Apologies to anyone affected by today's outage, but it appears to finally have concluded. For the record, here's what went down as far as we know: Internet went down for us at 5:39 PM EST. Called Comcast at 5:56 PM EST and spoke to Maurice who couldn't do much because their provisioning system was down but he scheduled a technician to come visit tomorrow afternoon. Called Comcast again at 6:23 PM EST and spoke to Joshua in hopes of getting more/better information, he confirmed that it w

Yet once again.. (Sorry I didn't post last night, I just had so many other things to catch up on first...) Comcast hath struck! At or about 12:15 AM EST, we lost internet completely. I called Comcast at 12:25 (gave them a few in case it was something really minor) and waited on hold for ten minutes to talk to a representative who spent less than a minute with me to advise that their technicians were performing scheduled maintenance and I could expect to be without internet until at least 6:0

Not really certain what happened here, this one should've been posted on June 1st, but somehow got skipped so it got added July 1st instead which puts it as showing up here on the front page later than the entry from June 15th... apologies for any confusion this oversight may have caused anyone.

Comcast won't admit that they've actually done anything (thus is couldn't have been their problem) but their people must've done something because as of this afternoon, everything [i]feels[/i] back to normal-ish to us and all our pings seem to be returning at decent speeds again. So I'm going to remove the note about it from the special announcements, let me know if you find things appearing otherwise.

Well, Comcast's technician was here yesterday, as scheduled, for quite awhile so he could replace all our cables and splitters (one at a time) and finally it was decided that the next step is to have "maintainance check the hard line" which basically means they've scheduled the actual network admins to check the feed for the whole neighborhood. This was supposed to happen either some time last night or some time this coming Monday, since today the connection seems to feel about the same as it ha

Many of you may have noticed that the last three weeks have been a bit rough for us, we've experienced intermittent lag of very notable degrees. Last night, from about 12:30am - 2:15am EST we had a complete outage and I contacted Comcast about it and was told they were doing scheduled maintenance. ([i]I really wish they'd let me know where they schedule these maintenances so I could be aware of them ahead of time...[/i] :bs:) This morning, the problem was so much more exacerbated that I contacte

Potential questors beware!

Wow.. that was unexpected. :shock: Best wishes to you both and to the kids. (Folks tend to forget how rough these things can be on them sometimes.) We'll be here when you guys have time to visit again. :sorry:

Bad News, I'm afraid. Kareie has separated from me. We're still talking, trying to work things out, but it's not going to be a short separation from the looks of things. I don't want to get into details, or blame. I have no internet access right now, so I won't be able to post very often. (I'm using the public library right now.) Between work, packing the whole house, and trying to find a place to live, I don't have enough hours in the day. I didn't want to just disappear, so I stopped by

I can certainly understand why that would upset him, I'd have gone ahead and stay over, myself. Hmm, looks like, yet again, I've drifted a wee bit behind here, so sometime this week I'll do a post for April (prolly May too) starting with April Fools' Day, but tomorrow I'm going to be busy because it's Aaron's 2nd :bday:! :)

Yup, they rushed it into being so fast, that nobody even knew if they had to observe it this year or not. Half the Chemical Valley was 'closed' for it, while the other half was business as usual. I got it off, cause most of our customers were closed, but the boss had to do a couple of out of town runs. It really irritated him, cause he drove all the way to Barrie (about 4 hours one way) to find out the place was closed, and he had to chose whether to stay over, or come home and go back the ne

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't quite clear enough about that, what I meant to say was: [color=silver][i]because these couple of bugs were unrelated to the multi-class beta testing, which is being specifically handled through the forums in the beta testers section, you could have reported them to the [color=white]bug[/color] command in-game, on the live port, instead so that once we got them fixed you'd get [color=yellow]glory[/color] and [color=yellow]gold[/color] for it.[/i][/color] Currently o
