Did the hamsters just die?

[pppppppp]

unfortunately they havent bothered to update anything about anything on those since 12 august.

so looking at them yesterday during the update and today during this incident netted no info...so much for keeping folks informed.

Oh darn! That's a bit of a disappointment then, isn't it? :-/*sigh!*
Just hope they update next time there's a similar problem then.

I see all kinds of updates on Facebook - seems to me they did just fine using alternative methods of notification.

Anyone else finding there's still a lot of lag ATM?

well i will admit i do not subscribe to social networks and am unsure of how to make them work.

so can you explain why when i go to facebook.com/lotro the last entry on the wall there is about the lotro store from 12 august?

is there is a different facebook page?

also on the twitter side the last time i checked was ~6-7pm GMT-6 yesterday and there was nothing newer there since 12 aug.

it seems though an hour or 2 after i checked they started tweeting, a little late since the problem was already many hours old.

That is interesting. I am not on Facebook user either but when I Googled "lotro facebook" I got the page and the top post was the information about the servers.

Yes, unfortunately, due to last night's issues, we were unable to properly update the forums and websites here. Both were hit with heavy performance load, resulting in slow or non-existent load times. I was actually trying to post to the forums, but was also unable to get them to load.

If you are unable to access our main websites, our Twitter and Facebook will always have the current status of any issues that we may be experiencing. Even if you don't have accounts on either of those sites, you will be able to view our posts and updates without signing in.

Our Twitter and Facebook links are both in my signature, so please make use of them!

Additionally, I just cleared off last night's status updates from our Facebook page in order to keep it up-to-date and relevant. Status messages from the forums have been removed as well, as the service is healthy and those notifications are currently unnecessary.
