<b>Asheron's Call is Officially Dead Jan 31, 2017:-(</b> [https://www.asheronscall.com/en/forums/showthread.php?73423-Asheron-s-Call link]<br>
It is with a heavy heart that we must announce the end of our support for Asheron's Call and Asheron’s Call 2, and will close both services on January 31st, 2017.

This decision did not come easy, and we know this is disappointing for many of you. This game is a labor of love, and it's not easy for us to bring it to an end.
<br>Due to the Leafcull server crashing at approximately 10pm EST and later being brought down for fixes at 10:30pm, the night events for all servers were canceled and will be rescheduled for another time soon.

We have had a phenomenally long run; one of the longest in the world of MMORPGs, and that in and of itself is a spectacular feat. We are proud of our legacy, and the entire Asheron's Call team has been honored to adventure with you for nearly twenty years. We thank you very much for being a part of it.

<b>10th Anniversary Patch Page Live</b>
<b>Upcoming Web Site Data Center Migration - Monday, March 14th</b> [https://www.asheronscall.com/en/forums/showthread.php?65588-Upcoming-Web-Site-Data-Center-Migration-Monday-March-14th link]<br>
<br>The October Patch Page, [[Gears of Change]], is now available. The event is scheduled to go live on October 27th, 2009.
We are in the process of preparing to move Asheronscall.com to our new data center. What this means for you is that sometime around 9:00 AM Eastern (-5 GMT) on Monday, March 14th we will temporarily close the AC forums to posting, so that we can copy the data over to the new data center, do some checks on it, and then reopen the forums to posting. It's possible the web site may be unavailable for a while as this work is being done.


--[[User:An Adventurer|An Adventurer]] 19:57, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
When the web site is reopened, you should simply see the ability to post in the forums, and that's that. However, some Internet Service Providers may take some time for the new DNS information to propagate, so if you run into an issue, you can clear your browser cache, or, if you are technically savvy enough to want to do it, open up a command prompt on your computer and type ipconfig /dnsflush. This would be something you could choose to do after we reopen the web site on Monday. Eventually, all ISPs will have updated their DNS information, so regardless of whether you take these steps, things should "just work".


We'll keep you updated.
