Is my DDO World Server Down ?
Well, well what do we have here Hmm This afternoon I decided to do a little bit of inventory work on my toons since it was raining and we had some high winds, I thought well, it's got to get done before It gets too outof control.
I fired up both Pc's up, yes you can still do multi session DDO but my PC isn't that great, I mean it does what I need and well it's no speed demon. So I finished up and logged out to the main menu on my desktop, and shut down the laptop and started to get dinner prepared, and enjoyed come company from my family, had dinner and they left.
I came back to waking my PC up and and the familiar DDO start page was gone. I thought well no big deal, I know it timed out and I'll restart the prelauncher DDO program, and it gave me an error message, about some internal error, contact tech support and ok button. Damm DDO mesed up my plans for the evening, I wanted to finish up my 2nd and work on 3 level quests, :( but no.... DDO had other plans. So I restarted the prelauncher, and the same thing happened, I tried the direct DDO start icon, same thing :( , hmm ok restart PC, restart DDO prelauncher, MO2^&*(^%$#@!!! well ok that didn't do anything..... well then I remembered a website talking about if your DDO server was up or not, I googled it and found 2 of them, So one seems to be DDO Website and the other is each world server.
Give each a few seconds to load in and try the sites first, to see if it's you or if is just DDO being DDO.
Update ... 2013/11/21 DDO is down again .... Having server problems again, some servers are down and some are running.
This is for the main site

This link checks the game sever itself, more reliable then the main site as far as game play is concerned.
