    Technically…. it's still running... just stuck in an infinite loop somewhere in the code unable to process connections. ;)

    That or the port has been closed, but I doubt that. Londo would have gotten wind of it or been informed that it was closed and posted something about it.

      LOL it was up for 30-45mins then it crashs again, i bet its gonna be down for another 15 hrs, we really need someone active to reboot it when it needs it, or whatever to keep it up and running

            just a suggestion, in a mud i was playing while Sent was down for 7 months they had a thing that for minor type crashes, it would reset itself. Dont know if that would help in this case. But if the powers that be are interested I might be able to put you in contact with people from there that might be able to help you with that, if you would need it, I dont know how hard that would be or what.

              Yea, this sucks having to wait for syn to show up to get it rebooted, he comes reboots it, leaves, it crashs again and we cant play until he comes back, some imm should get shell access so they can reboot it… or just say fuck the global quest cuz it usaully crashes when its running for some reason.. we gotta do something about this tho, its getting REALLY old

                rofl thank god someone said something I was afriad so say anything thinking it might be a little rude since the imm/imps have personal lives they need to adend to but i mean realy if you dont have time whats the point in running a mud and i will forever think this is the best mud IF there were less crash and faster restart times cuz i have a feeling that since it was down for what almost all day gets back up for 30 mins to an hour then crashes and stays down til tomorrow night and crases again and again im not trying to sound mean but it does get alitte bothersome but luv ya imm/imps anyway :twisted:

                    it was some dodgy loop thing, at the moment it looks like its to do with belexus's mount but i'm heading off to a boozer in a minute so i don't have time to look at it

                    giving anyone else shell access wouldnt fix anything, who's to say they will be around anymore than i am

                    what would be better is to have some sort of daemon that kills off the game process as soon as it starts eating all the cpu time, however this wont allow me to debug it and fix the problem

                      yup - the game runs under a script that when it dies (usually due to a segmentation fault) it's automatically restarted after 30 secs

                      however the current prob (when you can connect, but the login screen doesn't show up) is caused by an infinite loop within the game, which i'm looking for and have a good idea where it is.. however debugging this can be a little hard, so it's necesarry to be patient.

                        I'd just like to point out that while you all would prefer someone with more time to be able to fix these problems, the 6-10 imms are competing with the 20-40 players. Who is more likely to be online statistically?

                        Please be patient

                            lol, speaking of things (like flames) that should not be near parts of my anatomy (my ass) I paid a docter 123 dollars to stick a q-tip in my penis to tell me that I didn't have clamidia… even though I fucking told her I didn't. turns out all I had to do was pee in a cup, so I think she just wanted a lit'l peek.

                            Wow, that's a lot of information!

                            by the way, she had short purple hair

                                  well i saw the thing coming out of the sky

                                  it had one long horn and one big eye

                                  i commenced to shakin' and i said oo-wee

                                  it looks like a purple people eater to me

                                  it was a one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater

                                  one-eyed-one horned flying purple people eater

                                  sure looks good to me

                                  well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree

                                  i said mr purple people eater don't eat me

                                  i heard him say in a voice so gruff

                                  i wouldn't eat you 'cos you're too tough

                                  it was a one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater

                                  one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater

                                  sure looks strange to me

                                  i said mr purple people eater what's your line

                                  he said eatin' purple people and it sure is fine

                                  but that's not the reason that i came to land

                                  i wanna get a job in a rock'n roll band

                                  well bless my soul rock'n roll flyin' purple eater

                                  pigeon-toed under-growed flyin' purple eater

                                  one-eyed one-horned it was a people eater

                                  what a sight to see

                                  well he swung from the tree and he lit the ground

                                  he started to rock really rockin' around

                                  it was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune

                                  wop bop a lula wop bam boom

                                  one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater

                                  one-eyed one-horned flying purple people eater

                                  ooh it sure looks strange to me

                                  well he went on his way and then what do you know

                                  i saw him last night on a tv show

                                  he was a blowin' it out and really knockin' them dead

                                  playing rock'n roll music through the horn in his head

                                  –---------------------------------------
