The site should be fixed now or soon - it was just getting overloaded from so many people going on.

Appears to be down again, think JWJ is sleeping too based on his twitter :sad.gif:

:sad.gif:( The timing was awful since I need to reinstall my server and I'm just waiting on the control panel.

Hey guys, sorry for the website troubles. It seemed to have gone down again after we all went to go recover from the trip back from Minecon. Site's back up and I'll make sure it stays up until I figure out exactly what's causing it to go down. I'm figuring it's just the extra traffic causing php-cgi to choke up.

your site seems to be intermittently down. I signed up for a free trial but I couldn't access the control panel. I opened a ticket Ticket ID: 635613

He has been aware of this, please note his twitter for more info https://twitter.com/#!/jjervey

Still hope'n on being able to run a bukkit build soon :3
EDIT: Saw your twiter, glad to see yah will work on it when yah can :3

We've found the source of the problem with the website and fixed it, everything's been perfectly stable since. :smile.gif:

I have still been having lots of issues with the web console saying "Logging is not enabled."

Just making sure you are aware of this.

If I buy a server from you guys right now, can I change the location to the Singapore one when you guys have it set up?

I was trying to get a hold of a free trial today, unfortunately all 32 the servers had the sign: "Reclaiming Server!" for the last 6 hours or so


Too many users wants to try your services, or is there a bug?

great site btw!

Sorry about that! These two systems are tied into the same automation system which we had temporarily shut down to see if it was causing our website crashes last night. I restarted it so both trial servers and console logging should now function again.

You lie, Cole2sworld.com is the official host for minecon! FAKE!

Actually Lethal Drive was also a sponsored host.

Sorry, but that is incorrect. Cole2sworld.com is not a host. They are a community that charges access to their servers. We were the only gameserver provider with a booth at MineCon and we also hosted the servers for half of the game area.

anyone knows a big server hosted on lethaldrive?

The Shaftlands are hosted by LethalDrive.

So I was thinking of renting a server for some of my friends (and me) to play on. Your servers seems like a really good option. How fast do you expect to have the new Bukkit version available after it is released?

PS. Congratulations on having the least spammy thread name in the entire section.

We generally release it after a day because we test it ourselves first.

So do you use the 1.0.0 bukkit yet or are you waiting for a recommended build and still on 1.8? There has been some official 1.0.0 builds but they are probably not 100% stable and not been recommended.

We have Bukkit #1492 in our update system, but our servers use 1.0.0 by default.

Will there be option to use other jars then Bukkit and Vanila ? Like Technic pack ?

We'll be implementing a modloader system into our control panel very soon.

Quick Question: Are you planning on bringing in Support for other Server Wrappers, such as SimpleServer? I know they are less popular than variants such as Bukkit, but I believe that there is still a following, and support for them would be great.

However, my current server is running brilliantly using Vanilla MC, not a moments lag all day! Thank you!

We have no plans to support any wrappers other than Bukkit at this time. We're not experienced with other wrappers, so we don't want to host them yet.


In other news, LethalDrive has just finished it's partial migration to Chicago and all new orders will be set up on our brand new self-owned hardware! We'll be moving the rest of our Dallas clients in the next couple of weeks as we order more hardware.

Since you guys haven't responded to my live sales chat messages in almost two days, I guess I'll post my questions here...

1. What size MySQL database do you recommend for a plugin like LogBlock?

2. Do you let us use dev builds of Bukkit for 1.0.0? If so, which builds?

Hi MrTibbs,

I apologize, but that system is actually supposed to be disabled. We never read the live chat messages. Best place to ask questions when we're not on the livechat is via tickets in the billing center, you can place one as a guest. There's no sizing on the database, you pay $2 no matter how large or small it is. Regarding the builds, we generally only release actual versions of Bukkit/Minecraft, but we've been releasing the more stable development versions. Right now we only have 1492 in there, but we're going to test out some more versions later.

Oh, well that explains it then. You might want to remove the "Live Sales Chat" link on your home page then. But anyway...

Is there anyway you could load some newer versions? I had issues with some of the 14xx versions (lockette not working properly) and those issues were fixed in 1529.
