Title: Client 0.3.019 is back up.
Post by: Under the moon on October 08, 2007, 10:59:28 pm
Sorry for the mistake, folks. The new Client would have taken longer to get up and running than Talad wished to have the server down. We all know how much you love playing, so, until the time when the switch can be done in as little time as possible, .019 will remain up and running.

Events surrounding the Eclipse will continue to run at random times as well, and the Eclipse 'darkening' may be repeated, though not in the same locations, and in other timezones. For those of you in the last Eclipse events, we ask that you OOC 'pretend' they did not happen yet, and save your After Dark RPs until the new client is released.

Thanks for your time and patience. :)

That was a terrible time for the Eclipse to have come in the Americas. Right about then everyone should have been asleep/eating/whatever. It was also inconvenient for me, because I live on Mars...

Also, several people were totally ignoring the Eclipse (mostly ch00bs). My character had seen a couple Marfusangs, and Ulbernaut, and a Consumer in Ojaveda, and ran rabidly for Hydlaa, which would have been kind of a stupid thing to do I realize now. As she ran, telling people to escape, they just pranced around hacking 'n slashing at little rats.

Does the team test .20 on another server or on the Laanx server when it's down?

I was planning to start a really long term RP after this, but I suppose I need some more time to work on the story.  Also, it should give me time to add a little bit to my character.

In my opinion the PS team should open a small online merchandise shop that sells Planeshift-themed tee shirts, coffee mugs, keychains, and such. It would help fund the project while keeping all aspects of the game 100% free.

Been discussed before.

There IS a way to donate to PS. You just get nothing for it except the satisfaction of having donated...and possibly better tools for devs to develop stuff.

Whew!  For a minute there I thought you guys were going to move on to the next client before I'd even had a chance to use .19 for more than ten minutes!

Now I've got a hard choice.  Do I play around with PCLinuxOS and get paid for it, or get in some quality time with .19 before it's too late?  Hmmm....

Bah, I don't have school tomorrow!  I'll do both! :thumbup:

Why was it shot down?

It seems likely that you will get a lot more money through this route than through just flat donations.

Last I heard PS didn't need any more funding... And yeah, thats straight out of the mouth of a staff member... I'm getting mixed messages here. xD

Can't wait for .20 though...Keep it up PS staff and team!  \\o//

News Box needs to be updated. Ironic, huh, like a Catch-22.

I got lost in the Eclipse... It was funny.  ;D

My favorite is the fellow who fell off a mountain, anyway Ver the check thing was merely a joke, the subtext of which is try not to push us, as we are all working as hard humanly possible. Enjoy 019 in the interim and keep your eyes peeled for more events in the near term.
