Apologies for seeming 'inactive' recently but I would just like to clear a few things up!
Apologies for the downtime yesterday. As a few of you from HavenCraft may know, servers often restart every few hours due to the high amount of memory (and memory leaks) FTB has. Our server doesn't currently have this feature, and so now and then it does leak memory and crash due to this. It can take anywhere between one and five days for this to happen, and simply restarting the server fixes this. I can do this in seconds so long as I am on my computer connected to the internet.
Yesterday, the server was down for a long time. As Blockolot stated, work is a contributing factor (as I often don't get home until about 6pm, 6.30. Unfortunately, I couldn't be at a computer that evening as I was at a concert performing as part of a Jazz Band (I play the saxophone for those that didn't know), and I only got home at 10:30pm. You'll note that it was up within minutes of me getting home!
Please feel free to add me on Skype! (My username is 'Robbo905'.) _Castiel and Stirky have already done this. Stirky does know me in real life so that if I'm not connected to the internet, he can send me a text and I can try and find a work around (which usually involves setting up my phone as a personal hotspot for 5 minutes and throwing it out a window).
Finally, be assured that the server is going nowhere! Any donations I receive will go straight into the upkeep of this server but nonetheless, I have ran many servers before and just because this server is new, it doesn't mean it's more likely to disappear. Because of my history of running servers, I know I can and that I will keep this one running as long as possible!
Thank you for taking the time to read this, and thank you for being a part of Arelia! I hope I've cleared things up.
P.S. All above applications that haven't been accepted have been denied I'm afraid (With the exception of Cyberin; welcome to the server!) - Now that we have a strong community, we need much stronger applications!
