Admin Notice: Server hosting and denial of service attack

[Cannon]

Wait...WHAT!!!!! :(Ive been away for a couple of days reformatting and havn't been able to go on FL. Why am I always gone when something happens :laugh:

So let me get this straight:

1] Severs down
2] Random dudes from the server providers are attacking the community with spam.
3] We are having to find a new server

Im always going to miss that old server *sniff*...more than 2 years ago now I first set foot on her *tear*
WAAAAAA!!!!! :(

In a more serious manner:

1] Can the server location not be in Europe because that is just about as far as you can get from New Zealand. United States would be fine.
2] Is Majkp going to somehow backup all of our chars' on a memory stick or something? Because as far as I know, the server holds all our chars

Hmm now ive got nothing to play because BF2142 is glitching up too (dam you EA).....Crysis anyone?

We will aim to host the server in Europe as there are several Discovery servers in the US already. If you need a server close to NZ try Archie's Portal.

We have backups...both on site and off. We can use the "internet" to move the character files around and the post office if we need to move the hardware. In addition the server itself is physically fine. Our problem is the internet connection to the server.
