Tonight

[Cuthrose]

As i am aware this weekend and next weekend i am going to have to drop out for the next 2 weeks!

I know that you will all miss me loads and all be very upset but i'll be back after that and i will make sure i'm at the correct level as well!

Doubt if I'll be there - getting random server disconnects loads now, and strange messages appear like - "your connection has been banned from BNet for several minutes" and stuff.

You know about the "Realm Downs" right? Its a pain in the arse, I think the general rule is to make no more than 20 games an hour. Fail To Join games count as created games also.

The most common causes include, but are not limited to:
Going in and out of games too quickly (most common cause)
Going in and out of accounts/characters too quickly
Spamming text in the chat channel
Overuse of the mouse wheel
Repeated use of an incorrect password may lock an account login for your protection
Repeated attempts to use an invalid CD-Key
Rapidly connecting/disconnecting to Battle.net
Repeated use of third-party programs (hacks) - these include but are not limited to sending bad packets, flooding the server(s), and the use of hack programs

Temporary restrictions will last anywhere between a few minutes and 72 hours, and repeated logon attempts may result in a longer restriction.

I'm also fairly sure you can get a "Realm Down" with extreme lag, I got one the other day when I had a game up while downloading something else.

I believe if you try to log on again soon after you get "Realm down" it has the chance of getting extended although i'm not sure about this.

Edit : Forgot to mention, if you have a dynamic IP address, all you need to do to get back on is restart your router/modem.

None of the above, really. Only went in to two games and got the message on the 3rd. Was in both for at least 20-30 mins each. I know my connection aint right, and on top of that I think Virgin have had some problems trhat they aren't letting on about. Could be a lag thing.

Haven't had time to make another barb yet anyway, one I was using last week is level 80 now.

Turned out just me and Tia, was a slightly more relaxed pace. Made some dosh, gained a lvl and did a couple of quest. Not bad for an evenings work!


Sorry for sudden dissapearance got kicked!

 

[Tia Kingtiger]

Me too! Must have goot booted at the same time.

Good game, made a huge pile of money

I gambled most of mine away then bought a new bint. Seemed easier to buy one at lvl 21 than watch lvl one slowly catch up!
