This happens in 9 days folks. Please spread the word and if you know people that it may affect please speak to them and give them a heads up.

This happens in one week.

It's weekend, so eveyone who plays weekends, don't forget, because next weekend it's done!

Leanthar · « **Reply #23 on:** October 22, 2006, 05:35:42 AM »

This happens in 4 days, this coming Thursday.

Do you have a roughly idea what time this is going to happen?

EdTheKet · « **Reply #25 on:** October 22, 2006, 01:16:19 PM »

If I were you, I wouldn't wait for the last day

Will this wipe out the treasure maps/buried chests? If so, I need to reschedule something and fast.

Thanks

Only if you store those maps in a housing or bank chest.

OK, thanks. I have about 20 chests buried right now and wanted to make sure their contents and location would last across the DB wipe. It must use something else for persistence. Thanks for the fast reply.

What time exactly are the servers coming down? Just found out about this a couple days ago and trying to get everything reinstalled and patched and downloaded (haks and such) ASAP.

I'm pretty sure what the answer is, but I'll ask just to be safe -- this doesn't affect gold stored in the bank, right? That is, we shouldn't have to withdraw our savings for this operation?

Leanthar · « **Reply #31 on:** October 24, 2006, 07:48:09 AM »

The gold in the bank will be fine as it is not affected.

Hope nobody mines but *bump* Just a little reminder.

Leanthar · « **Reply #33 on:** October 24, 2006, 11:21:14 AM »

This happens in two days folks. I want to stress again that if a player can not get their items cleared up (for whatever reason) those items will be lost and we will not be retrieving them in any way. We have given a full months notice so I think that is enough time for a player to get their items or at the very least get a friend to get it for them. Please clear out your items or they will be lost.

I want to encourage people to use this as an opportunity to get rid of stuff that does not really need to be stored--it just causes lag spikes when the database is hit. If you need it then by all means keep it, but if you can get rid of it please just let it get wiped.

oly crap! I better look my junk tonight.

Hope no one gets caught by this.

This thread has been bumped for a month and the time for this is on October 26th. Spread the word, talk to your friends. On top of that there is a message for players to check this forum for this important post, the message is received at the time one logs in to the world. So they know they need to come and look at these forums.

Another thread bump, remember this is October 26th. When Leanthar spoke about the thread being bumped for a month he meant the thread he's been bumping, not the date of the db maintenance. We will be a lot more precise on the time this will occur late on the 25th or early 26th.

Leanthar · « **Reply #37 on:** October 25, 2006, 05:19:16 AM »

This happens tomorrow, see this thread for the time.
