Server is shortly down to do the latest Hotfix and run update-validation check to search for corrupted files

I am returning and will be around fulltime! Basically everyday!

Server is down for Backups and Maintenance at the Moment!

Hey guys, important link to check out concerning the rebalancing. http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/app/346110/discussions/0/451850020337486595/

~~~ Due to a fatal error from this last update the server is crashing before fully booting. The server will be unoperational until a fix is released by the devs. I am truely sorry for the inconvenience and I feel your frustration for being unable to access the server.~~~

** A friendly reminder to all. If you are having trouble finding the password to the server make sure you click the rules link above, the password is stated at the end. **

Third time server crashed, should be up shortly. I am sorry for the inconvenience, but i have no idea what is causing these freezes.

Server froze yet again, i have restarted it. hope its the only one tonite

Server will be offline for some time for a backup, no worries standard procedure, just takes some time

In the early days he accepted all till his FL was full, btw he did mention it again in one of his latest vids on primal extinction^^

astaroshe but how did other people become his friends then?

damn i do watch just never heard him say that

Smithy if you'd watch BIS Vids you'd know that he does not accept Steam-Friend-Requests^^

@spookysharks plz add me

BIS can u add me as a friend i sent u a request plz add me

Hm, yeah. The best way to contact him is through Twitter, then on YT on his latest videos. Though maybe even a fan hosted fan group might just be good to share Bis related stuff to each other, and also as a dino fan group.

I actually think BIS does not rlly want such a Fangrp...I remember him sayin in one of his older vids that he does not accept any new Friends on Steam to keep everyone on the same "Level" and that it's already very crowded on Youtube...imagine he would have to maintain and read through another Grp that will be swarmed with ppl: Even more things to read and we all know that he already only notices the most recent Posts on Youtube etc..

So, I feel Bis should have a fan group, where I could ask about his cameo in my dinosaur novel, and discus sloths. This group should staay for the Ark server, but ho else is up for a proper Bis group?

Damnit. I fell for it. Was wondering how the hell the virus worked.

for any1 how rlly believed the "NisseFar and NIvek" stuff...It's a hoax (as it was in 2009) neither you nor someone that is just on your FL can get a virus from a friend-add only if your pc would actually download sth a virus can get on your PC!

For any who do not know already, this is a warning. DO NOT accept friend request invites for the following names: NisseFar and NIvek. This is a scam that installs a virus on your computer that kills your harddrive. If any of your friends accept them you also get the virus through them as well.

Yays update :)

Why is Bis called spookysharks? LOL! <3

I destroyed my paracer platform and made a plesio but it still says the server limit is reached for mobile bases. Is anyone willing to contact me in game and destroy a base of theirs for me? (Its really for Mark but same dkifference) if u can I get on at around 5:30 mountain

guys i cant join the server and i dont know why :(

New biomes ETA 8:30 est unless delayed further

Can't acces forums via mobile...I am truly sorry fir all that lost stuff due to that raid of the public mining outpost and rlly sad that we have someone on the server acutally doing such a thing...hopefully I'll be back soon

I will just leave it here and let the hype grow...

we need to restrict some areas most houses are blocking spawns

is the server operateing right now

Thank you, i do have two screenshot to share.

Either directly to the admins (Sagasol or DefectedZombie) or in a new Discussion here Loki...best to have screens to proof the claims though

I'm sorry, but I'm quite new here. I was told to post somewhere to report a player for stealing. Where/How would go about doing this?

I can not wait to get them Pachycephalosaurus I want army of them. :P

Anyone going to patch the server for 207? Once you update you cant log in until its patched. Only six people on the server at the moment so I am assuming most people cant get on either.

You don't enter the IP to search for it...most easy way is to check the Link in the Ark Videos of BIS and with ark closed klick on the IP there...then it should automatically connect you...and then you can search for it with the survivors filter and favorite it

Can anyone help me actually join the BIS server? I have ark, and I tried entering the IP into the search bar in the server menu. I am very new to ark so I dont know much, please help :D

i too had a spino down, and i just picked a fight with a rex for its lovely primes... i'm gonna lose my best trained ptera and my best argent

Yeah my tribe mates finally found a good spino for one of our guys and tame was going great. If server stays down for any length of time we will have to lose it due to sleep time. Ah well .. the perils of not having a server admin.

Why crash why Y_Y

Any admins on the server being offline right now?

I can't get on for a few days, so don't think I quit :P

206.2 is now on the recent patch notes, hoping for swift implentation. TY all for being patient while the server has been down.

awesome ^_^

did that too already

TY Astaroshe, we should get someone to post that on teh arkserver.net comments as well so people that havent joined the steamgroup can know about it. Time to get patient =)

Note to all: The server is down till hopefully the next update that fixes the local "Phantom Rain" Bugs that can cause server-crashes that even ruin the savedata

If anyone is looking for a tribe to join we are now recruiting

It appears people can still import gear, this needs to be stopped!

Bleh, semi-major update v203.1 is keeping me from joining the server Y_Y
