The devs will have data on what caused the server down/problems. If what you are asking is the case, it will be noted and dealt with, as has happened previously. I doubt this is the case tho.

From what I understand, all three servers suffered a "connectivity issue". This was then fixed and unfortunately Arispotle "died" immediately after it "came back". Or something like that anyways.

Thank you that is what I asked.

We jested about this on guild chat a bit yesterday. I actually was asking for the program (exploit) to do it when I wanted. But nobody would own up =P

I know there have been situations on beta where the server could be made reboot with a high degree of certainty.

There is now the situation on ATS that it reboots if you use TP tickets.

Sure its possible that people found a way to force the server to reboot but I assume that if its something obvious then the devs would notice and fix it (or disable it) asap.

I was asking that because 80% from the recent crashes happened between same hours (2.00-4.00 GMT). And I still remember the crashfest from beta.

Like I said it must be just my paranoia about hackers and exploiters


PS The crash imediatelly after the merge does not count
