[Finally got TS up again :) ] - 1/8/2011
------------------------------------
Well, I finally got a new TS up, and its TS3!

A while ago... quite a while now.. >.< the remote server
I was using to host teamspeak from went down, and I no longer
had my setup at my house to host it properly. I believe I was
taking classes then too? Eitherway, I remember it was on my
mind for a while, but I never managed to get to it, and before
long it had been a month or more? and I let it slip my mind...

I know some people were still using it, so sorry for it being
down for such a long time.

As of this writing its up but not really configured yet, and I
don't have time to right this moment, actually I need to finish
this little news post here too. I guess we'll just see what
happens from here.

[The future...] - 1/19/2010
------------------------------------
This site will stay up, but its future is uncertain, I haven't
worked on this site in a while, the wiki has been broken for a
while too and I felt bad about that, when it first happened I spent
several days working on it for hours, before I had to take a break.
I never really made much progress, though I believe the database is intact.

The Dawn of Iskirra may be the next path for the former Rubies community,
I really don't know, anyway you can head over there: http://forums.iskirra.net/


[Teamspeak IP changed] - 7/18/2008
------------------------------------
The Address you use to connect to my Teamspeak has changed.
The new address to connect to is: 75.102.27.250:8767

Teamspeak is now running on a server hosted by Art of War Central, in chicago on a 100Mbit line to the internet. I was able to put teamspeak onto this hosted dedicated server because I helped a friend set some stuff up on it.

Users should expect decreased ping times, voice delays, lag, and unexepected shutdowns.

A Big thanks goes to 'ShockFactor' of Defenders of Valor for the space on this dedicated server which costs them like $170 a month or so.

Also you might have noticed, I have moved the Teamspeak Display to the front page, below the shoutbox.

[RoE-Wiki no longer marked 'beta'] - 12/22/2007
------------------------------------
I decided that with as much content as it has now and with the much appreciated help of the community regarding the wiki, that it was time to remove its 'beta' status as it has developed quite a bit thanks to many wonderful players. Thank you so much, it really is for the community and by the community.

Thank you again to all those who have contributed! :)

[Small Update and a Note] - 11/24/2007
------------------------------------
I just realized that the server status page still said halberd, so I changed the text to say Nemesis and fixed the description a bit. Hope there is no weirdness as I still need to change the name in the code, but I think it should be fine for now. And I fixed the paypal donation button, which I believe hasn't worked for a bit now

Also, I am sorry to those who may have sent in links, via the submit a link thing, but it turns out it has been being spammed hardcore and I didn't realize it (Thanks to the way I have my mail client setup.. doh!) And so I lost any mails that may have been sent by real people aswell. I will get it fixed soon.. I promise(which is a big deal given my tendency to put things off unwitingly.)

I also want to get my new theme finished and up before the new year. Hope you all like it, I will keep a way for you to go back to the old one of course.

[RoE-Wiki and Spammers] - 9/27/2007
------------------------------------
Due to the continuous assault on the wiki by spam bots, I have disabled the ability for unregistered users to edit it. This means you must create an account and/or login to make changes. I apologize for the inconviences and all the spam, I have tried to remove all of it but if you find and leftovers feel free to remove them. Thank you.

[Changes, Current and Upcoming] - 9/25/2007
------------------------------------
I have Added a new link for a web-based IRC client pointed at the #rubies channel on Dunny's server, gamers-united.us
In addition I have renamed the pointer to the old link to show the server it connects to, AusIRC, so you can tell them apart more easily.

Oh and I am working on a refit for the whole site, I have had a refit to the underlying framework mostly completed for a while, which is the first step towards adding more features and such. I have also decided to redo the theme and install it with the new code. I plan on using a modified theme I created for another rubies related thing I am working on, it should look really nice, I just need to get the layout ideas pinned down a bit more.

[New ISP] - 12/12/2006
------------------------------------
I have switched to a new ISP which is faster and cheaper, this means that you may have some trouble getting into Teamspeak for a bit and that the IP address is different. The domain names, such as ts.rubiessquare.com have been configured to point to the new IP but it could take up to 24 hours or more for it to filter all over the internet.

[Web-IRC Client] - 4/4/2006
------------------------------------
An alternative web-based IRC client for connecting to the Rubies IRC chat is now available on Rubies Square. This is useful if the main website is down or you just simply don't like the official chat sofware but don't want to or know how to install an IRC client, this java-based client will run directly in your web browser and has alot of features, like being in multiple channels at once, etc. You can access this feature by either clicking the 'RoE IRC Chat' menu option of going to: http://www.rubiessquare.com/pjirc/ Enjoy! :)

[Teamspeak Display] - 2/14/2006
------------------------------------
You can now see who is in the Rubies Square Teamspeak server on this website, simply click the Teamspeak menu option. Enjoy! :)

------------------------------------

[Report a Server] - 1/24/2006
------------------------------------
I'm happy to announce a couple of new features on the server status page, the page now stores the server status for 5 minutes and simply reports that, to prevent excessive pings to the RoE game servers, the old way it checked every single time the page loaded. And most noteably, players can now report if a server is hanging on entering world or otherwise not working right. At the moment is shows the total reports within the past 12 hours, as well as the reports given within the past hour.

It is my hope that this will make it easier for players to know and inform others when a server may be having problems, as well as help those who can reset the servers.

------------------------------------

[Submit a link, mail system failure] - 1/17/2006
------------------------------------
*sigh* seems for a looooong looooong time.. don't know how long though... but a looooooooooooong time.. my links submissions haven't been getting through... I have no idea why as the script hasn't changed since it did work.. my only guess is bellsouth did something... I apologize to all those who have submitted links and never been acknowledged.

------------------------------------

[Long time no type] - 1/14/2006
------------------------------------
Been a while since I've updated the news, I've been distracted from working on the site, my apologies, site development is slow, but hopefully will start to progress some, if albeit slowly.

Addition: Just thought about adding a little more info that popped in my head, I hope to be redoing the site's entire framework, right now the site works ok but is very static and if anything goes wrong it will probably look very wierd, take linking to something that doesn't exist, like this... I hope to redo it using some of ideas I've gotten on code s tructure from phpBB, and Mambo, hopefully it will be more dynamic, and handle errors better, as well as have a functioning users system, hopefully with some intergration into the forums.
