Why don't you become the "decent programmer" that CCP should hire? Do you even know how difficult programming can be?


1 out of 10 for effort to be fair bro!

I aint a programmer but I am an professional IT tech and I know that QC is VITAL in any company.


It doesnt look like you have rolled patches into production under commercial constraints. Ever. And if you were a professional tech, you would know that **** happens, even after QC.

WTF is it always the same? If there are patches or other issues, the server NEVER comes back in time...

They are just preparing us for April 28th when for some reason there is going to be a 2 day crash. Coincidence?

It's ok as long as downtime ends before next monday.

Listened to Nyan Cat 700 seconds now. Let's hope I don't break my current record (2 hours).

Why hide important news like this on the forums? It needs to be in the launcher window!

Space. It seems to go on and on forever. But then you get to the end and a gorilla starts throwing barrels at you.

Yeah, decent programmers can make this happen with just one or two lines of code. CCP needs like four megs, what's that about?


The issue here is that "real" programmers, those who know that they're doing test once test twice test 3 times etc etc before they hand over the final finished product for release.

Who does not test a product before deployment? Only a mickey mouse setup would do such a thing. I don't think CCP is a software version of comedy central but for the love of god CCP you really need to hire a team for QUALITY CONTROL.




Real programmers know that 1 millions lines of code later, even god forgot an ; at the end of a line of code. Then tries to fix it while the whole world yell at him.
