Hmm, the forums seem to be having issues.

I don't think so. :P

Under 1000 online users now. Way less that the "record". Perhaps the new software is bloated? :roll:

Probably time to add a new HDD to the server. The old magnetic tape drives just aren't cutting it anymore. :D

Rebirth launched today, so the forums are going to be being hammered by people who bought the game. Egosoft have better things to be doing than worrying about off-topicers arguing the various merits of belly button fluff vs awkward toenails :mrgreen: .

Lol, classic off-topic moment.

Rebirth was the last one. This one's X4 - Foundations, fwiw :roll:

I go away for 5 minutes and a new game gets released...

I should go away more often...

Egosoft forums hosted on....?

I'm thinking maybe an old 386 in someone's grandmother's basement somewhere? Forums have been S-L-O-W lately.

Remarkable responsive today. Did someone press the Turbo on that 386, or is the interest on the new software already over?


I suspect that CBJ was not compiled for the plain 386 instruction set. :roll:

There was a post on the Egosoft home page that said they they were moving to updated hardware on the servers. Either that or they've employed some more hamsters! :wink:

Just seen that post on the homepage and had to do a double take. I misread it and thought it said "Powered by Burnit!" underneath. **Rolls eyes**
