 | |  |  | |  |  | | | | | | | | As you may be aware, Dr Bones recently lost his ship, the Quark, in what appeared to be a freak radiation accident. One Grand Admiral Charaznable led a valiant and successful mission to track down the missing ship. Unfortunately, one of his subordinates tripped the Quark's defensive systems when he got too close, resulting in the ship ultimately being destroyed. Despite this, Charaznable was duly rewarded for locating the vessel and, more importantly, recovering the black box data recorder from the wreckage.

| | | | | | | The famed explorer, Dr Cincinnati Bones, was recently found drifting in a runabout between the Luyten and Tripwik systems. It appears his ship, the Quark, was hit by a radiation flare while he was out in a scout ship investigating an anomaly. This flare caused the Quarks artificial intelligence to emergency jump into hyperspace. Unfortunately it appears that the flare damaged the Quarks guidance systems, leaving the ships AI lost, and the poor doctor stranded in his little scout ship with no way to get home.

| | | | | | | It has taken us 6 years to get there, but on the 18th March 2007 we finally reached 140,000 user registrations! Hopefully, with a little effort, the support of the community (and the upcoming patch), we can achieve the next 140,000 in a slightly shorter timespan. Thank you to everyone who has made this possible and for all of the community members who have stuck with us through the years.
Here's to the future!

| | | | | | | We have recently been reviewing profile signature sizes and noticed that they are starting to creep up once again, not just in dimensions, but also in file size.
It has therefor been decided to publish some definite guidelines regarding signatures.
From now on, all signatures are expected to conform to the following specifications:
- Signatures images must be no more than 500px in width.
- Signatures images must be no more than 200px in height.
- The total signature file size must not exceed 50kb.
- Multiple signature images are allowed, but the total signature size must not exceed the above dimensions or file size.
- Animated signatures are allowed, but the total file size must not exceed the above dimensions or file size.
These limits are necessary in order for the forums to maintain readability, and to reduce excessive load times that can often be caused by profile signatures, in particular for users who have older internet connections.
Thank you for your co-operation.
-The Staff.

| | | | | | | Player rankings are now calculated in an off-line process every Tuesday at midnight CST. The on-demand rankings were killing the database, leading to lag in-game and slow web-site response times. Hopefully, this change will improve performance for everyone in-game and on the website.
Additionally, when viewing your rankings from your profile, if you select the category link it will display the rankings table with your rank highlighted in red. Making it so much easier to compare your rank against your friends.
NOTE: This does NOT affect your in-game rank or prestige calculations. This change only affects the "website" player to player rankings.

| | | | | | | The recent issues with the game servers and the resulting downtime have apparently been due to ongoing malicious attacks against our server network, intentionally attempting to crash our database and the other game servers.
This has resulted in an abnormally high number of disconnects and server errors, and resulted in a significantly deteriorated game play experience for most of our users.
The major avenues of attack have now been blocked, and the game servers have returned to near-normal operation.
Please understand that although our Game Staff are doing what we can, there is still the possibility of a lower than usual level of performance if such attacks continue.
