Hardware Failure on Raid

We're recovering from a hardware failure on our Raid5 drives. 2 out of 3 'died' last night, very randomly. Luckily we have some this information backed up off site and it is safe. Otherwise we would have suffered from a complete wipe.

Appreciate the patience you guys are showing, we do have the test map open for 1.8 on port 1337 if you are interested, it does have Heroes at a x10 leveling rate so you can test out the latest skills, etc you may not get to see for weeks on the live server.

We're rolling back Mysql to 3 days ago (Coins/LWC protections) Will be 3 days old - NO MAP/LEVEL rollback at all.

unfortunately we just lost two out of four of our harddrives. This is the absolutely best thing we can do.

If you bought two LWC's for 1000 you will lose the LWC's and get the money back.
If you used/gained any money it will be reset to what you had 3 days ago.

Sucks for anyone who'd been saving gold in the past couple days. if map isn't rolled back too, it's pretty much just gone if they just sold it, I think.

Still encountering errors on the tables of Mysql - running a repair, was up til 4am working on it.

It will be back up today.

The issue should now be fixed. I had to compensate for the space loss from the hardware failure, the mysql is now residing in an area that should have more than enough room.

Again, this took a lot of time and wasnt an easy or clean fix but it should sustain us until we can get in two new drives or find a better solution.
