Extended Outages
To anyone who knows how to read:
I am anticipating, though hoping to avoid, extended periods of down time in the next 2 weeks. I am having major construction done at the VGO Command Center (aka, my house) which will likely require periods of power and/or internet service outages.
I'll do what I can to keep it to a minimum, but if you get a Page Not Found anytime between Fri Sep 18 and Fri Sep 25 2015, do not panic. We'll be back.
There will be another period of outages as the roof is being torn off my home to replace it with a spiffy new one, but that will happen sometime mid-October. I'll warn you about that one, too.
As always, thanks for your patience.

I was wondering if you'd catch that, Moldy!
Demolition has begun. Brace for impact. We shall return soon as possible.

Re: Extended Outages
I'm kind of impressed with the crew working on Phase 1 of my house... not once did they disconnect me, power or internet. The 1 outage that lasted 5 mins was me unplugging the main cable line to move it away from the rotating saw blades.

Re: Extended Outages
[strike:312xbsht]Just a heads up; I will be bringing everything down over this coming weekend to perform much needed maintenance, upgrades, and restructuring of my internal network, as well as separating the game server databases from the webserver database. Hopefully this will improve performance, and will not be down for more than a few hours, if that[/strike:312xbsht].
Delayed! I will reschedule this once the dust settles around the VGOEmulator Datacenter; literally, dust. Why bother cleaning things if these guys are still making a mess?

Re: Extended Outages
Thanks for the patience during that 4 hour outage! The web services are the first to come back up, though I have many things to reconfigure still - so some of the Portal modules may not function right away (I split the MySQL Databases as part of the updates).
I will get VGOEmulator running first (sorry, EQ2Emu, but you wanted a new server so I am still building it ) so Launcher, New Telon and Targonor should be alive shortly.
Still, there may be moments of disconnect throughout the remainder of this weekend as I update and reboot stuff.
