If I am not mistaken, that downtime can't be anything less than 3 hours this time. I used the update I received on a telegram group to judge this which I believe is way more. You know what? I believe that people were more panicky this time than the last ones judging by the recent developments going on in the forum.
Well, I hope that we can be updated regularly on the cause of the downtime or even be warned before it happens at all.
The last time, I encountered downtime it was for 3 hours. Don't know what happen. Who knows if it's really a random issue or some kind of attack attempt. Theymos did they, that it was some server side problem. The most concerning part it the downtimes are becoming more frequent and longer. That is what what starts the panics.
There's no how there wouldn't be any form of glitches on the means to get access to the forum or internet as there's no assurance that things like this will not keep happening, though it may mean nothing but it's better that we know there will occasional experience like this, regarding the downtime, sometimes it may be due to the upgrade made to the forum or the other related internet connectivity challenges from accessing the forum, but the good thing is that it's all nothing to worry a about.
