Yes, this is really hard to do:

You could prevent cache of the index page by putting the following into a placeholder named "head":

<meta>


This will force everyone to download the index page each time they visit the page.


Or you know... you could check the news every few days, I think they updated it over a day ago that they were opening it up 4 hours early.

I've been coding website since the 8th grade and I've never heard of a site owner having an auto refresh to their site to refresh whenever an update was made. If you can't be bothered to his F5, Ctrl+R or the refresh button for your browser then you sir are the one to blame. Anyways, people were storming the servers anyways so there were Gateway issues, you'd still be sitting here complaining about 502 Bad Gateway errors.
Are you in 9th Grade now? Check above.

I saw your meta tag but it isn't common with most websites, and I'm out of High School and plan on majoring in Web Development :3

As I said, I see no reason to have to check a website every single day to see if there has been a major scheduling change. I have things to do that don't concern Tera. They should have sent me an email notice for something like this. This is what I'm paying them for. It's called "service".

Yes, it's not common enough, apparently, but wouldn't you agree that it is very possible? It should be done if it's a page that isn't expected to be frequently changed. No, you wouldn't want to do it on every page, because that kinda defeats the purpose of caching, but on important pages that shouldn't change often, it is critical.

I'm tired of this discussion.

I actually ordered the game yesterday and the schedule i looked at showed the game to launch at 12 noon PST today. So i was a little late as well. But none of that matter because the main problem is that each time i get kicked i have to wait an hour and a half to log back in (if the que doesn't kick me out at the 20 minute mark like it has twice)

no-cache, still requires you to visit the page like you said, which is still the same as F5 (refresh) but cache still exist though information should be changed if anything been changed. Best way to solve this is a simple PHP/Ajax which will refresh the page with whatever the web developer set it to.

It would be nice but it isn't needed :P
If you have a guild site I'm sure any members, or officers could've made a thread or an update to keep people in the know who don't frequent the games official site.

I did it for anyone who doesn't know how to use the site (which a lot of forum goers don't know how to do) to make sure they know what time the servers are open and on what day.

Prime example of why the U.S. has a bad rap...Lazy and you want to have special treatment, felt its owed you to because you paid just like the rest of us? LOL you want in on launch its up to you to stay up to date on the information posted almost hourly on thier site thats open to the public to see. Man up take the blame for making a mistake and stop blameing others.

Te5la, why don't you apply for a job if you're so amazing at scripting games. In-fact, why don't you create one, or endorse a Korean game and see if you can keep -everyone- happy.
