    I am all for a wipe. I just came back last week. I believe that it would help balance the current economy and housing issues. I constantly pass houses that say "returning Publish 5," but they clearly never returned.

    Issues are bound to happen as is causes to that effect.

    We can only offer our support to the emu staff, while they work on a solution and a fix for the issue that has come up.

    So this​ is how you're improving server stability...

    Good luck to ya.

    Honestly, it sounds to me like you also had problems migrating your Berkeley database files and just don't want to admit to the general public that it's a system with flaws that can only really be resolved by deleting the DB files and starting over. If that really is the case, there's nothing wrong with admitting it and moving on. It's a complicated system, there are basically no tools for fixing Berkeley databases, and poop happens. Plus, you're not even finished building the whole system yet so, so what if the bugs haven't all been worked out yet.

    You're doing a great job. No one expects you to be perfect.

    I, at the very least, do expect you to be honest (seriously, who loses data to hard drive failures anymore? Really? That's either utter incompetence or a lie).

    I just bought the game (two times) about two weeks ago. i am good with a wipe and I am hopeful that the community comes alive once again.. abit more poeple actually playing instead of afk grinding it.
    when I played live (pre-CU) back in the days, the community was the thing that made the major difference, the way it all had to work together to accomplish stuff.

    There is no migration in this publish...Congratulations on trying to sound smart, but you're way off here. This is a hardware failure, plain and simple.

    So, you are telling me they had exactly ONE backup? I find that incredibly hard to believe. You are either naive for believing that or they actually DO have one backup and that is frankly terrible.

    If only. Feels like a missed opportunity to wipe without that.

    Two character limit is all good in a real launch but this is still for testing.... It's a lot harder to make sure everything is working as intended with a two character limit.
