As lot of you know i`ve been playing since december 2001 and not one for making many posts. But its getting to the stage where i`m thinking of looking for another game to play( no great loss you might say). I love this game and all its player base,on the most part brilliant community,but for the love of god at least keep us informed when things go wrong,we ask MODS,they dont know,we ask an admin if he shows himself or makes himself known,but we rarely see one when MV is down.So in short please give a broadcast now and again,just to reassure ppl your doing what you can.I realise you making a broadcast stops you working on the problem,but at least we would be informed.
P.S. my only other problem is if i cant find another game i`ll have to sit downstairs watching TV with the wife,and we dont want that to happen do we:p

This is becoming a serious issue. The weekends are usually the time when most people can play this game. And yet the game has been down for most of Sunday for three consecutive weeks.
This is _very_ bad faith on the part of the providers, especially because no apology, remedy or even an explanation is made.
Our player base is unfortunately getting used to the sound of silence, and now take it for granted that this should be the case, but in all fairness, this is plain unacceptable.
Not only have we not received a single update in a very long time, but now, there's hardly a peep out of admins or Faustus when the server goes down for hours on end.
It's rather disappointing.

I agree. Also found found this reading the RoC.
Game Officials / Staff
Game Officials are generally Players and/or PaleStar employees who fulfill a particular functional role in the DarkSpace Community which supports the infrastructure of the DarkSpace Game System. They fall into the following general categories and basic purposes:
PaleStar Employees - Provide for the existence, maintenance, and continued development of the DarkSpace Game System, the DarkSpace Community, and its associated infrastructure.
Administrators - Maintain critical game functionality and integrity, as well as serve as DarkSpace Community leaders who organize and maintain the integrity of the community.
Moderators - Aid Players, police Game Communication Facilities and Game Instances for abuse, maintain certain information sources (like the FAQ or manual), and provide help for problems encountered with the operation of the game as well as answer Player questions. Moderators may have specific areas of expertise about which they are known to provide accurate advice. However, they are not expected to be a replacement for the many information sources found in the game, including the FAQ, the Manual, and the Knowledge Base. Their presence serves to augment the existing information base and to resolve issues that Players may encounter with the game or each other.
Server Operators - Run / maintain the hardware platform and the configuration for DarkSpace Game Instances.
So if we have to follow the RoC shouldn't they?

(other than when a update or verion was just released)
