so basically it closed because the server is a money grab and people who donated realised they want the money back .... and the donation money didn't reached the host it reached your pockets to buy cocaine and pay sheena for some anal .....

and the solution is GIVE US MORE MONEYZ :)))) ahahahahaha

Do you realise how stupid you sound?

If they donation money didn't reach the host, then the servers wouldn't be up at all, and it wouldn't go down because they did a chargeback...

If this run cannot be accomplished tonight, we'll contact you and hopefully we can work out a new date before reset.

Are we at the mercy of waiting for the hosting company to get the wire back into the server again? I've got most of the afternoon off so would be really nice to log in and smash some dwarfs in Uldaman. 

As everyone said, some news would be nice.

 

Keep up the good work!

Thank you for pointing out when people are being idiots. We need more of this. Brain dead idiots get away with too much.

Do anyone know the possibility to transfer to any of the other realms? The other realms never seem to be offline.

"Dear Anathema players, we're still discussing the chargeback fraud incident with our provider, OVH. We hope to have more news for you soon."

I'm afraid there are no realm transfers available.

With the Chinese donation google doc, the money tallied in Discord last night, and the hundreds of random donations not accounted for I think its safe to say Anathema just gained somewhere in the neighborhood of $6,000-$7000 USD. 

$6,500 - $2,000 charge back = $4,500

If the server costs $400-$500 a month to run we just paid for the server for potentially 10 months.

GOOD.

FUCKING.

JOB.

EVERYONE.

Charge back one dollar, three more will take it's place. HAIL HYDRA!

If it's fucking paid for then why the fuck is the server down ?

Are you incapable of reading? Elysium has been labeled by OVH (the host) as a fraud because of the chargeback, and so they have to prove to them that they are not in order to get access to the server again.

The server provider they use, OVH, is a server hosted in France so its just now the middle of the day there.

Also the most important part is that charging back such a large sum of money, $2,000, triggered an automatic "FRAUD" detection service that any and every large business has in place. From the point of view of OVH they were scammed out of $2000 after providing a service. It will take a series of phone calls with the OVH billing department to unlock the account and allow the server to come back online.

You can thank the butthurt children who back charged their direct DONATION to the server.

Euhm, discussing?

Dear mr OVH, 

Due to an unfortunate event our deposit was withdrew, by a malevolent group. They were capable of paying for the server directly, but in the future we will pay the server ourself. This way you wont be faced with these kind of chargeback fraud incidents. 

Here is 2000 euro, now stfu and start this server. Or send our data back and we will find a new server to host our server on. 

The end?

Yes, that is what it is called when two human beings exchange words about a shared topic. A discussion.

Given that this was quite a massive amount of money charged back the hosting company needs to be sure that something like this won't happen again. So there will be a bit of conversation between our Admins and the provider.

You realize OVH is the provider for literally hundreds of servers just like Nost and Elysium.

Blizzard didn't shut down Nost because of them being in France. Nost voluntarily shut down in an attempt to meet and convince Blizzard to release legacy realms.

You really should stop spouting off uninformed non-sense, you're not as informed as you think you are.

So explane to me where would you like to transfer your Anathema char to? Elysium or other servers? Meh it doesn't matter that they are not even on the same patch you should be able to transfer it even to PVE server if you believe enough.... -.-

Ye ye we expected you to be in talk with them, but when you take your time to communicate with us how the world can you possibly fail to mention if we all donated enough or how the economic situation look it is just brutally arrogant.......

Wow, I had no idea it cost that much to keep the servers up, personally I wouldn't mind a cheap subscription fee to play, £1 per person will easily cover the servers, and hey they'll even be a bit left over to treat yourself to an ice cream for your efforts.

 

*Awaits flame for suggesting a subscription fee*

 

Bring it bawbags
