I wanted to notify you guys of a server outage that will extend throughout tonight and into tomorrow.  I was checking the disk system remotely as part of a regular status check.  The box appears to have BSOD'd when I accessed the nVidia control panel.  WTG nVidia.  Your chipsets suck.

ANYWAY, I tasked a tech with bouncing the box, but they appear to have hit the wrong one.  We're after hours now and I won't get a second shot to get the box online until tomorrow.  Until then it'll be offline as well as all other services (GMod, TS3, Vent, etc).

I'm not on MSN tonight either because Windows on my desktop decided to f'k up.  MSN, PowerDirector, and Skype all crash with an error about a Visual C++ runtime error that appears unresolvable.  I'm going to have to reinstall flipping Windows because of it, and that makes me want to sh*t fire.  That's of course not your guys' problem but it does present a communication limitation short term.  Just email me at noTspaTmatpcTrpgdTotorg (remove the capital Ts and of course replace at and dot with symbols) or ICQ me at 34891584 in the mean time if you need something or just want to chat.

The last clear was 2,739 days ago as of March 28, 2012.  We're more or less eternal by this point.

Light from our sun has been to all three stars in the Centauri system since, passed Barnard's star years ago, and will be visiting Wolf 359 this July (2012).

You may have noticed that some services came up a few hours ago.  The NIC configuration was all forked up.  PCRPG itself should be up soon.

will this fix stop the server from crashing multiple times a day or is that something else?

I've yet to figure that one out exactly, but this last problem is unrelated to that.  The server crashes some number of hours after it starts, plus one minute.  Often 2-4 (plus one minute).  Not sure why.

i know some servers done this in the past but what about killing the bots automatically after there is no one in the zone? think how many bots spawn just for me to go into mines and leave to get to super spike.
