Server disappear - does it happen often?

[Verya 0]

Hey guys, so I was playing on DE 1740, just as I set up a tent and placed some items in it, I got the orange chain. I couldnt take the items I put in, but I could put in new items. I figured there was a server problem, so I saved the tent and logged off.

After I logged off, the server had disappeared! There were still people in it as I logged out. I log back into another server but the items I put into the tent during the orange chain are gone. Since the server is gone, I cant figure out if they are in the tent of if I lost the whole thing.

Anything like this ever happen to anyone? Do servers disappear every now and then? More importantly: DO THEY COME BACK?!
