Looks like it

PMAvers · February 2013

They literally *just* got done with maintenance.

IT LIVES!

SniperGuy · March 2013

I granted Empirical mod rights in the Underdark channel, since that is a thing now and there were like 20 of them online. I think I did it right, in only giving mod powers in that channel. I could be wrong.

Varega · March 2013

Vent is down again. Any particular reason?

TyrantCow · March 2013

no vent weekend make mooman no happy

@PMAvers is there any eta on the server? contemplating throwing down to rent something for like a month for a backup while your host works out their shit.

PMAvers · March 2013

On my lunch break, lemme look into it. Hopefully this wi-if I'm leeching from the Lowe's stays stable...

EDIT: not scheduled. Tried restarting it, let me know if it doesn't come up so I can put a ticket in. Can't see server status myself.

TyrantCow · March 2013

it's up, thanks mavers!

DigitalSyn · April 2013

PikaPuff · April 2013

So you can't connect to Ventrilo servers with TeamSpeak, right? What's my better option here?

PikaPuff · May 2013

both have advantages and disadvantages that I'm too lazy to go into detail about.

TyrantCow · June 2013

you nuked the cows channel

i am serious so sad

PikaPuff · June 2013

There's mold and asbestos growing in the basements there, so we had to remove your channel for cleaning. It should return within 24 hours.

SoaL · June 2013

and got banned for some reason

anyways unban me and ban the admin that did it

SniperGuy · June 2013

I...can't tell if that's a serious request or not.

TheLawinator · June 2013

Soal was just providing a service.

PikaPuff · June 2013

I'm unbanning 'soal'. I didn't see a fuck in the ban list. Please don't get banned again.

TheKoolEagle · June 2013

protip - don't pipe music in a random channel, it doesn't usually end well.

JAEF · June 2013

Unless Keagle's in it. Then it's OK.

Vicious_GSR · June 2013

Does the server still work on zee macs?

PMAvers · July 2013

A little delayed, somehow never noticed the post...

The Vent server should work fine, specifically set it up codec-wise so it would.

Direwolf · July 2013

Maybe I read it wrong, but looked like the Vent account was a in the red. Tossed in a bit. Will see if I can afford more next week.

Mordrack · August 2013

Seems the vent server died.
edit: It's back up now.

Fiatil · August 2013

The server, she is fucked. 4 mass boots in about 30 minutes.

Woggle · August 2013

It's currently all the way dead. The whole-server disconnects started yesterday I think.

PMAvers · August 2013

Looks like there's some sort of outage. They're working on it.

PikaPuff · August 2013

[JJ did it]

PMAvers · August 2013

Probably.

EDIT: Apparently it's bigger than that.

Chicago Unscheduled Maintenance

Posted Aug 02 19:28 EDT This location is currently under unscheduled maintenance. We expect the end users to experience an inability to connect to services during this time.

We will provide another update here when one becomes available.

PMAvers · August 2013

Looks like it's back up, although the maintenance notice is still up on my dashboard so who knows what'll happen.

SniperGuy · August 2013

So the server just shit the bed.

Also, I'm back. Hi.

SniperGuy · August 2013

Aaand it's still down?

Forbe! · August 2013

Appears to be.

Service has again been fully restored. We have not yet received an All Clear, but we will reply here again once we get that. We will be monitoring the situation closely for the next several hours.
Aug 4, 2013 - 6:08pm EDT
Chicago appears to be offline again at this time. Please be advised, while service was restored, we have not been given the all clear so we expect there may be disruptions until we get a final confirmation of service restoration from our upstream provider.

Service in chicago has been restored. We have not received details on the issue yet, so we will be monitoring and not calling this case closed until we have additional detail.
Aug 4, 2013 - 1:29pm EDT
Our upstream provider is experiencing an outage affecting multiple customers in the Chicago area. They are working on the problem and we do expect things to be resolved soon, but there is no official ETA.

It may happen more, as a heads-up. Honestly considering changing the location of the server to a different center from the Chicago one. It seems to have a lot of problems.
