Dear Users,

We are currently debugging a new database system which will allow for a smoother and faster Gaia in the future.

During this time, we are experiencing connection errors associated with the install of the new system.

These problems are not caused by the introduction of the friendslist or the guild system, nor have the introduction of these features delayed the fixes on the database system.

Please be assured that we are working as fast and as hard as possible to remedy these problems in a timely fashion.

As a full fix date cannot be pinpointed until we determine the exact nature of the problems, we will let you know as soon as the problems are fixed in the announcements.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. 3nodding
