Important Information

Boze (Admin) · August 01, 2003, 03:15:10 PM

Our host (infodoma.com) appears to have gone out of business without notifying its users. iBoze.com will have to make an immediate move to prevent downtime. However, the servers may go out at any time, as the service shut down was scheduled to be on the 25th of July. I will do my best to secure a new server as quickly as possible. When I do so, this server will be locked down, the databases will be transferred to the new server, and you will be without RWL or the forums for ~24 hours (as the DNS, or name servers, must update). If this server goes down, do not panic. I have been making daily backups of the forum and game databases. If you are hosted by iBoze.com (Ad and others), I suggest that you back-up your files and databses immediatly. Hopefully, our next server will be faster and with less downtime (though I have found Infodoma to be excellent until recent months). For those of you who have not been receiving validation codes, this is due to the fact that the mail server is down. See you soon! Keep in mind that any actions done within the game or on the forums may not be saved if this server goes down before I can secure a new one. I am making daily back-ups, however, so only a day of play will be lost.

I just tried sending mail to Boze, but it did not work.

Is there a cost that has to be paid to have this site up? If not, would paying a site make a better site?

My files are already backed up, since... I need them for college.

eep!
*dies at the thought of going another 24 hours without RWL*

I've gone a month without rwl, it was tough but i survived. make sure to have all our E-mail addresses incase the surver goes down and there is no way to contact us on where the new site is

Good idea, only doesn't he already have that in our profiles?

Boze (Admin) · August 01, 2003, 05:54:04 PM

Yes, I pay to host RWL. It costs me a little over $100 a year. Of course, the problem is that my current company has gone out of business.

I do not need your e-mails. The domain will still be the same. In fact, as long as this server goes up, you won't notice a thing.

Due to the fact that the owner of the server vanished (either he died or he is a con-artist), I will not get a refund for the last five months of my contract. Stinks. :( Considering I am $210 in debt to my father, a loan dosn't seem possible at this time. I usually get my server as a birthday presesnt. I don't know what I am to do.

Ah, so that's why I can't send PMs...

Wow, Boze, that's incredibly generous of you! o.o And I'm sorry to hear you won't be refunded... that does stink.

Blackeyes · August 01, 2003, 06:47:56 PM

210$ Ouch! If you show up for the RWL convention I'll chip in a little for the 100$ a year you pay.

While we're on this topic... have you ever considered getting a .tk address for the site? it would make the url way easier to remember, and it would be easier for people who have never gone to the game to remember the url if they see it somewhere...

Abby The Rat · August 02, 2003, 06:53:41 PM

from what I've seen, there is no point. http://warlords.iboze.com is really easy to remember compared to what I've seen. so is http://rwl.iboze.com

it's the same as putting in http://iboze.com/warlords or http://iboze.com/rwl

All I think is that we are very lazy to learn...

Blood Wake · August 04, 2003, 01:10:04 PM

i didnt know about iboze.com/warlords or rwl.iboze.com

Urran Voh · August 04, 2003, 09:30:10 PM

I find the current URL Address very easy to remember.

Scarwake · August 04, 2003, 11:11:53 PM

M'kay...I'm assuming the game is being switched over considering that its screwy and stuff, but my question is when will it be operational again or is that unknown yet?
