I assume the server has been down all day for maintenance? anyway we can have an update when its back online? i wouldn't mind helping pay for better hosting if that would help resolve lag/skaro/plugin issues. 

 best 1 to ask is 1WTC about this cause I think he and the swd team are the only one's who can get on the sever as I have tried and I can't

That's right I'm afraid. As you said, it's offline due to maintenance.

Also you didn't have to make a whole thread just for this one question. I would recommend posting here: https://swdteam.co.uk/forum?p=thread&tid=280&page=1#t_post_id_1802
