Teehee, the chatbox is always a good place to check =D
If other people are also having trouble getting into the game because the server is down, they'll probably be chatting about it =)
Here's a link =)

really SIMPLE solution there, use the chat box as the others have mentioned. The forums chat box is not just there to chat it is often used daily to get real time status of what you ask for.

Yea i know everytime i go into chat box there is info on server status..BUT one problem is like wat happened to me the other day. The server went down and it didnt take me down so i kept WT training and Shape Shifted only to get CIed and find out server was offline. Then i go to chat and find out it had been done for 3+ hours...there goes alll the hard WT training...so yea i think there should be a in game status display.. >.<

i dont know about you guys, but im looking forward to the day when we wont need any sort of way to find out if server is up, one that will be live and running 99% of the time like it used to be! it will happen, the devs jus need some time.

They really do need a bar on the side of this page that says Server Status : online - Offline, bla bla bla. It would really help a lot and it shows professionalism.

Making one of these would not be a problem, rather it wouldnt be very accurate as to the server status.
The reason being is that when our server crashes it doesnt actually crash, it just hangs up.
It appears online but players cant get in, or mobs stop spawning, etc.
Its very annoying and its supposed to be being fixed, however I havent heard anything from aaron in quite a while :S
Will message him today with a nice poke in the eye.
