Thanks to all of you who have been active members of the Ruins of Chaos gaming community this age.

We are pleased to announce that Age 3 2/3 will end on Saturday, 20th March 2010, at 12:00 Server Time.

As with all great plans, sometimes unexpected changes must be made somewhere between concept and completion, and that is what has happened here in Ruins of Chaos. While it was our intention to run Beta 4 concurrently with the end of this age, our plans were delayed and ultimately changed due to unfortunate and unforseeable circumstances. As a result, Age 4 Beta will begin right after the end of Age 3 2/3.

We are excited about the coming Beta and Age 4. Players can expect to benefit from many changes including upgraded features, totally new code, redesigned graphics, a more powerful server, and other game enhancements as the beta progresses. We also want to make sure the DNS switch is successful, the new server is steady, and the Beta is up and running smoothly before we start game play again; so there will be up to 12 hours of downtime between the end of Age 3 2/3 and the start of Age 4 Beta.

Remember, your participation in the Beta will help us make Ruins of Chaos an even better gaming experience for everyone. So get ready to experience the fun and chaos of Age 4 Beta!

Mandie, Ray loves you and wants to spend the rest of his life with you.
You don't have to say 'yes' to forever, but all of us think you should say 'yes' to giving it a shot.
What do you say? Let's see some fireworks.

In light of recent illegal activity, we have decided to update the rules.

The following has been added:

"We reserve the right to remove or reverse a sell that has been sold off via illegal means"

Note: Expect a news bulletin regarding Age 4 Beta shortly

We're sorry that the server wasn't responding this morning.

The FastCGI protocol died which took the entire server down with it temporarily until we got online to restart the process.

Due to the minor length of the downtime (3 hours) there will be no compensation given.

hub @ ruinsofchaos.com had some connectivity issues which split ceti.ruinsofchaos.com and ketu.ruinsofchaos.com from each other.

The issue seems to of been fixed now and services seem back to normal, sorry for the inconvenience caused.

Services of IRC resumed back to normal at 2:07 PM server time (7:07 PM GMT).
