IP Ban? - Ra! - 07-03-2008
Earlier today (Not so long ago) I logged out of Discovery, went and got some food and when i came back, i couldnt log into the server, It gives me the messages
Quote:'Please Wait. The requested operation is taking longer than expected.
Press ESC to cancel.'
and then like 2 seconds later (literally)
Quote:I'm sorry, but a connection could not be established to that server. This is
usually caused by a server going offline when you attempted to connect to it. It
may also be caused by Internet problems. Please try again later.
Its not my internet, because my vent and this webpage are working, I've restarted my computer, modem and router aswell. Also changed account ID's, still nothing.
Any help?

Be patient and try again later.
Its not an IP ban.

You'll likely see the same thing whenever the server happens to crash between the time you get the list of servers and the time you log in. If you refresh the server list, chances are the server will be missing for a while.
Also, please tell me you're not referring to side mods with that last part. Contributions to Discovery are encouraged as long as they fit with the ideals of the mod, but running extra mods alongside Disco is a big no-no. Even if "used for good", they can cause more harm than good with regards to server stability.

I meant so i can help add systems/ships/weapons etc. etc.
Everything would be submitted here.
I just lack imagination and computing skills
EDIT: Been almost an hour of it non-stop (well i took a break, but yeah, its still the same thing)
Everyone else seems to be able to log in...
EDIT OF EDIT: Can log into other servers freely...

There are large hacking attempts and modding goin on right now.
I'd wait till tomorrow or something.
