....Worse things have happened..... Like, what if you had a sector overloaded with planets cause you were transfering colos or products and the server drops shortly before exturn. Or what if you had just photoned your way into someones base and the server drops. And why does the sysop sometimes not know about these things for days at a time because he/she doesn't maintain the server daily, and is never on ICQ, AIM, etc so that you can let them know about the problem. Why does a sysop run a server if he/she doesn't have the time to maintain it.
I could go on and on...LOL........
