Well, now we know why Omega was down. Ass clown DoSing.

Yeah, so the Omega outages were from two IPs DoSing it during the night. Way to try and ruin Christmas. JESUS WAS BORN. DOES THIS MEAN NOTHING TO YOU? Anyway, we blocked the IPs and we’ll keep on truckkin’.Yeaaaa hawwww….

IPs have been complained about formally to their corresponding abuse contacts. I wonder if one of these was the attacker’s house and the other was his server somewhere. haha!

Hey0 Updates to support the newest Minecraft Beta version

http://hey0.net/get.php?dl=serverbeta&list

Hey0 is now ready for the masses. You should have just had an email update informing you that Hey0 is ready for installation on your servers – you’ll be able to play again!!!

Prior to this, you may not have been able to connect to your server because your client auto updates and Hey0 requires updating from its creators. Boo! It’s all good now – the wait is over!

Merry Christmas. Omega is down.

Yeah… Omega has some kind of issue. It went down again tonight… Merry Christmas. Blimey.

Restart your servers on Omega dudes.

Beta goes down for ram upgrade. Estimated down time 1 hour.

Any one on the beta box will have to restart their servers when the box is back up.

Beta going down for memory upgrade

Beta was provisioned with four gigs of memory, which is not enough. We’re having the box fixed up and moved to eight gigs but that means they will be powering off the box in a moment. We’re sorry, but we have to get the memory in there. :-(

EDIT: Maintenance Completed!

Beta is online. Move there, Please!!!

beta.hostedgameservers.com has come online today. This box is in Central USA and sports plenty of room for new customers.

If you are having any kind of lag issues, I would much appreciate if you could head over to Beta in Central. There has been overcrowding while we were waiting for new hardware so the more people that move the better.

We have NOT had a chance to flash beta to a new enhanced precision core yet – game FPSs are capped around 300. When we do this, it will require an outage for everyone on the box for a couple hours. We normally do this before launching the server, but because we need capacity so bad and the users who use higher FPS games are so low, we’re tossing it out now.

Gamma Poops

Gamma went down. Restart your servers. What the hell is up today?!

Omega rolls over :-(

Omega hath died. No, this does not mean that the second coming of Jesus has ended. This just means you’re going to have to restart your servers on Omega.

We’re not entirely sure what happened yet, but whatever it was, the NIC wouldn’t even ping. It was stone dead. A quick power cycle on the connected power strip brought it back up… we’ll keep an eye on it.

Minecraft updated to beta 1.1_01

You should have an email – get to server updating!

Hey0 is never gonna catch up with this insane release madness.

We’re Overloaded! A new box is on the way.

We’ve plum sold out the two servers we ordered this month and are stirring up another box as soon as the datacenter has one for sale. We’re first in line and have chosen to name the new box ‘Beta’. It will be in Texas with Gamma. Bush would be proud – Yeaaahhawwwww!
