TSPG is down for a bit, it'll be back ASAP but our host decided to shut us down earlier than they said they would. :/

Hi all,

We finally decided to do that thing (an evil for some) We got ourselves a patreon. It can be accessed at https://www.patreon.com/tspg

It's to address those that wanted to donate but paypal gave em a rough time not accepting their card. You now have a method to do so! Feel free to check it out!

We're currently moving to a new service because apparently ReliableSite's billing system isn't Reliable.

Guess that's karma to you. :v:

So what's the ETA on the servers? Are they better than before? Is the wait going to be worth it?

Hey folks,

Just a bit of an update here. As you all know TSPG has been down a few days. Our good ole host Reliable site experienced an issue with their billing system around the time when our bill is due. Despite my attempts to get them to fix and and provide us with more time because of the issue, they did not give two shits really. Also something caused the server to use its monthly bandwidth of 10TB somehow so the host was also trying to get more money out of us. Because of this we had to relocate and change hosts. We decided to try OVH and it will be relocated in Canada (apparently North America but their DC is in Canada)

OVH also fucked up and needed my ID etc to validate the order. They misread my date of birth and thought I was under 18 so they have caused us some delays. The refund they have done apparently is going to take 7 days. So there is your ETA

In the mean time, I'm going to recommend using AUSDOOM. I know pings from the US to aussie land are bullshit but if you want a server hosted, they are essentially the same as us. They use the same bot so :P

I guess due to this, ive got time to do things like change that damn logo on this thread and some other stuff. Thanks for understanding.

The new server is actually better then our old one, and cheaper. 64 GB of RAM and better CPU.

PS: That game i mentioned if you keep making comments about tspg being dead is still on. Ya all banned alot of WADS already, so I'd suggest ya all cut back on the jokes yea?

All jokes aside, we are currently down.

Instead of asking why the servers are down, read this topic, or find out in the channel topic. We will most certainly announce the return of the service.

OVH cut itself some slack and set us up a server. MiFU is currently telling the archvile how to properly revive the server (because one does not simply revive a service) :igor:

It's when something is missing that you understand how useful it used to be. :gasp:

If you haven't heard it on Discord or IRC already:

The 3.0 switchover will happen tonight.
Everything's ready, all that's needed is for some stuff to be cleared up with MiFU and then for the bot to be rebooted.
Thanks for your patience.
