there's no website, no reachable server... no info on the login screen...

Did Iran nuke Iceland cause Mahmud lost his Apoc to server lag?

Dude,

I have been trying to find out. ign.com suggests that the character database was under threat of corruption and they shut down until further notice. Cant see what time but it does not look good. Possible character data loss is not a good prospect.

Just hope they at least get the website up soon to let us know wtf is going on.

Yeah I was playing and an msg popped up saying the server was shutting down, after that for a short while there was a msg saying more news when they had then nothing.
gutted big time. Normally you can go to the forums but the whole site is down.
Talk of char corruption worries me in a big way, lets hope thats not the case.
what am I ment to do now? I've been playing EvE that long I have no other games LOL.

per the irc channel:
Sharkbait's explanation

In short, the database server got hacked, so they're talking about a rollback

No clue, you can check the irc channel yourself:

irc.coldfront.net #eve-online

noone knows anything, so it's just a whole bunch of spamming of various sorts

slightly more info:
#eve-announce topic:
current topic is: Official from Wrangler: "We performed a emergency shutdown of TQ and SQL Servers, no ETA for TQ to get back up." ** NO ROLLBACK yet ** Other announcements as they occur. /join #eve for discussion.

But nothing is really happening... will update when I find out more (spent 2 hours looking for info earlier, hope this helps spread the info a little easier)
