<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.


<b>Increased Quest XP Holiday Weekend! 11/25 - 11/30</b> - [http://forums.ac.turbine.com/showthread.php?t=44028 Link]
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>Frelorn just announced this over on the official forums:


<blockquote>''On Wednesday November 25th we will be increasing the amount of XP earned on all quests by 50% until Monday November 30th.<br>
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.


''Since we had done many increased XP weekends in the past, we thought having some incentive for the questers would be a nice change. We will of course still be having straight up increased XP weekends in the future.<br>
It’s been an amazing run. You’ve done Asheron Realaidain proud.


''Have fun!<br>
Between now and January 31st, 2017, the game will remain available to play, completely free, for any player currently with an account. New account creation will be disabled.

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:Tlosk/Sig}} 01:26, November 10, 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.
