does P still purge

[kotraquin]

I recall it was like every wednesday from 6am-6:30am  PST or something like that and what do they purge? if anyone knows.

I don't know that the weekly shutdown is to purge anything. I always thought it was for maintenance and update of the website. Although I'm sure at some point they must purge their data.

I agree with darkearthgoddess. I should have mentioned there are 2 kinds of shutdowns by pogo. The usual one is for about an hour. I believe that is for what darkearthgoddess has already mentioned. Periodically they close down the site for approx 8 hours. This happens approx once a month I believe. I would think the purging is taking place during the longer shutdown as opposed to the shorter one. I guess we'll never know for sure unless one of the spies would care to chime in on the subject.

How about spies? Any comments?

well i'm pretty sure thats it i mean wouldnt you wanna fix some bugs in a game that nobody can play

[kotraquin]

I'm not aware any bugs for the nonmembers games

[Homer]

You probably wouldn't know about any issues unless you work for pogo or happened to be in a room that had issues. Things like the game freezing, lagging chat and probably much more.

[kotraquin]

oh didn't think of it that way

[KittyKat]

[Homer]
