The shard is in the middle of eating itself alive. Something went wrong with how it tracks memory. I don't know if this is an operating system problem, a hardware problem, the server software itself. I'm 99% sure it's not a script problem because scripts shouldn't have the level of access that would be required to make this error.

Anyway, in layman's terms. on the website status page where it says memory? Normally it's between 500-600 megs.
It was reading 0.
The server had no clue what memory it was using and couldn't find out.
So that's a bad thing.

Anyway i took it down because in this case, it might end up corrupting itself/destroying parts of the save. I hate downtime as much as you guys do, but i'd rather be safe than risk losing data. Hopefully broadband will put it back up soon.

but um mk! that sounded like a logical decision! well played bob!

ps. can i get my 53 necro gains i got in the 20 mins b4 the last world save i earned?

Quick thinking Bob. Better to have the shard down for a few hours than have it crash totally. Well played!
