Will keep you updated when I know more.

The current affected IP Range/Subnet is : 93.158.236.0/24
Please be aware that this was a world wide issue caused by SKAT POPOVO Ltd. and not a host specific issue. However we are sending this notification as we can imagine you noticed issues in general on the service today at the affected subnet without knowing what is going on.
We have notified their transit carriers / RIPE and also SKAT POPOVO in order to get this solved as soon as possible. (We are working non-stop on this matter, until this company stop announcing the affected IP Range/Subnet).

The reason for this is because the server has been disconnecting randomly lately, maybe this will fix it.
Host is looking at some network problems, may DC every now and then in the upcoming hour.
We're getting a new server at the same host to see if that will resolve the random disconnections.
This will be done Monday morning, exact time will be posted later.
Server will go offline soon for the move. Expected downtime will be 1 to 1.5 hours.
Currently waiting on the host to move a couple of things. After that the server will go back online.
Server will be back stable in 1-2 hours.
Server is having issues today. Host is taking a look right now.
We are investigating an issue.
I deleted all clan emblems off of the server.
(Remember that emblems are saved locally inside mydocuments/fgunz/emblem,
so you will still see all saved emblems until you delete that folder)
Emblem upload is currently disabled.
Maintenance on Wednesday:

Our host's network is currently having a scheduled maintenance.
We are aware of the downtimes (network attacks) that have been going on today,
and we tried our best to solve them as quickly as possible.
The server should be fine now, however, we might take more precautions soon to prevent such downtimes in the future.
other good news: big summer update soon!
Quick update:
The server is online at the moment, but it's not working fine yet.
We'll try to fix it as soon as possible, and have another planned maintenance (to further increase stability) for tomorrow or after tomorrow.
Until then, it is not completely stable. But we (and our host) are working on it.
Planned maintenance for today. The server will be offline for a couple of hours while we work on it.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Server is online.
We're still working on it, but it's online for now.
Quick update:
We are aware of the AE bug. And we are working on the fix.
Server down for maintenance.
Sorry, but this is taking longer than expected.
And the server is back online and stable. :)
The most recent Windows 10 update (version 1607) will break FGunZ ("Hack Attempt Detected").
We are aware of this and this will also be fixed in the next update which will be out soon.
Some maintenance will be done to fgunz.net tonight in EST timezone. The site will be completely inaccessible for roughly 1-2 hours.
Server is down, but should not be down for much longer:

And back online.

Thank Dave.
Hi there,
a small update has been applied today to fix a widely known issue related to the Anti-Hack which would crash your client at character selection.
Server is online!
Server crash should be fixed.
P.S. If your game crashes, remember to upload / send me your gunz.dmp (you can find it in your fgunz folder).
Server is back online.
I have applied a small patch which should:
- Fix the server crashes
- Fix the relaymap glitch which players abused to play blocked maps in Turbo/Team Turbo/CTF
Now that most of you have more time at the moment and there's more going on for you ingame, we have increased the Twitch stream time to 2 hours again, so you can stream for 2 hours and get 50 coins per day. Enjoy!
As several people asked for it, you can now see the hours you played today at your fgunz.net dashboard after logging in:
https://i.imgur.com/NMwSUKQ.png
This might especially be useful to track your playtime for activity rewards.
Keep in mind that you must first logout ingame for this number to update correctly.
The modify banner popup on the page where you can view your character now has a button to reset it so it will show the default banner.
https://i.imgur.com/Z0HEBgB.png
Fixed on the website:
- The clan lineup feature.
- The notifications will no longer show "x ago" but the entire timestamp in CET time.
Fixed on the website:
- The timestamp on multiple locations will no longer show "x ago" but the entire timestamp in CET time.
- Fixed an issue where the clan page would not show up.
- Fixed a double avatar issue in sub-comments on the character and clan pages.
Lots of network disruptions and outages today all over the world, mostly in Europe though. We nor our host have control of that. Since our host in located in Europe, this affects us the most.
Here you can see it:
6:20 PM (first D/C):
https://app.fing.com/internet/outage...-27-1625-00000
7:20 PM (second D/C):

Also affecting people in the U.K.:

Users reporting problems in NL:
https://allestoringen.nl/storing/ziggo/
General outage news:
https://app.fing.com/internet/outages
Please stand by as this rare issue should soon be resolved (once the large major companies fix it).
Email changing and password recovery (email sending) was broken for a little while at fgunz.net. This has been resolved.
Updated Launcher to use HTTPS/SSL for file transfer, this should fix some of your launcher issues.
Because we have a lot of people with multiple accounts and Lvl 1 characters (never used, just to take names), we have decided to update the delete old character function at https://fgunz.net/account/characters:
If the character is Lvl 1-5: the last character use must be more than 14 days ago
If the character is Lvl 6-30: the last character use must be more than 30 days ago
If the character is Lvl 31-60: the last character use must be more than 60 days ago
If the character is Lvl 61-98: the last character use must be more than 120 days ago
Level 99 characters cannot be deleted
Terms
- Last login of the account of the character must be more than 14 days ago.
- Characters with colors or donation items can not be deleted.
- Characters in a clan can not be deleted in case they have contribution points.
- You can request a deletion once per day.
- Do not abuse this function. All actions are logged.
55 users lost activity points last night because of the server crash. We fixed that and also fixed the playtime of all users so you don't lose any AP because of the crash.
Something is wrong with the activity points today, the script wasn't executed. We will check it and fix it to make sure it doesn't happen again. Don't worry, you will not lose your AP.
Our host is doing some modifications and running some tests tonight, so maybe some of you cannot see servers, get the message "cannot access server" or experience Agent Errors while playing. Don't worry you will not lose AP today and everything should be back normal by tomorrow.
Due to abuse of the "delete old character" feature, the waiting period between deletions has been increased from a day to a month. Realistically, no one would have to use it every day unless you are reserving names for no reason other than having control over these names.
The phone donation method has been removed because of the high fees associated with it and the constant removal of available countries that can use this method. You can still donate with PayPal and Bitcoins.
Small website change
The fgunz.net character page now shows the exact XP when you hover over it:
https://i.imgur.com/k8uTjv3.gif
We've added a "Activity Recovery" item which you can purchase on the itemshop at https://fgunz.net/recoverap.
For 100 coins, this will allow you to set your activity points back to what they were before they were reset to 0. You can only use it when you currently have 0 activity points and previously had more than 0 activity points achieved.
One good example to use it is when you go on a vacation for a few days. Once you come back you can purchase the recovery and your activity points will be set back to what it was before you left.
A few changes have been made to the website:
- The "My Characters" page will now indicate under the character name if privacy mode is toggled for the character.
- Added a button to reset your account avatar on the "My Account" page.
- The streamer badge on the page where you can view a specific character will now also show the Twitch ID of the user.
Currently there are some disconnection issues going on, the host has been informed about it for closer investigation. Any updates will be posted here.
Update: seems more stable now.
Host is going to test some changes so some of our users don't have to use a VPN anymore to play, disconnections might happen.
In response to this: things seem much more stable now.
If you are getting 0 ping to everyone or seeing TCP socket error 10060 then it means that your traffic from your PC to FGunZ is modified by either your internet service provider, an anti-virus or firewall. In this case you are still required to use a VPN to play properly.
Some users might still be unable to login into the server or face issues where they can login but after that they cannot select a character. Host has been informed and it will be looked into as soon as possible.
Note that all of this is happening due to an experimental feature that the FGunZ network is using right now and it still has to be fine-tuned in order for everything to work properly to all users.
Server might be a bit laggy and slow at the moment, host has been informed. Nothing we can do about it right this moment.
Update: things seem more stable now.
There are some network issues right now, usually these issues don't last very long but we're aware of it.
Our host has announced a minor server maintenance in ~ 2 hours (2 AM CET).
Host is having some issues - we are aware of it and informed the host. No one will lose their activity points (if you do, just message me).
And once again the host is having some issues - we are aware of it and informed the host. No one will lose their activity points (if you do, just message me).
The network issues are still ongoing. I will provide an update here once the host has found and fixed the issue.
Upcoming Scheduled Maintenance from our host:
We'll be performing a network core maintenance, between 2021-03-30 ~ 2021-03-31, the maintenance window will begin at 22:00 CET 2021-03-30 and will be finished by 04:00 CET 2021-03-31.
During this time, it is expected: Unavailability of services, lag, delay or packet losses.
This is a necessary step to improve the servers.
Our host had a major power fault (short-circuit) affecting all servers, which is why the FGunZ server was offline.
However, we'll use the time to push an update and the server will be back online in a few minutes.
The item purchase history window at fgunz.net now has a checkbox to exclude boxes from the results.
The host is currently looking into the network issue that causes disconnections and packet loss (lagg).
The host is currently doing maintenance. During this maintenance, the server may have lag or disconnection issues.
It can take a few hours, but we don't expect the server to be down the entire time.
There's an optical fiber cut near our server, causing partial network unavailability. Some of you are unable to access the FGunZ server while it gets fixed.
Edit: Should be fixed now. Let us know if you still have issues.
Server has been crashing a lot today. We temporarily disabled the elo code to see if that caused the crashes. We will also release an update very soon to fix that and other issues.
Characters with private profiles are now excluded from the ranking on fgunz.net (https://fgunz.net/ranking/individual) and discord (!elo / !xp), this is so the top 25 isn't crowded with private profiles. Players can now choose whether or not they want to show up at the ranking by setting their character profile to private or public.
You can now reset your elo via the website by clicking the 'Reset Elo' button beneath your character at https://fgunz.net/account/characters.
You can now also promote members to 'clan co-leader' on the website:
https://puu.sh/J9yXk/ace723cca5.png
The cosmetic box page now has a checkbox to only win items you have not won before. Note that this is based on your unredeemed boxes, redeemed boxes, recycled boxes (from this point on) and boxes you originally won and gifted to others.
Once you have won all possible items, you will receive an error and are required to uncheck the checkbox.
https://i.imgur.com/i3RrAtl.png
In addition to the checkbox to win unique prizes only, you can now also select if you want male, female or both genders. This way if you only play on a female character you don't have to deal with male related items.
You can now see the elo on character pages (e.g. https://fgunz.net/character/view/McSic).
https://i.imgur.com/E1e7wAt.png
Elo Ranking on home page now also shows the elo.
https://i.imgur.com/0qXp3tq.png
The redeem button on lucky box / cosmetic box is now green.
https://i.imgur.com/6QHIokz.png
I've made some changes to the lucky box item information page (the [ ? ] button) so it's shorter in height. You can now also hover over the images to see a larger preview of the item (if a larger preview exists):
https://puu.sh/JsR7r/0d272d21e8.gif
Some changes to the weekly competition:
- Characters must have privacy mode turned off to participate
- Characters who already joined the competition and have privacy mode turned on will be excluded
- Elo ranking category has been added
- Most CW games played category has been removed as it was usually identical to most contribution points
- #1 clan points category has been removed as it is not an individual accomplishment, but clan based and we have other clan rewards, as per https://freestylersworld.com/showthread.php?115352
The lucky box and cosmetic box animations on fgunz.net have been reworked to be smoother and more accurate.
Lucky box inventory design has been overhauled and there's now a green colored box for 20 day items:
https://puu.sh/JOdot/dfe0b2b91e.png
The box opening design has also been updated:
https://puu.sh/JOdW7/40eeaa929d.png
Some changes to our Weekly Competition (https://fgunz.net/ranking/weekly):
- All characters that currently have privacy mode enabled have been removed from the weekly competition.
- When you enable privacy mode for any of your characters, that character will automatically be removed from weekly competition.
- To re-participate in weekly competition, you will have to 1) disable privacy mode and 2) re-join the competition.
- After disabling privacy mode for a character, that character will not be able to join weekly competition for 2 weeks.
Some website / weekly competition changes:
- Weekly Competition 'Most Level Ups' category has been replaced by 'Most EXP Gained'
- This means that you no longer have to reset your level to win that category, as you keep earning EXP after reaching Lvl 99
- Furthermore the 'Reset Lvl 99' button (which yields no coins) has been removed, as users kept confusing it with the 'Rebirth Character' button (which yields 100 coins)
- 'Rebirth Character' button has been renamed to 'Rebirth Lvl 99'
The account homepage at fgunz.net will now tell you when the activity point/reward will be sent out (granted you meet the requirements for the activity point).
https://i.imgur.com/as4ZrU6.png
In case you ever change your Twitch ID, you can now update it yourself at https://fgunz.net/account/home
https://puu.sh/JWjtH/f1dadff3f4.png
Daily elo decay (once every 24 hours) for inactive accounts has been increased to 1.5%.
Furthermore inactive characters (characters that have barely gained or lost elo) are now also affected by elo decay.
