Well after thinking about it for a while, If it was just an "ordinary maintanence" wouldn't brannoc have made a "forum going down for 60 min" thread before it went down? If it was due to a crash then the "estimated 60 min" would not have come up so fast.
It's nothing special dude, don't hold your breath lol.

They're applying the latest patches to forumfall. They're nerfing the fanboys 'blind optimicism' ability, it was too OP since beta was released, and giving the troll's racial ability 'cry vaporware' a small boost because of how weak it is now.
The devs have decided that their current vision for the game is not working and they're going to scrap the whole thing and start over. While this is an unfortunate setback, it will be better for the game and the community in the long run.
Clearly this can mean only one thing... The devs have decided that their current vision for the game is not working and they're going to scrap the whole thing and start over. While this is an unfortunate setback, it will be better for the game and the community in the long run.
Funny how the devs can find 60 minutes to update a board system but yet can't seem to find 5 minutes every week to post news updates.
HAHAHAHA! Oh god, that's too funny! You really think the game devs are the ones updating the forum!? That is SO CUTE!
Man, that made my day! I feel so superior.
HAHAHA oh god, thats too funny! You really think the game devs are the ones that post news updates on the forums!? That is SO CUTE!
That made my day, you're an idiot.
1) forums are maintained by Brannoc.
2) updating a forum is the same as downloading and installing updates for your computer. You find the updates and run the update program. It can be done AFK, so basically takes 5 min, while an update requires careful composistion so as not to accidently promise anything (can take a while).
I am a skeptical supporter of DF. I am not a fanboi nor a troll. I seek the truth in every discussion, and I am truly sorry if I mistakenly state a fallacy.
Man, this really is a new low for you poor Forumfall guys.
For God's sake Aventurine, just ship the damn thing!
Nobody even cares how bad this game is going to be any more, either they already love it passionately or they never will. It couldn't be any worse than this sad, desperate waiting. Counting the minutes of DF fan site downtimes? Seriously, I can't bear to watch you guys go through this agony any longer. It's inhumane!

Give him a break. He saw a chance to troll and he took it. Even though it made him look silly, he couldnt pass up the chance to sound e-cool.
They dont have much to bash DF about these days, as seen by ridiculous attempted trolls like thinking the people moding and updating the forum are the same people developing the game.

Actually the vast majority of gamers dont waste their time on internet message boards debating pre-release games.
The vast majority of people in the target market for DF will judge the game and choose to purchase it based on its status on release and the reviews it gets. So it may make a little sense to make sure the game is smooth on release.
Granted there are people who will play it no matter what, and those who wouldnt swallow their pride to play a good game if it is good because its DF. Im just saying they are the minority and it isnt even close.

If you logged into the forums, it said 'forum down for maintenance, come back in 60 minutes'. Nobody was counting the time it was down. Also, it isn't a fansite, it was the official Darkfall website.

maintenance?

ok, I'm gonna make a wild guess: migration to the new website

Taking a forum down for maintenance has nothin to do with a Beta....
It could be for a new website though.
yep, it's probably nothing but hope is what drives us so...

as expected

nah only applying the latest patches to vBulletin I guess..

Maybe it's because the developers are not the ones responsible for Forum maintenance?

That made my day, you're an idiot.
Tried: LotR, CoH, AoC, WAR, Jumpgate Classic
Played: SWG, Guild Wars, WoW
Playing: Eve Online, Counter-strike
Loved: Star Wars Galaxies
Waiting for: Earthrise, Guild Wars 2, anything sandbox.

That.... doesn't even make sense. What do news posts have to do with forum maintenance? And yeah, the devs do post news updates (once an ice-age).
ok...now that was funny..../flashback 2003
kudos good sir!
