Out of curiosity, how often do you do a backup of the server?

Usually every time the server is down, so that the backup contains consistent data. Usually once a patch, in other words.TheRussianB wrote:Out of curiosity, how often do you do a backup of the server?

Re: Server Status Thread
Well, we should be running again as things were prior to the patch yesterday. Once again, I'm truly sorry for this.
I've attampted to restore all purchases made since then, of course, but since I just did it manually from the logs, I may have messed something up. PM me if you believe you're missing something that rightfully belongs to you.

I personally wouldn't mind if the server went down every once in a while for small fixes like this.loftar wrote:Usually every time the server is down, so that the backup contains consistent data.

Re: Server Status Thread
Yeah, I used to play this game a lot back in 2012. Unfortunately i can't access my old account so i made one today to play again and it was deleted.
