Perhaps I should re-sticky this if people want to start using it again.
As a point of history:  Our last server clear was on September 27, 2004.  That is 4963 days ago (13.6 years) as of today.

If you're visiting after a long hiatus and have forgotten your password, try emailing me via the support form at http://www.pcrpg.org.

If your character is from after the 2004 clear but appears to have been deleted or reset, chances are it was caught in one of the inactive account purges over the years.  Backups were made before such events, so try the support form.

Something we call a 'Twinky-Weiner sandwhich'. It's from the 'Weird Al' movie 'UHF'.
Basically, you cut open a twinky, stick a hot dog in there, and spray 'easy-cheese'. (That fake cheese that's in a whipped cream bottle) on the top.
It actually didn't taste very bad at all... I mean I wouldn't want to eat it every day for a month, but it wasn't that bad.

Oh malarkeye this is old.

Something from Holland that I got at a food stand. I couldn't pronounce the name, but I put in a Euro and opened the door. It was fried on the outside and was filled with a grayish-brown gooey inside that tasted like spiced, creamed pork...or something.


Oh, and Haggis. That malarkeye is excellent, actually.

Does anyone else notice how frequently this server goes down? (every couple days or so, for a few hours usually.)
I was just wondering if it's being worked on, or if the server is just crapping out more frequently than the other.
  I don't mean to trash-talk your new, shiny server, Particle (As I have seen it can handle MUCH more than the older one.)
but I am curious as to why it keeps going down.

It has only gone offline twice in the last two weeks.  This happens when automatic updates applies updates and there is a hard deadline for a restart-by date.  In that case, WSUS issues a forced restart to the machine.  I really should just add the startup scripts to the startup group so it never seems like it has died.  In both of these instances, the server is just waiting there faithfully with nothing to do after the restart.

Edit:
Done.  TeamSpeak, PCRPG, and the maintainer will all auto-start now.  Somebody will still need to nudge me when this happens so I can login and get these things started.

Okay, thanks, that explains it... I thought it had gone down more frequently, but I'm probably remembering wrong. (My graps of time goes away during spring break and doesn't come back for a few weaks.)

Before anyone complains, it is indeed down right now and it's my doing...not a failure.
