Minetest Forums

Yeah, looks like it's permanently down. There are other nice servers, and even other things than playing Minetest to do!

Registered there yesterday. Undercore seems like a nice place. It doesn't have a forum thread yet?

It's pretty clear by now that the server is unfortunately not coming back (although I'd be happy to be wrong on this one). It will be missed. I'd like to take in suggestions for some similar servers in this thread.

Getting a bit concerning at this time. I hope everything is well. Regarding the server: any communication would be appreciated.

-- snip -- Why do they keep forgetting? I mean it's not like walking the dog or homework or something. IT'S A FREAKING SERVER. That is more important than "freaking server". I hope map is not deleted x) I think the provider just has the account disabled. But I'm kinda worried cuz some pro...

Several hours now. Can't they at least let us know what they are doing and when it will be back up!? If it is a surprise update or something that's one thing but let us know it's going down and when approximately it'll be up! Best guess at the moment is that they forgot to pay the server bill again...

Oh LOL :D Didn't think about it but makes perfect sense!

Seems so. It has been down today for many hours already.

Lag is back. Moving stuff to bags is slow, many seconds even. Crafting is slow. Placing blocks makes them appear a few seconds later.

Just noticed that you can't ping the website. I guess someone forgot to pay the monthly bill.

Wow, it's actually the same time of the month so this theory makes sense.

Apparently it is down. Scheduled downtime or a surprise?

Lag is back. For the few past weeks there has been no lag but today I've experienced lag with chests and inventory. Just wanted to inform if there has been something turned on lately.

Wow, those ChimneySwift graphs look really depressing, and unfortunately also reflects my player experience on the server. Everything takes up to 10 seconds to finally complete. Melchior's DB commit lag sounds plausible. There's something slowing things down, but I know it's hard to profile a live r...

There has been some lag lately. Doing many basic tasks does not feel as smooth as it used to be on HT. Things that take time: Placing blocks (the blocks disappear and reappear a bit) Mining (the blocks disappear and reappear a bit) Switching bags takes time Opening chests takes time Is there a speci...

I made the sqlite database for the web map way late in the game. So to get all protections listed since the begininning I parsed all the logs from the beginning and recorded the positions into the database. Once completed, the new logs are parsed nightly and the database added to. I was trying to k...

I just visited the server and it's in surprising good shape. My base was there, maybe a few weeks work was lost. Many thanks to Bob8881 for providing the mapsave that included that place. Some glitches here and there but we'll get over it. Thank you EDad for bringing it back online!

I'm open to all possibilities: a reset or a partial restoration. My biggest desire is to get back and play on the server. A big thank you to all the admins and moderators for making this the best server. And a special hello to ExeterDad for taking the time to sort his out.
