The reason the servers have been unstable is due to a semi-public pake exploit that was going around. If done incorrectly it could cause major lag on channels or crash them. My sources tell me Nexon has already banned the users abusing this and this is most likely a patch to correct the exploits.
It seems that too many people managed to get their hands on that exploit. Right now on Alexina Ch4 and Ch7 don't have events, Ch5 is marked as "Server Booting" and Ch6 is completely gone from list.
*sigh*
