Saves should be like every 7 minutes not so hopefully it wont crash too much. I finish at 3:30 so I'll check it when I get home.

Think I figured out the possible culpit. It's a runuo feature that I turned on without testing, and yeah bad.

It sends emails when there is a server crash, but the email sending script is bugged, and causes a crash. Kinda funny actually.

lol so what you're saying is the server crashed by activating an email feature that tells you when the server crashes? That's some kind of irony.

Maybe too many people paged asking for an event or items so the queue said "Screw this, I'm crashing" j/k

. Maybe it has something to do with the password changing system.

Haha yeah something weird like that, I'll have to check and try to reproduce it. Aparantly it did not like the email address I specified. that or its something stupid like it could not connect to the server, so it crashed. I noticed C#/Runuo is bad for that, will crash for the dumbest things.

Did you add it into try catch blocks? That might keep it from crashing if an exception is thrown (Like if it can't connect).

Was caused by the email function. Something I saw was like "hey thats cool, I'll turn it on" which turns out its buggy.

so I'll go back and turn it off, and stuff.
