Title: Funny error message
Post by: Ziljaden on July 20, 2006, 04:26:45 am
Has anybody else recieved an error message along the lines of; "This is a message from the server. You should not be able to see this."?

I find that to be a very funny error message, that may just be me.

This message is not at all funny.

It is the horror of all roleplayers: Imagine you are just about to reply with a very important sentence, to ensure that your previous one was not misunderstood - and suddenly the server seems to believe that you already logged off a minute ago, although you definitely did not...

Actually this error message doesnt happen in game, it happens when you try to log on, so it isnt that bad, and I thought it was pretty humerous.

If you are in a conversation, waiting already some minutes for an answer, and suddenly your partners around you start to disappear, then you know: Once again, Laanx forgot about her children...

That message means your connection was lost for whatever reason.  Most people who get it are on a lossy/dirty connection, usually wireless.  However, just temporarily bad network conditions in your area or on the way to Singapore can do it occasionally.  A good ping to our server is a third of a second... be glad it works at all.  :P

I get that sometimes too, however one night I got it every 15mins or so, but it is just that I'm up here and server is down there, it is normally 300ms ping and not too stable, reads failed quite often, I actually took video from ping at login screen once, is somewhere and I can put up if that has any interest to see.

1M ADSL connection from largest ISP here is so can't do anything to get it better. Luckily it is more stable at normal times, just from about now to next 3 hours it is going to be bit bad so I try to avoid this time and log in at different time.
