NationStates Jolt Archive

The site says it (my computer) doesn't accept Cookies (when it does) and now Prussiatopia is The 0 of 0, what the hell happened?

http://www.nationstates.net/rensen

please fix this

My nation just turned to "0 of 0" again. :p

The hard drive probably just crashed again.

Thank god I'm not the only one...

So, let's wait for them to fix it and have a little theme party... something like "0 of 0 Brain Cells left" *get the vodka out of the fridge* ;)

I'm the O of O as well, bit confusing really, because if I had the choice, I'd be 1 of 3,567,234 at the very least :)

Thank god I'm not the only one...
It's most likely NS-wide.

Sup. I am the nation 0 of 0.

You think they would have seen it coming for the second time ...

Yep, it's happened again. To me (http://www.nationstates.net/Starblaydia), too.

Don't log into your nations, people reading this :)

Then read this (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/0_of_0) from the wiki. It explains all about the 0 of 0.

You think they would have seen it coming for the second time ...
Correction: third. :D

Anyway, it's really nothing to worry about. Now we just have to wait for the admins to restore a backup.

yeah, it's happened a couple times in the past. the mods usually end up reverting all nations to the night before.

Okay, so like last time...

Don't log into your nations!

at least i'm guessing :p

Wow, I've been here since -JULY- and have never seen that.

I don't know if that actually makes any difference.

PANIC

Is what they said last time this happened...

and Sal then put up a day old back up or so

If this is like the previous two times, there's no real reason to panic.

Anyway, let's keep this in one thread, please:

Yes, but it probably just generates more panic, especially in those that have logged into their nations. I logged in the previous and this time and Wingarde was restored just fine. Probably just the very newest nations (i.e. hours old) won't be recovered.

I came 2 NationStates 2day and found it. I thought like someione hacked in 2 my account or somthing. So when will it be fixed?

My nation also turned into the 0 of 0.
The crash is also affecting the featured region thing.

a warning not to log into your nations causing panic? doubt it..

anyways, have a look if you haven't yet:

http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/0_of_0

I've got the same problem. What the hell is wrong?

Oh not again...I know that my nation will probably be safely restored like last time around, but it's just plain and simply, ANNOYING.

So when will it be fixed?
When the admins get online and down to it. :rolleyes:

It will require one of the admins to wake up (they're in various timezones) and restore from back-up after deleting some old junk that clogs up the server. Of course, if they used a proper database this kind of thing wouldn't happen (that is, the data wouldn't become corrupted when the server ran out of space).

So does this mean my nation is gone and I have to create it again?

I am not really comp literat so I am not smart in these areas.

Concur. I got the fright of my life. I thought I was DEATed or something :S

i'm guessing it will be fine

I think this problem is a result of the NationDates joke...

http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/0_of_0

About how long did it take the last two times before the mods got everything back up and running?

BTW, I would much rather look at 7 of 9 instead of 0 of 0. Maybe someone could add that into the code so next time we atleast have something better to look at. :D

"We are the Borg. Lower your shields and surrender your nations. We will add your biological and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile." :D

SalusaSecondus also produced a news item announcing that the code would be changed to prevent similar problems occurring in the future.
Maybe this is an all-new error.

I... am sad... I also thought my nation had been haxxored... and... when I tried to fill out the form to e-mail me my password, it told me there was no e-mail in the database... :(

This looks, as Crazy Girl and others have mentioned, like a diskspace failure. Relax. When our admins wake up, we'll get everything straightened out.

Let's keep this in one thread, please:

Relax, sit back, and read the sticky. ;)

I think everything will be okay once Sal wakes up. Have faith :p

This code is different from last time, so it looks like they have changed the code since the last error - it just didn't stop it happening again:

i have made the mistake of logging in does this mean when you sort out the problem that i lose my nation or will it come back.:eek:

Maybe Sal just underestimated all you addicts :D

That's this thread. I think you meant to post this in the other threads.

Edit: Ah, it seems a mod has merged the threads. Ignore my comments above.

If it is what I think it is it should come back

HEY April Fools has Pasted! :)

Great! I remember this happening before, and they had to use a back up.

I hope they will let us know if we must let them know which nations were lost.

Thank GOD that isn't just me!!!

That's this thread. I think you meant to post this in the other threads.

Really NICE!

I think this problem is a result of the NationDates joke...
could be. The nationdates joke required the code to be changed a lot.

Yeah, I realised that and edited my post, but you must have clicked 'reply' before I did that. Busy forums can be as confusing as IRC.

could be. The nationdates joke required the code to be changed a lot.
But all Salusa would have needed to do is replace the NationDates code with the NationStates code used immediately before it - which is presumably what he did, as NationStates was working as normal this morning.

My nation is Alexein in the region of Somathrace. I started the region and it still exists but my nation has become the "0 of 0". I can't even log into it and I've had my nation for years. Any clue on what happened.

It's a bug, read the sticky

Nationdates's last gasp?

On second though, there could be a link - all the extra data from the NationDates Survery could have made the server almost run out of disk space, and then a few extra nations this morning could have pushed it over the edge.

Maybe we should start a sweepstakes on how many threads will be created before the problem is fixed. I bagsy 14.

Right now, all around the world, people's hearts are sinking as they begin to freak out and wonder why they have been deleted. Give's you a sense of community, doesn't it?

Well that's what happened to me... "Oh no, the mods have found out about my enormous international conspiracy! All is lost!"

Maybe we should keep this sticky for just relevant information

Sorry - when I posted that it was still in another thread...

Damn you NATIONDATES! DAMN YOU!

Heheh, I logged on. Twice.
I like to live dangerously.

Any word on whether the Delegacy things will stay the same?

First of all thanks to everyone who has posted for letting peeps know about the problem and the causes. i thought i'd been killed off and couldn't figure out why. i tried logging in several times cos it said i was using the wrong password and then it timed me out for 45 mins. i'm relieved because if we do go back a day my nation has been around for almost a month and so would survive the back date. NS Mods will fix this so lets just all be patient and try and get the word out to other NSers who have not logged in yet and stop the panic.

ALSO I think it's more than a little rude to tell the Mods how to do their job or criticize NS for crashing. Let's all remember this is a FREE Game and takes a lot of volunteer time to provide NS to all of us. Technical Shit happens. Let's not be ungrateful for this wonderful game or the people that bring it to us.

yes, it could do with the survay.

At the time of writing, logging into your nation will set your national variables to null values, breaking it. Your nation will subsequently display a long error message. Please do not log into any of your nations at this time.

Dsboy, one of the most sensible posts in this thread so far :D

Yes, warn your NS friends where you can not to log in, have patience for Sal to wake up, it's weekend for him too ;)

I just went to nationstates and clicked on my nation and I got 0 of 0! I didn't even log on! I just went to the site! Please fix my nation!

the same thing happened too me when i logged out and tryed loging back in it said that my password was incorrect
