Descriptive Problem Summary:
Well, I try logging in to the BYOND Pager with my main account ( this one ) and it just says I'm offline. I'm here waiting for 5-10 minutes and still, offline. I pressed Ctrl+P and reviewed all my settings, pager was available and such. So I thought, try with my alt. Still the same problem. I tried downgrading to BYOND 496 and still the same problem. I even reinstalled BYOND 2-3 times.
Numbered Steps to Reproduce Problem:
1. Start up BYOND.
2. Login with your desired account.
3. You will be at the main page but will not be online, you'll be " offline ", no favs, no friends etc.
Code Snippet (if applicable) to Reproduce Problem:


Expected Results:
You're supposed to be logged in and get on with what you're supposed to be doing ( playing games and such )
Actual Results:
I'm just stuck offline.
Does the problem occur:
Every time? Or how often?
Everytime
In other games?
In other user accounts?
Yes
On other computers?
Yes

When does the problem NOT occur?

Did the problem NOT occur in any earlier versions? If so, what was the last version that worked? (Visit http://www.byond.com/download/build to download old versions for testing.)

Workarounds:

P.S: People have also said they are experiencing the same problem.
Same problem here, except for the fact that it works fine on other computers, and that I cannot connect to anything, I just get a "BYOND central not accessible" or "Connection closed".

Even when I put in a wrong password, it sticks with the "Validating key..." thing, and doesn't said "invalid login" or anything similar.


This is how the pager looks like, nothing at all is loaded or shown. Tried rebooting PC, tried reinstalling and also tried new beta/older versions, nothing helped.

BYOND Hub server is likely down for some reason. All you can do is wait until Tom or Lummox figures it out and either fixes it or ascertains what the problem is and how long we may have to wait.
Yeah, I guess it is back. Just worked fine for me.
Still no for me.
Seems like intermittent communication is getting through but it isn't working 100% yet. My pager is online but I can't connect to anything, and looking at the various games on the hub it seems like there was a widespread outage.
Hm, so I presume everyone is having this problem? I was seeing, on my BYOND pager, that people are on my Favorite Game list. Anyone else having this issue, where it is stuck Connecting? I can login and it tells me that I am online but I cannot connect to games.
I'm not even getting past the " offline pager " problem.
More'n likely what's happening is some kind of network problem with whatever company that owns the server farm the BYOND Hub is hosted on, and network issues can take hours or days to completely resolve as the information propagates around the internet. Try opening cmd.exe and running the command ipconfig /flushdns and try connecting again. There's not much else you can do aside from wait until it fixes itself, or until official word from Tom or Lummox appears.
Ziddy you have to wait it will fix that problem sooner or later. I just had that offline pager issue and I left my laptop alone for 15 minuets and it works fine now. But I can't connect to any games, it tells me connection closed on all the games.
I have the same problem here.

It say: Logged in as Shisha Sosei [Offline]

If i try to enter in a game, it say connection closed.

I re-installed BYOND but same problem.
Same thing is happening to me

Says im offline
The login servers are down. some people logged and stayed logged in since this morning so there fine and can still play. It's only if you try logging in now. Hope this helped.
We had an unexpected outage with the hub. We're looking into the logs to see what happened so it doesn't recur in the future.
It is fine for me now.
The problem is solved for me now.
This happens to me every now and then but if I get on an alternative Account it will load up sweet, then I try again on my main account and nothing.

Usually I'll either do ^ a couple times or just leave it logged on my main account and play a game from the "last played" list.
Still no luck for me. I'm getting "BYOND Hub: connection failed."
Still? D:
