Big thanks to Silirrion!

Just wanted to extend a huge thanks to Silirrion for explaining just what has been going on with our servers recently. It sucks that some people feel the need to deny others their playtime, but it sucks for Funcom as well, because they do use their cash to maintain these servers, as much as we want to believe otherwise.

So thanks Sil, and Funcom, for listening to our constant complaints and taking them to heart!

Big thanx indeed. I guess the ingot removale didn't sit well with the farmers. I hope they catch them and release them to the AO comunity.

As Sil was mentioning nothing could be said earlier due to the investigation (that is still on-going). I too am happy that Sil could give you guys more details on whats going on so there is an understanding of what/why/when etc there are problems though

It has also come to our attention that various parties may have been attempting to distribute invasive ‘Trojan’ virus files to the online gaming community. We would like to take this opportunity to remind our players to be vigilant against such threats to their home computers.

EDIT: Here is a little more insight... sorta.
