Guys, we are TC players. In the installation, they warned us that downtimes and server wipes are in the job description. If you don't like it, leave test and to live.

They have absolutely no obligation to keep the server up for us. It is totally for testing's sake, so stop whining like a bunch of 4 year-olds.




Look at it from a corporate side though. They have asked many times for more people to play on TC. We provide a free testing service for them. Understood that it means more down times. When they allow 36 hours of down time to pass, without even posting that the server is broken and won't be fixed till Monday, does that encourage us to play here? Just a post, which can be done from home, would have helped morale. Some one must be on call. If the live servers went down surely there'd be red name posts on the board. They've asked for our help. We've given it knowing what may occur. It's not being a baby to expect a little respect for what we willingly offer. It's just good business.
