Hamsters, actually. And shh! Don't tell them! Oops



What!!! You forgot to feed them

This ship is no more. It has ceased to be. It's expired and gone to meet the next salvaging unit around.
This is an ex-ship.


I didn't say that shield and armor are at 100%?

It's the janitor, it's always the janitor, using the wrong plug socket for the vacuum cleaner, he'd got away with it too if it weren't for us pesky capsuleers.

Darn,
I was hoping that they'd fixed the memory issue so I could run all 8 accounts again without eating 24gig of ram in a matter of minutes

I have no issues whatsoever with running 9 accounts + FFXIV on my 8 gig machine, for usually 23 hours a day. Are you sure it's an EVE issue?

I only want them if they are easily controllable, Sansha's will do. But definitely not Gallente! That's all I need, Hammy's that have a strong sense of free will :P

Got home at 2am local time after a good night of drinking and I was pretty keen to log in and be a drunk pest... and then turns out I can't get on. I guess I better be a sensible man and just go to sleep! Damn CCP making me be responsible.

In all seriousness, best of luck, hope it's fixed soon.

We apologize sincerely for the inconvenience.

Update 15:08 UTC: The issues encountered are bigger then at first believed, so downtime has been extended until 15:35 UTC.

    • Yeah, I know that UK is to blame for the power problems and hosting.

    Latest update is that downtime will last until 15:35 UTC. It seems that the issue was greater than at first expected.

    Our operations team are hard at work fixing the problem, however, and I'll go crack the whip once or twice again for good measure.

    Thank you all for your patience!
