Hello,
I feel terrible to have say this to you, but I have lost it this time. Tibera has earned too many enemies.
The main problems are that the current hosting company wasn't the best choice and is not capable of handling so high bandwidth attacks. The second problem is that PayGol "steals" ~75% of the money end users pay, which makes it very unprofitable and difficult to afford good DDoS protection. Since I can't use ZayPay this time, I am pretty much stuck. The third problem is that I have a job and university. Fixing these attacks takes time. I have mailed and offered decent sums of money to some "specialists" and top OTS owners, but so far I have got only ignoring or refusal. (thx Cykotitan for help though).
In conclusion, is the Tibera era over? I don't know, most likely... All the current accounts will be saved and stored on a safe backup. In case there is a next launch, the players who purchased points will still have them, so keep your acc name/pw somewhere, just in case... I learned a lot from this launch, so if I ever find the time to figure out how to solve these main problems (summer vacation mby?), Tibera might go online once again. But who knows... Working as a programmer takes a lot of time and the pay isn't that bad to make me additionally work my ass off on an OTS...
Though, I like OTS and since I have been Tibia freak myself, I find it fun to do these things.
So yeah, the server will stay online for ~2 weeks till the rent runs out and then it will be closed. (this is not Aprils joke btw...)
I really tried, sorry,
Ritvars
