The server experienced a hiccup (~hour ago?) and after logging back in all NPCs have vanished (though they still appear in the sensor log).

I have also heard reports of people not being able to log in on certain characters (frozen sectors presumably).

got booted on one character jumping to Metana N-6, now the client crashes trying to relog that character. All Dynamic missions, like convoys, HS, BP, BS, etc are gone. Training sectors are without turrets nor cap ships.

Oh, and earlier today Odia C-6 was fully crashed (infinite load-screen), and several HS in Odia Rhamus and Metana had no bots (casualty counter didn't show, NPC's loitering about with nothing to do... utter mayhem!)

Wow, the server doesn't like VO players in storms. This is what storms should do more often :P

I haven't been able to log on for about 30 minutes. I was in Rhamus x12, don't remember the letter but station there. Got kicked out three time tonight just flying around. big trouble somewhere.

Also about a dozen HS missions that had been present suddenly vanished about the time of the hiccup tonight. Just before Inc' started talking about it on 100
