Network Issues

[Veracity]

Thanks for bearing with us so far. In an effort to keep everyone informed, we want to let you know that the server is currently being attacked. Although we have DDoS protection, we've been experiencing extremely large attacks against the server that exceed our protection. Genesis has been working with the host to try to mitigate it as much as possible, and we're doing everything we can to get things back to normal.

I want everyone to know that nothing is going to happen to the server, and we will not close. Your characters and all of your progress in game are 100% safe. This isn't the first time we've been attacked, and we always get through it. We are 110% dedicated to the server and aren't going anywhere. In fact, we have a lot of really big and exciting updates planned for the near future!

We hope you'll understand our situation and continue to be patient and supportive. We'll make sure to keep everyone informed about what's going on, when the server is back up, and any other developments.

Thanks again for your patience,

ForsakenRO Staff

We discovered a network issue not related to the DDOSing we were experiencing. We are working to resolve it ASAP. I apologize for the inconvenience!

The server is back online for the time being! I am working with the host to attempt to decrease the amount of downtime these attacks cause.

The attacks continue, we will keep you guys updated. I just want to reiterate, we are not closing, this is a temporary set back and we will get through this as we have gotten through it before.

We just want to update everyone that we've obtained the person who is attacking the server's IP address and information. If the attacks don't stop, our host is going to work with us to report them to the FBI cyber crime unit, their ISP PLDT, as well as the hosting services they're using, like Energy Group Network and others. DDoS attacks and extortion are very serious crimes and won't be handled lightly.
