hey all
i was wondering if there are more players that are forced to shutdown by netdragon
i got a email in my inbox from T.Q.
its not from net dragon , but from the office of the law (cant say it in english)
they send me a email and are complaining about ... (read carefull) the SERVER files
they dont complain about the client or website , but just about the SERVER files
now the problem is , i am forced to shutdown or i can get 6 months of jail o.O
but i live in belguim , so maybe i can do somehting against it ^^ (lucky me)
now the problem , what can you do against it ??
maybe this is the reason why mutch servers are shutting down because they dont know what you can do against it
i asked a few persones of the law to what i can do against it and they say they cant do a thing against it , now we founded a way , TQ released a beta version and they removed it
now the funny part , the beta is allowed to use because its a public beta release of the server
so , that was the small story , the hard part dont get releases as it isnt needed to know (just a few tech detais )
now , what i going do , i try differend things to see how to fix it whitout shutting it down , but like you know , if it isnt posseble to prevent it then it is needed
from the moment i need to shutdown and i cant do anything agains it then i will release a complete package of 100mb ( or around that ) that includes my server+db+patch+fixes+apache+mysql
its a instand server that you start up whit just pressing on 1 button , and then the 3 server buttons , its crashfree (stable what you cant say of other persones) a easy install , (extract and press start ... how hard can it be ??) and fully operational
then i will release my client file to that you need to conect to it (not every client can conect to it , not even the normal eo client can conect to it so you need that patch)
so , that was it then
i will post a reply
as soon i know more
hopely can this help you more to figure out a way to prevent shutdown
