RoyalStorm server outage:
- The outage reported on the 10 March is still ongoing. The current expected resolution date is being postponed as I am unable to be available to receive the technician visit. The next communication on this topic will be once the problem is confirmed as fixed.

yay... Zabbix is back 8)

On a more serious note, you should get an ups. Most of of the problems with electronic devices and dc adapters are caused by power spikes/outages. Don't need to get anything fancy with more than 1KVA to last for hours, just as long as it is from a decent brand and provides 10/15m of bat power is good enough.

Website/Forum resources related with Twitch:
- Due to Twitch changing their API, all our resources related with it stopped working.
- We already did manual changes that made our resources work again to their main functionality, but some small issues still need to be fixed.

RoyalStorm server maintenance:
- One of our servers will receive maintenance tonight (25-Oct) and will have to be restarted, affected services will be Minecraft/Terraria/TS-Backup. Keep an eye on our shoutbox for real time updates.

Forum:
- HTTPS fully implemented and forced.

HTTPS mode had been silently implemented and under beta testing some months ago, but as of today is being forced and no longer optional.
Any HTTP attempts will be redirected to the secured/encrypted mode.
This is a security feature that had been requested to us for a long time. Glad that we were able to implement it. 8)

Forum / Website:
- We are aware of the loading problem of the Teamspeak viewer. The root cause is known, but will take maybe a few days to fix.

Website:
- Created new URLs, that do redirects.

Thus easier to memorize the URLs and find multiple things RoyalStorm related.

Voice solution:
- Our official voice solution is now Discord. The server invitation URLs are https://discord.gg/3Z33bER (for Discord client) or http://royalstorm.eu/voice (for web browsers).
If it is your first time connecting to the server we will have to update your membership inside of it, so you can change channels on your own (Send a direct message to one of the administrators).

The reason for the change is that Teamspeak3 is outdated (2011) and Teamspeak5 has failed to be released as announced (2018).
Discord has been chosen as it was referenced by several RoyalStormers, we completed a 1 month test trial and despite some short comings we decide to keep Discord.

As for our TeamSpeak servers, the main server will be turned off and the backup server will be kept (to use if Discord service fails).
Our website will be updated in the coming days to reflect the change to Discord.

(During September 2020)

Forum:
- Corrected all the broken links that were still referring to the https* urls.
- Cleaned up the footer clocks and added Australia.
- Removed the Teamspeak server preview on the top right corner.

Website menu:
- Corrected the broken display, that was still partially depending on the https*.
- Replaced the option and page referring to Teamspeak as a voice solution. Now it properly displays our Discord server.

Discord:
- Created extra roles and channels to deal with the Space Engineers public server now associated with RoyalStorm.
- Discord server converted into Community server.

* In the near future we will use again https on our forum/website, but that takes longer to implement than quickly fixing the temporary errors.
