yes they're down.
emergency maintenance.
they dont know the problem and they dont know when they'll be back up again.
on the plus side the server status page is working and does show the servers down (yay)

Folks should really check the announcement section of the forums more often.
Granted, they are running 8 minutes behind schedule..

Yay for that!
So, now the question is, are Guardian, Justice, and Triumph still down? And is there announcement on them that I've missed? I've not had luck getting on to justice, myself, but haven't tried Guardian or Triumph.
Are the servers actually down?
Because i'm getting the message when I try to log in that they are.
