It's Wednesday morning.  Please tell me you've detected the pattern by this point.  They'll be up soon(tm).
  

The USA is having so many disasters and tragedies you'd almost think it was built on thousands of ancient Indian burial grounds.

Sigh.  The weekly post about this.  It takes between 45 minutes and 2 hours.  For a bong smoker you are a bit high strung.  Pack another bowl and chill, bro.

Wait a minute!  Conspiracy theory time!  What if Turbine and Strake are in cahoots? 

(don't) Think about it.   Every Wednesday Turbine brings down both the website and the servers for a couple of hours.  So new people come to the Vault, due to it's well earned reputation of being a friendly place full of helpful people willing to explain Turbine 101 to people. 

Turbine clearly implemented weekly server restarts to drive more traffic to the Vault.  It's the only explanation that (doesn't) make sense!

Side note: the above information is also available on the DDO Facebook page:

Could be a useful link for future queries like this.

i would love to understand what the fuck is wrong with turbines infrastructure that makes weekly reboots on an enterprise level business server required, let alone what makes a reboots take 6 hours

Usually the forums stay up during the weekly server resets.  If they are down as well, that points to account maintenance, as the games and forums both use the same accounts database.

if the stealth nerfs to the game were a terabyte of data, and was installed to the servers via a USB 2.0 stick, it would take 6-8 hours. Are you implying that todays downtime is due to a 1000 gigabyte nerf loaded via an old usb stick?

Turbine would like to know this, too.   If you figure it out, please enlighten them.

What the fuck is the "maintenance" for ?
Raining cats and dogs and holiday here, time to play some.
Nope. Once fucking again.
Don't really understand those things but such shitty technical state or downright unacessibility of the service can't be good for the business.
Wish I purchased Tyranny instead of 6 months vip.

Server full - it's the most ironical thing ever.
