Make it more clear when the Server is up/down, please?
« on: November 05, 2002, 08:34:54 pm »
Hello *!

I think it would be nice if it were more clear when the server (ps.gameiix.com) is up and when it is down. (So I don\'t have to create a new character every time I want to see if it is up. Of course I could just ping ps.gameiix.com, but that is not really reliable - does the server return pings?)

For example you (the site maintainers) could add a little gif to the website saying whether the server is up or down at the moment.

You could also put a schedule on the website saying when the server will be up.

Just my 2c...

The new server will have this feature.  There will be a server stats web page and up/down will be part of it.  

At the moment though the current server does not support this so I have to manually telnet to the gamiix server and check to see if it still running. :)

I notice this alot, people type the server wrong because they think we typed it wrong, Its ps.gamiix.com, not ps.gameiix.com or ps.gamix.com.
