Beware - Major Game Lag Issues Today

[Trilo]

When I logged into EQ this afternoon, my offline trader wasn't up.
Severe chat channel lag on the Universal Chat Service.
Takes about 30 seconds to a minute before EQ recognizes I have requested a task.
Takes on average about 15 seconds to *begin* the zoning process of hitting the zone line, and then it may take a full minute to complete zoning (sometimes less).
I got disconnected ...

Hopefully these get fixed up by raid time tonight!

Ba-a-a-a-a

Got booted from game and cannot get past server select .... say s unknown error

Had both my toons booted as well, one from Evantil, one from Guildhall. Server claims to be up, but have so far been unable to log back in. Also, a couple other servers are down for emergency maintenance at the moment, so seems it's not just Tunare having issues.

Status: 5/28/2014 16:04 PDT - Tunare, Erollisi Marr, and Cazic Thule are currently down for emergency maintenance. ETA 45 minutes.

[Ulaian]

Well, at least the ETA is short enough that we still have a chance to do a raid or two today... if they manage to meet said ETA, of course.

We are just going to cancel raids tonight - even if severs are back at 8ish - there is no guarantee what kind of #'s we will have from people wandering off to go do other things.

[Ulaian]

True enough. Ah well, more to kill tomorrow
