CCP needs to take SP away from all the ppl crying that they want free SP that will teach em to STFU

Great work CCP and keep it up!

A dev on twitter (can't remember which) said there was no security issue for us to worry about

Well the other thread was locked so I'll say it again here. Thank you CCP for the hard work on a sunday evening/monday morning. I'm sure you all had responsibilities outside of EVE that you had to make sacrifices for so I appreciate that.

Also looks as though I'm training drone repair operation to level 5... Good thing I always keep a long skill at the end of the queue!


Agreed. The fact that they've been at it since ~07:00 yesterday pretty much says they are busting their asses trying to get everything back up. There really isn't any use for getting all worked up over this. There are other things people can do while they aren't playing, like go to work, clean the house, do some gardening, go have breakfast, or anything else that isn't sitting in front of a computer spamming to log on.

I hope we get enough SP compo?


The only time CCP did that the downtime was their error this time it is not. Giving player rewards for such attacks would cause alot of further attacks I would think. I can't see it happening.

A free day on our subs would be nice though.


I like your logic. :o

**** it, unscheduled downtime, may as well roll out Odyssey early :P



I agree its june 3 now and server is still offline , might as well roll out Odyssey , instead of double extended downtime on june 4.


Except that there's people like me that wasn't expecting a sudden DDoS, and have characters that their skill queue has run out..



I am in the same boat.. I have not managed to get on for 24 hrs.. and its bed time now, so 3 accounts will be nearing the end of their queues...
We had a public holiday today, and I have just realized how addicted I have become to eve.. nothing to do all day :( 1 bil of easy isk lost before the patch comes and changes the hubs :(. If CCp is feeling kind, I would rather have a Sin I was going to buy with the ratting iskies than the skill points Twisted
BUt at least CCP is getting there.. good job..

Good to see the site is back up and running at least. While the outage was reported on game sites, not everyone reads those.



I think they do it so we can vent? LOL

I like how RETARDS think that they already lost anything when everyone was unlogged.

The only thing you might have lost would either be SP or virginity during this DT.

The servers havent gone back up yet for anyone, so AU tz can feel just as hard done by as the bitching americans, im pretty sure the forums going back up is a sign that all will be back to normal in New Eden soon, you can then set your ice mining alts and your macro and go AFK again.


If you are going to say "bitching americans" you can at least capitalize Americans, it is after all proper.

Oddly enough, it sounds like you are the one doing the bitching, and in a way that is extremely sarcastic which makes it that much more bitchy.


I'm guessing you American. Your primetime was RUINED. Your already pissing me off...


My Government is American, I'm a Human

And my prime time starts when the server is up. =)

Most likely, a huge percentage of the people that play EVE are American, which is most likely why you think all Americans *****. But you are the one speaking English, and bitching about Americans. Seems ironic to me.

I do happen to agree however that people shouldn't be bitching about the down time, specially being that it wasn't CCP's fault at all. While I do agree with that, I don't agree with your attitude towards Australians and Americans, or any other nationality for that matter. In this one place in the entire world where people can exist without racial or national bias, without religious bias, without regard to all those worldly things that cause unreasonable conflict such as skin color, etc, you feel the need to insult specific people, and for what purpose?

I knew all them socket closed errors we been having wasn't our fault. Server has been down for nearly 24 hours for me personally and I got a fleet of about 3b+ floating in space if the previous posts are true I expect SP and ship reimbursement for this CCP. Normally I don't post in these omg DT 30 mins late threads but this time its just ridiculous.



Well fortunately for you, your 3b hasnt been shot at by somebody in the last 20 hours or so



That's not even counting the 3-5b in lost income, and 350m for my daily plex costs we talking a huge ass fleet.

If your ship blows up because of DT you will very likely get it back. Calm down.
