So I've had the chance to get into the closed beta and I gotta say that this is pretty much the only server I'm excited to play. Most of the "really important stuff" is already downgraded from GF to HB. Everyone that thinks that Hellbound servers are full of bugs will change their minds on this one, it is gracia final OFF core afterall.

 

Would defenitely choose this server over RPG's same old, boring and corrupted russian servers.

Yes indeed. They have been busy already for about a month before I joined roughly a month ago. Lots of the core features already downgraded but still many small ones left to do. We'll get there and it will be great.

Damn, looks like Mac is pulling a hell of a job, i guess you are paying him a lot to do it lulz.

Looks like some webserver work going on today.

 

http://l2citadel.com/forums/topic/239-webserver-maintenance-13092014/

 

 

We will be doing some work to the cloudserver our site and panel is hosted on over the next few hours:

 

- Upgrading the ram

- Tuning Mysql to handle more traffic efficiently

- Upgrading PHP

- Changing over from Apache Booster to NginxCP

- Further hardening of PHP

- Change out Eaccelerator for Zend OpCode cacher for better php performance.

 

So if you notice the site is acting a little funny or is even unavailable temporarily this is why.
