Authentication server and official forums down [UPDATED x10]

Filed under: Realm News, Realm Status

As of 4 PM EST (World of warcraft Insider's timezone), it seems that the authentication servers are down for the count. It's very likely this is related to the midday rolling restarts they were planning for many realms, but we don't know for sure at this point. Along with the login servers, the official forums are down as well. That's pretty expected, as the two generally go hand in hand.

How long will these two stay down? We don't really know, but hopefully it won't be terrible long. We're coming dangerously close to primetime, so I suspect that things might get worse before they get better if the authentication server doesn't come up within the next hour or so. Hopefully it will be solved much more quickly, though.

Keep an eye on this spot, and we'll let you know if we learn anymore. All updates will be behind the cut below.
