Re: Shard Reboots

Nice in theory, but such things aren't always predictable.

Like your home computer, which sometimes takes a 2 minutes to boot and other times seems to drag on forever, so it is with servers.
If they're installing patches or upgrades (not just for the Ryzom software but OS stuff) it's even harder to estimate.

And there's always people who'd complain if the reboot took longer than announced, some might even make fools of themselves and write bad reviews about "the Ryzom devs lied when they said the reboot would take 15 minutes but it took 20!".
