Just canceled premium, not going to pay for a product that doesn't work or the maintainer has abandoned.
Then why do you still pay for FFXI?

Current GW 500 is due to the cache server itself (not just the service) being offline. I can't fix that - no access to the main console - gotta be Stan. Sorry.

Welp wrap it up boys she's dead and gone.

Is he in violation of any trade laws? Can he charge money for a service without maintaining that service? At the very least he's probably vulnerable to bank/cc charge backs.

Does anyone live near San Francisco? I feel like it would be easy to stop by the Guildwork office and speak with him in person.

I just reached out to him as well through other channels, lets see if he responds..

Think I might have resurrected the cache server.

Let's find out!

Edit: Yep, it's back. Without getting into the details, it wasn't responding to the management software anymore, but I still had an old shell session connected. I tend to leave one open since that box is the one that needs the most kicking. Problem solved (for now, anyway)

Duct tape and WD40 will fix it if all else fails.

I saw this coming like 2 years ago, no idea why people still pay for the services on there. Not to mention their guildwork chat thing was literally cancer, the whole site was dragged down due to that.

Actually, although its completely irrelevant, how do you get your server ranking thing on your page? when I moved to Asura and set it up it never came up, is that to do with the guildwork thing being broken?

Guildwork still updated a few things, levels etc. But points/rankings died when LSC died really. Guildwork doesn't pull things like titles, mission progress and such.

Iirc, Stan made Discord shortly after Guildwork. Discord is way more profitable/a better investment on his part. He left Guildwork to Rooks and 1 or 2 other people, but didn't give them enough control to actually add/change anything, from what I've gathered. So it's slowly falling apart and being held together by tape and dreams.

Fixed.

There's a very specific service that implodes, and about 95% of the 500 errors are the direct result of that. I should probably just set it to restart that service on a loop or timer

Has anyone tried to get in touch with Stan over Twitter? I recall seeing a thread two months ago about Guildwork on the FFXIV Reddit and someone commented about getting a response on Twitter from him.

Stan handed it over to some other guy a couple months ago I thought? And there hasn't been word from either of them since afaik.

I can't dig up the thread but from my understanding they went to Stan's personal twitter and didn't use the Guildwork twitter. Something along the lines of wanting to convert their GW Premium to Discord Nitro I think.

[EDIT] Here's the Reddit thread after a quick Googling

Thank you for fixing this mister my weapons show correct now. My question though any idea possibly why everytime I flush it never updates my missions or assaults? Do I need to delete my main from siren showing on guildwork etc?
