One of our avatar servers (avman8) is experiencing difficulties wherein it crashes, restarts, and then crashes again.
Engineering is looking into this issue. This issue may cause difficulties with logging in, access to items, and also may cause problems with auctions as this is the primary auctions server.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may be causing.
