    As you may have noticed, this update breaks all our servers. They're now in a state of a perpetual booting sequence which I can do nothing about, sorry about that.
    Things may resolve themselves later tonight when Valve releases a hotfix. If they release a hotfix.

    I made a unban appael -> http://forums.f-o-g.eu/threads/3807-ban-appeal-real-slugger/page3#post41177 <- and Downy closed it, and n0:name didn`t say anything so I thought he is unbanned me without accepting the appael. So I just see that, the servers are glitched and I got unbanned. And I can play again on mario kart, finally. I really love it and I hope I can stay there again.

    Well, can you tell me what is the reason you guys so mad @ me? What did I do? I just joined a group, and I don't even do anything in it.I never insulted Fortress of Gamers, I did not made the group.. Also, I saw there was like 2 guy in it, and they got unban..?? It was my first ban, and I say sorry for joining, but I never did any bad. Why I don`t have second chance?

    If you could read.
    There still has to come a verdict on your ban appeal.

    Also, update about the server status.
    All admin or VIP powers are disabled on all servers. Both the 176.9.0.44 and the 176.57.141.141 won't work.

    Update.
    For now are all the servers back up.
    Admin and Vip is working as well
    Deathrun is the only server where neither admin nor VIP is working.
