The IRC is up, but cannot connect to the website.
Well.. servers go down in 1h40m for 6 hours or so.
but my frost badges :P i can't possibly singlebox anymore :P
Not impressed to find an outage to the site preventing Innerspace from loading. There ought to be some mechanism for the client to give you at least SOME grace period.
Have to agree, especially as I renewed my year's subscription yesterday.
I'm still in my 14-day trial period. I will be watching closely Lavishsofts response to this issue.Quote:

I'm calm, sulking, but calm.
All good here Igg, I don't want to appear completely tied in knots about it, but I do think its a reasonable request to ensure that the client gives us at least some leeway in license checking (for example say checking only periodically).Quote:

But yes, some remedy I think to this problem would be appreciated.

So if you'd rather trust a developer that has seemingly abandoned the community and hasn't updated his software in 9+ months, I hope you enjoy your keyclone license. But be aware, if solidice.com is down, you won't be able to run keyclone. Personally, I'll stick with the developer that is in near constant communication with his subscribers / community.
Down for me too- software+website.
First time ever I couldn't use Innerspace when I wanted too in 4+months of usage.
I'm sure it'll be back up shortly.
I wasn't aware that Keyclone was as little behind (I've only just recently returned to multiboxing after a six month break).Quote:

My solution then is to both Keyclone and Innerspace: allow for some grace period in the license check. I still don't think that's asking too much.
I have also been using IS for like 8-10 month now and have never had any problems.
Problems Schmoblems.....they suck when they come.
Gief innerspace online nau! =)
Ho humm... I forgot it was Tuesday here and WOW servers are down anyways, lol. Couldn't play now even if IS was up!
You guys in Norway/Denmark do you have server maintainences on Tuesday over there too? Always curious if EU hated the same day we WOW players in the US do, lol.
Nah we have the resett on wednesday here in EU. Wich sucks cuz my shift starts tomorrow =/
I feel with you guys here, perhaps if Lax can do some type of temp license if server cannot be reached would be cool.
Lost play time is always frustrated, grab your pitch forks and demand compensation in the form of extending the existing licenses, just kidding.
yes confirm 1st blackout in 4+ months. in past i used keyclone, happened with that too, a couple of time.
in europe maintainance is tue/wed night, generally by 03.00 Tue-night (it s wed at 03.00 am hehe tbh) to 10/11.00 Wed-morning.Quote:

London/portugal is GMT, paris/rome/bern (me) +1(CET), moskow/east europe +2.
all these countries have same downtime.
it starts-ends at game server(s) time:server time is same Central Europe time(CET), GMT +1, mine, coz blizzard is near Paris.
consider here it is about 03.00 pm, if maintenance starts tonight at 03.00 am, it will happen in 12 hours.
Now I'm getting cocerned as it's in the AM and we haven't heard from lax yet, I wonder if he's on the east coast.
It's still kinda early for Lax, he's CST. The IS related sites are back up, looks like the auth servers are still down atm.Quote:

As of 10:23 CST (GMT-6) I'm able to launch IS + launch sessions, anyone having issues should please switch to decaff and try again. :D
Thanks for letting us know.
Decaf is like playing wow with chopsticks instead of fingers ;p
Uh yeah, this all went on while I was sleeping. Terrible news, obviously. Generally the backup license server prevents outages like this.
No complaints here- been very pleased with your service and still am!Quote:

Keyclone has been down a few times in that time.

Not much we can do about it.
But from Zanthors original post, Zero to Hero, it had not been down once from the time he started until he made his post.
IS Boxer is has been the most reliable pay option to date.
So, um, it's down again? or is it just me?
Second Server outage and no backup server.. perhaps this is an issue that needs to be looked at?Quote:

yes down again ;-<
not wanting to bitch too much, as this has never been an issue in the last 6 months i have used the product. But obviously something is wrong!
Confirmed!Quote:

Gah, Still down. :(
I'm not psychic or anything but I predict it'll probably come up around the same time as yesterday when LAX wakes up. Probably got a couple of hours from now- it's only 5:30 AM CST in the states.Quote:

It will be up fairly soon, at least I hope.
well id like a little more information then from lax's previous post. like is it worth sticking with innerspace/isboxer if when it goes down (australian prime time), the only support provided is by 1 Guy in a different time zone and to be honest i don't think its unreasonable if your paying for a service, that there be some sort of support outside the normal hours, especially if you are selling to an international base. perhaps a contact lax button because your servers are down agian? or backup servers that worked?Quote:

i'm sure this is only temporary; if you're itching on playing why not use one of the free softwares (i.e HKN) as a backup?
too much effort.Quote:

Aside from these two occurrences, the servers have basically never been down.
Whatever the issues are, I hope they are resolved soon.
"Inner Space was unable to initialize at this time (-22). Please try again later."
Really annoying, hope this gets sorted soon - right in the middle of prime time and no boxing :(
