    They have other things to worry about, I'm thinking... at least if the website is up that means the server isn't underwater.

    Yeah, that was my point.


    That other thread BT linked is the rant thread that preceded the TK Official Update Thread.

    In Portuguese the word for "big" is also slang for potato. Simply a translation error.

    No, it's not! LOL I don't even translate anything as I write in English.

    Anyways, what I meant was what BTAutoMag said: I wonder how big (in Gigabytes) is the database on which AO is stored, after so many years. Sorry if I wasn't clear.

    Just my personal directory was over a gig. Some of the other mods had directories that were multiple gigs. This is a LOT of data that has to come down without compression.

    Hmmm?

    you were perfectly clear, some just don't get it, or have got to learn to read it AGAIN.

    If they can blame firearms for crime you can blame autocorrect for mis-translations.

    Personally, I would have done the SQL backup first. The files, while part of AO, are important. However if the server or database goes down, the SQL backup would preserve the post history and content. The files wouldn't.

    Agreed. I feel like these Delaware guys don't really know what they're doing.
