and final year of a Graphics Design Diploma, and we're currently in mid-terms. As I said, I understand your frustration.

And I'm sure you notice that the majority of the players' IQs suffer from that.

I play/work into the wee hours of the morning and frequently skip class - I don't think it's affected my IQ too much. Perhaps my attendance mark, but not my IQ

Most MMORPGs are sometimes down due to server matinence. When has Graal ever been down for 'matinence'? Pretty much never right? Things happen, think about how the servers are always up except in the rare instance that they crash sometimes. This is an MMORPG and stuff happens.

I don't think you can say pretty much never anymore, as this isn't the first time this black screen on login problem has happened.

Graal isn't like most other MMORPG's, so stop making the comparisons because they differ immensely.

Yay, downtime wasn't too bad. Could have been worse.
