Server Issues?

Hey everyone. Does anyone know what is up with the server right now? I get to the "Logging in" stage, but I get stuck there. I have friends that I play with on this server who have the same problem, so I know it isn't just me. When will it be back up?

^ I am also having the same problem. please respond. is it us or the server?

oh, and hey mike haha

the server, it's always the server, get on Teamspeak and there should be someone who can restart it.

Thanks!
close the thread :p
