WoW site down?

Element · 11-01-2004, 09:14 AM

Maybe signups or something?

The site has been down since Friday. When the servers are down, the site normally is. They posted this earlier last week saying the site/servers will be down for a few days in preparation for the stress test.

Domain isn't resolving at all now, they're probably moving server locations and then the IP will change.. they'll probably be a propagation delay until it's up and running again.. anywhere from 5mins to 48 hours.

Don't know what your doing, but the site has not been down since Friday. Shit, not once since about 1h and 30min ago have I seen it down after CB ended. Forums have been down and you couldn't log in at the home site. They planned to have the forums back up by "early morning" today. So, either its coming up soon, or you will be waiting about 12 more hours.

The site was up all weekend, they did 2 - 3 updates. However, they said it would be coming up late morning today, Pacific time, so it would be a good guess to say that big things are very close.

I'm doing something aside from spamming refresh on the tard blog.

I'll rephrase, just for you!

Everything has been down since Friday except the main page that says the servers and forums are down! I'm sorry I wasn't more specific due to the mass confusion I have started.

Sue me for giving bad infoz.

P.S. Trip - I just now noticed that. I figured I'd wait until later this evening to check. I wish they would do something with their site, though. It kinda sucks.

P.S.S. What did the updates say? I hate even clicking that site 'cause of the stupid "ERROR!" message. Half of the time I check random fansites for updates because their site is a piece of crap like the prick who runs it.

I heard they filed for bankruptcy and cancelled all their pending games. =(

Rav: the chinese site for WoW is amazing.. puts the current one to shame =/

Fulorian · 11-01-2004, 09:55 AM

First update was about the Halloween 'treats' they put up, then one said the download of the Beta client would be delayed since they decided to use the weekend to do server work, and as a result, Closed beta testers will have to download at the same time as Stress testers. Suck =\.

Might have been another along the same vein. They did say the forums / site / some news? would be up midmorning Monday.

??? I just said it wasn’t down for me till this morning, and I don't know what you’re talking about. Rephrasing your post doesn’t mean adding new information. Please don't get offended so easily next time.

yeah, well, "this morning" isn't "now". Currently, trying to go to www.worldofwarcraft.com gets you:

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Dintorr · 11-01-2004, 10:10 AM

hmmmm, I was just now able to get in ...

but no new news about ST2

edit: oooh, and the forums appear to be back up

Kildace · 11-01-2004, 10:11 AM

It's now up, stress test client up for grabs too.

edit : if you're a closed beta member.

Burning_Samurai · 11-01-2004, 10:16 AM
