Fast and Reliable

Fast and Reliable. For a free host it really does tick every single box. Fast queue system, fast file uploading, and overall a pleasant experience.

Terminate is the wrong word here. The server is returned to the database if no one logs in for over 10 minuets. There is no data loss & this is 5x more time than other free platforms.

Unable to join no matter what

I set up a server yesterday to be ready, however I go to join and now the server doesn't work. It starts but is unjoinable. It worked yesterday. I assume your damned limbo system is what's causing this problem, causing us to have missing major files.
