Hey, this is Carino from the Phoenix server. I doubt any of you know me, but I am hoping someone will be kind enough to help me anyway, if they can.

I've been gone several months, as there was a move and internet problem, which were figured out, but I just got ahold of my PS2 again. I hooked everything up and tried to connect and I am now getting an error. I was wondering if anyone else had gotten this error and, if so, what did they do to make everything all rainbows and puppy dogs again. The error read as follows:

Network Connection Error

Error Code: POL-1040

No response from DCHP server. Please try again later or check networking devices, such as cables and router or network settings.



I checked all of the cables and router and they worked. I think the settings are right. I did it the same way I always have, and I am connecting via Comcast High Speed as I did at the old place, but it just refuses to cooperate. I tried waiting a bit and trying again, et cetera. Nothing.

Any helpful input would be wildly appreciated.

-Carino.

  So, yes. Eadryx and I were on the boat from Selbina, heading home to Windy. We'd gone to VD in an attempt to toughen him up a bit. Anyway, he got tired of it, so we caught the ferry. Now, on the way there last time, I was nailed by the Sea Monk, so I was careful this time about going up to the main deck.

All was well.

So, we're sitting around, marveling at the tarus and galkas who have obviously been around a lot longer than we have when I notice a ship pulling up on our port side. I looked over to Eadryx to see him looking at me, wide eyed. Then I thought I heard this music in my head...

All was not well.

Within moments we were boarded and half the passengers, myself and my apprentice included, were utterly wiped out. Skeletons and sea monks and, god, just.. we all died. He and I were truly idiotic though. We'd gone so far as to escape downstairs, where we could still hear the ruckus from above of the tough ones fighting it out with our supernatural pirates. So, being the adventurous boys that we are, we figured "what the hell" and went topside. I watched him die. I ran up the steps and into the bridge... where I was chased and summarily executed.

Hilarity ensued.

There was this rather impressive galka by the name of Wil who just went and tore each and every one of them a new hole. He came away virtually unscathed. AND! Eadryx and I, your hero, Carino, were raised from the dead by a pair of taru who were wise enough to keep their asses belowdecks.

Moral of the story: death at sea is the coolest thing EVER.
