    I think deep down I new there must have been a hardware failure some where from all the rubber banding but i never would have guessed in a million years it was bad harddrives.

    Glad to hear its getting an update, hurah!

    We are in a similar position to you... We have 60+ in our township and expected to rank up to city round about now, I'm just wondering whether the server will pick up from where we left it or whether we will have to wait for next week (assuming their are any rank 4 slots left on Tatooine) as our cities weekly update time seems unaffected by any rollbacks or downtime.

    I fully appreciate its in Alpha right now but I'm cursing my bad luck at the moment if we miss out on a city upgrade!

    Shut her down and upgrade... While your at it, set up a redundant rig as a standby so when this happens again it's just a flip of the switch to roll out the replacement.

    Just say NO to rubberbanding.

    To me, at least 24 hours downtime is a good thing. Imagine what all could get done. Time to spend the weekend right, anyway. Hello sunshine!

    Good news on the SSD's. Look forward to seeing how much they help the lag issues which we were all adapting to, lol. "Combat can restart in 5 -4 -3 -2 -1 go!"

    Good work from all the team, it's appreciated how much you put into this./hi5

    What is this thing called "sunshine"? Is that what you get when you step outside? Haha!

    On a side note, I know information on the server hardware is posted somewhere, but have the devs considered doing a raid setup on their SSD's? Also, heads up this past week on newegg.com they had the Vertex3 240gb SSD's for under $120

    You definately dont want to use the garden variety SSD in this scenario. SSDs have a limited number of writes and they were probably reaching their limit, hince the rubberbanding on saves.

    I am thinking that the Devs are installing nice new Industrial Strength SSDs that can handle significantly more writes but also come at a price much greater than $120.

    Like you, Drogomoss, I am facinately by this thing called sunshine. I must go investigate, though perhaps a shower first might be in order
