I was playing and all of a sudden the game crashes and cant connect to server now. Was this expected? or just a server crash?

Server is down, you can find a link to status page in "Gameplay discussion" subforum.

I did not know that existed, thank youI will use that from now on

Any eta on when it will get back up?
I'm wondering the same thing, is there an estimate to how long it'll be down?
well the actual server site from seatribe said it crashed. who knows when it will come back up, hopefully soon.
is it crashed or shut down?

it says it crashed, for some reason or another.
Gah! When will the server come back up? I'm jonesing bad.
This is working out real well for me! I got a crap load of work I needed to do and I know if Salem was up I'd be playing instead! Actually making tons of progress now
Being with Paradox is just a disguise. Loftar and Jorb are still sitting on a home-run server!
Still, this is the longest the server has ever been down without any explanation -- since I've started playing, at least. They have done a good job keeping the server up, in my opinion. The HnH server used to kill me -- HnH is just as addictive as this game, and this would happen much more often when I was addicted to it.
With no comment from the community manager or the devs, this downtime is starting to look more serious than just a crash.
If this were just a crash, it'd be back up by now, unless everyone with access to the server went on vacation at the same time. This is more likely a server hardware failure. Possibly even a hard drive failure. I hope they have backups.
That, or the silence is even more ominous, and the company is shutting down.
They pulled the plug as soon as they read this:

I just got this from the Dev team:
They have broken thru the down stairs doors, I can hear them as they are fighting in a mass of bodies. Hand made clubs, 2 fire axes, and one crickett bat. We started the fight in the streets, but more and more just kept coming. What they lacked in ability they more then made up in an ungoddly drive to rip the flesh from our bodies. Jorb went down taking on 5 at once, his last words, past the pain, and the sound of blood in his voice "Turn on the Servers, they are our only hope." Please help us, oh god ple
