We'd like to apologise for MaraPets being offline for around 10 hours yesterday. As soon as it was bed time for us in the UK, the server company sent an email about a fault with their power supply. They had engineers working on the issue and they fixed it within 30 minutes. The problem for us is that MaraPets is very complex and is open 24 hours a day, only ever closed when we plan Maintenance and for the power to be switched off suddenly while over 800 players are playing and hundreds more 'guests' are browsing can cause issues.

Even though the servers were back online within 30 minutes, we were not happy with the way they came back online and through 16 years of experience dealing with every kind of problem imaginable here, we were not taking any chances! We stayed up through the night to reinstall five of the VMs (virtual machines) where the operating system was not performing the best or would only start in recovery mode and ran tests on all of the disks to make sure there we no issues. This obviously takes time and we opened as soon as we could, bringing back the most important parts of the site first. Without doing this, we could've opened sooner but if there were any problems, they'd still be there but could cause more serious problems later. We're back now and everything is up and running as normal.

Doyle, Equilor, Kaala, Quell and Zola can now wear the Devil Costume, which is currently part of the most recent Account Upgrades set.

All Devil pets will receive FREE TRAINING at the Gym and Elite Gym and FREE LESSONS at the School and University until October 1st.
