reboots/restarts warning...

umm... All the time when you restart/reboot the server you tell everyone in blue "Save now!" etc. etc.

Well, I think that you SHOULD use pop up in order to tell everyone to save/log out.

it will be much more noticable since there are people which close their chat logs....

We used to have Server Restarts at 6PM Central and 12AM Central automatically, but people wouldn't get off when they should have and fucked up there characters.

I agree that people should get out when asked, but sometimes it isnt noticable!
I mean, when the chat log is closed/+trading, "shopin", etc.

It's very rare for me or others to notice a blue line which says "save now"
and thats not the main reason...
That usually happens because GMs mass spam chating in blue (no bad feelings yea?) and sometimes people just stop reading their conversations...

I hope you get what I mean...

shurigun has a point
ther r alot of ppl tht ignore notices
if we cud use pop-up notices wen som1 is about 2 restart
tht wud b better
less ppl wud complain if the char gets messed up
if if they do
its there fault kuz we put it wer every1 cud c

i suggest remove the yellow announcement in the top window and just use it for emergency / server announcing purposes

that scrolling msg makes me lag too XD

no1 reads tht either
