| April Fools... did we fool you? by Supernuker |
The site being suspended and us telling everyone on irc and the server that we weren't going to use the website anymore because we didn't have enough money was just our little April fool's joke. Did we fool you? |
Comment | | Our Website.. the good news.. and the bad news by Supernuker |
As hopefully everyone knows, last week on Monday, our forums data was corrupted due the host moving the data around. After a long fight with the host, they didn't give us any backups due to their TOS stating "We are not responsible for any loss of data, the customer is responsible for their own data backups". So we did lose some data, however there is some good and bad news.
The Good News:
-Following this incident me and few friends (Not related to NukeSilo) decided to startup a web hosting company and we bought a full box for ourselves. NukeSilo is now hosted on this box which I have root access to which means I have full and utter control over the system, and no stupid techs will be messing around with our data.
-Because I have root access I have access to the backup controllers on the system so I can restore daily, weekly, or monthly backups as needed. Also LLLL (Or Jameson) will begin to starting taking more off-site backups so if something like this happens again we will better off.
-Forum data has been restored as much as possible, there is a little actual post corruption which is good.
The Bad News:
-Depending on your Internet Service Provider, even though the forums have been online since 9:00am on Thursday, you may not see the forums being up again until late Saturday because of the DNS change.
-The userbase took a heavy blow, and required being restored to the last good backup.. which happened to be February 1st 2008. If you registered or made any account changes since then you will have to re-register / remake the account changes. Yeah I failed in the backup department and learned a good lesson it.
Notes:
-STAFF MEMBERS: Your permissions may be off now, if your permissions on the forum is incorrect notify me via IRC IMMEDIATELY so I can fix them.
-Some posts, mostly those with users who got deleted, may show completely blank posts, just ignore these and don't bother reporting it to moderators. If we see it we will delete it, but its not really that big of a bug.
-If you encounter any other bugs please let me know, thanks.
I apologize for any inconvince this whole situation has caused and will take steps to make sure this never happens again in the future. |

Comment | | TSRP Re-Opening Date by Supernuker |
We are officially announcing the time and date that the new NukeSilo TSRP Server will come on-line with our new map.
Noon, January 27th, 2008, PST. (3:00pm EST)
Staff applications ARE NOT OPEN for the TSRP server until January 28th. We will be opening applications for special positions this weekend, most notable, Yakuza Leader, Police Commissioner, and Police Chief.

Any questions about the new map should be posted HERE. |
Comment | | Page Admins, from inside the game server! by Supernuker |
We have rolled out our latest technology to help everyone in the servers.
In short, what this technology does it is allows some in our game servers, to send a message from the game server to our staff channel on irc alerting admins that they are needed. This is very easy way for players to get into contact with admins if one is needed for anything from a map change to dealing with a cheater.
If you wish to page a admin while in the game server type: "amx_page message".
This is still in the testing stages but is working 99% of the time. If you have any suggestions or bug reports please let me know. |
Comment | | Staff Policy Change / We are looking for admins / TSRP Map by Supernuker |
First off we have changed our staff policy around a little bit. Senior Admins are now higher ranked than Trainers are, thats the only policy which may effect everyone in the community.
Second, we are looking for admins for the TSDM and CS servers. If you would like to apply for admin, please Click Here for full information. If you thought about applying in the past but didn't think you could make it, apply now as we will be accepting several staff applications in the comming weeks and we are going to give each application a through look.
Last, The TSRP server is offline until the new map is out, but, within 2 to 3 weeks we are planning to open the server up to a week of public beta where the entire community can come in and beta test it while retaining their old account. After that is done then all data on the server will be reset and we will officially start the TSRP Server backup. This new map will be out in July, the exact date is not set yet but we will announce it when the time approaches. |

Comment | | Vent Server IP Change by Supernuker |
Our vent server IP has changed because it has moved servers and the DNS has been told to update, but until it updates you will need to use the IP "69.12.72.194" instead of "vent.nukesilo.net" to connect, everything else will remain the same. |
Comment | | New Method to Staff Applications by Supernuker |

http://forums.nukesilo.net/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=6184
As it says in that post, any application that has not been reviewed has been lost and your going to have to resubmit it. |
