Using Vendor Search prompts to LOOSE CONNECTION ?

Is anyone else having this odd occurance ?

I log into the game, and apparently have no particular issues YET, if I press the Vendor Search "SEARCH" button to launch a Vendor Search Query, immediately I get the "LOST CONNECTION" Gump.

Since this is quite odd, and never has happened to me before, I tried it multiple times and this occurs each and every time that I press the Vendor Search "search" button to launch a search query....

Anyone having this happening to them ?

No and I've used VS multiple times between cats and Atlantic in last 6 hours 

This is then even weirder....

Why would it be happening to me only, then ?

OK, need to make a clarification...

This is happening to my account when launching a Vendor Search on some Asian servers.... now I tried launching a Vendor Search on the Atlantic server and it did not close my connection there.

But it does it on some Asian servers.

I currently lack the time to double check this on all servers but, so far, it has been happening to me on at least 2 Asian Servers....

"I am experiencing this on all shards (that I wanted to search on, Atlantic included), all clients, all accounts"

Happened on every Asian server I checked. as soon as you enter your criteria and press "Search" it immedietly quits responding and then if you move you get the "network error" and drop. @Kyronix not sure if it's anything y'all can fix, but something to check. 


**EDIT** I was bored and tried every Asian Server, they all did it. currently trying all Non North Murican shards.

**EDIT 2** Does it on Europa and Drachenfels. but not Oceania. Checking the rest.

**EDIT 3** Shards that work - Baja, Lake Austin, Lake Superior, Napa, Origin, Pacific, Oceania
                  Shards Not Working - Catskills, Atlantic, Chesapeake, Great Lakes, Legends, Siege, All                            Asian shards,  Europa, and Drachenfels.  So it seems anything to the west works.

Server maintenance. Asian and European shards have gone through it, as have East coast now. It's only 7.26am currently in Dev-land. There may be a delay before it gets fixed.

Same issue here- all shards connection fine till vs used

Could this be connected to the asian shards being on a different patch or whatever reason i couldn't transfer to them

The Asian shards got hit first because they got today's server restart last night. (makes sense, I know) then the east coast shards got it, now the Western servers are getting it. but it appears they took the VS warehouse down about 30 minutes ago, so maybe they're working on it already. 

The Mythic account Management site is down right now for Maintenance. likely something to do with it.

COMMUNICATION....

This isn't hard folks 
"We had an issue with VS while updating the Asian shards we will resolve asap" 
See no drama no issues just basic communication...
Stop setting the bar so low because they seem more than willing to live down to the low standards you've set..

You just did it. Why do we need them to stop working on it and post on the UO page that is down?


When was the last time they started a thread here about an issue like this?

They don't come to this toxic place. It seems keeping them away is your goal.

I'd be willing to bet less then 10% of the player base comes here

So you will stop the communication requests since they do not communicate here?

Or keep doing it after accepting the facts.

They should be required to post it on UO.COM

What he said 

"whatever the issue, i'm sure Pawain can somehow blame user error"

😂

Sure wish they would give an update  Over 12 hours @Mesanna @Kyronix @Bleak @Misk

An explanation of why this is what the 3rd month in a row ????

Vendor search has crashed the game 3 previous times?  Show a link.  You are a fountain of misinformation.

Nope. Sounds legit, especially since they took VS down in a short time.

The account management page uo.com forum etc have yes indeed gone down or had issues at the beginning of yep the last three months but  let's clarify your stance here.
This is Mesannas game she decides what we get when we get it and how we get it in total control of everything UNLESS something doesn't work correctly then it's entirely on the user/players to find fix or work around??

This is the vendor search thread.  You need to whine and complain  about other things in the proper thread.

This is the first time I have ever heard of VS crashing your game when opened. I asked you for a link showing this has happened 3 other times, but you can not.  But that does not stop you from spouting lies.

It was slow recently, but since fewer players are using it to build Luck suits it has been working fine. And it will be working fine again as soon as they find the current issue.

But according to your misinformation, nobody associated with UO does anything so, VS will never work again if we are to believe what you say over and over.

How is it UOs fault that Account Management goes down when it is owned by EA NOT BS.  I am billed every 6 months by EA not BS

And how the hell do you know that she did not.  You have ZERO proof that she did not call EA alls you want to do is put down everything UO related.  Why arn't you on the VS thread ranting and raving about VS.  No you choose to rant and rave about Acc Man on the VS thread.  Oh wait Acc Man is up so you can't piss and moan over there so you come here to piss and moan.

@Mesanna @Mesanna1 @Kyronix @Bleak @Misk @Mariah Anyone in the universe can we at least get an update, anything.

Can we put the pitchforks away please? The problems are known, that's why the database has been taken down. Researching and fixing a problem often takes considerably longer than finding out a problem exists. Patience is a virtue sadly missing from not only UO, but also these boards.

It's easier to be patient when we know they are working on it.

You are very wrong to assume that 'does not post' also means 'does not read'. Also, do you really think Kyronix reads and posts without ever talking about what's being said on the forums with the rest of the team?

Please don't back sass your employers. WE PAY FOR THE GAME! that makes us your employers, so that being said, you can have an extra ten minute break at smoke time.

Sorry to say but it is not the problem it is the silence from @Mesanna to take 5 minutes to post something/anything on UO.COM to let UOs customers know what is up.  This is well over 24 hours and the silence is deafening.

VS is back, problem solved.  TYVM UO Team for fixing this.  @Mariah fixed, time to close thread.

done
