I think its quite rude and without respect for players efforts to do a maintenance without a warning
Hello,
I know that maintenance is normally scheduled for late Tuesday night/early Wednesday morning, but I was on the game earlier today and made a not of the fact that there was no notice of any scheduled maintenance.
So i left all my buildings, mines etc running to go and eat, relax for a few hours, with the intention of returning later at night to check on my mines etc and buff friends & myself (as i normally do most evening late at night, being an officer of guild and group-forum Admin.), and/or to also zzzz items on my island accordingly, as I would normally do on all other scheduled maintenance nights.
Anyway, upon my return @ 3am UK GMT time, I was unable to log-in and after checking the forum here, discovered that the servers were down for unscheduled maintenance that had not been announced !
I must say I am very disappointed at BB's start to the new year, and as usual, very little or no information regarding the issue available anywhere other than here where folk are all clambering for info !
Some say it is because it is Beta game and we should just leave it at that, but others,myself included, believe this is bad management & that the Beta tag should be removed OR the "retail" version be removed from retail shops and high-street stores, surely it cannot be Beta & retail at the same time ?!!
So, on behalf of all the TSO players, thank you for a great start to the new year , you have probably lost faith in yet more regular players/supporters of TSO.
I hope this issue is resolved and an apology issued to all users ASAP, as you will now need to try and restore your faith in the TSO community.
Kind regards, and I await your reply.
ice-maiden, nope nobody knows, good thing we are in Sunny Qld and can enjoy the beach until they sort it all out
agreed i always check for maintence on homepage and make sure all my mines fields wells are built,but tonight came as a shock as i was in a rush to get it all done in time and still didnt get enough time, an apology would be nice for now i will be returning to the game with no mines or troops built thx bb :/
