Thanks Gargant, I know what hard it's being a sysadmin.

Actually CCP Gargant admitted to eating the Hamsters that powered the main part of Eve......


Wouldn't the main servers need guinea pigs for a bit more grunt?



Guess I would have to conceed to your logic!!

Tranquility is currently down for emergency maintenance. It is estimated to come back up at 18:00 UTC.

Due to power issues that caused the server to experience problems earlier today, we did an emergency restart of the server to set things right. TQ went down at 14:50 UTC and came back up at 15:31 UTC.

However, it is again experiencing significant issues so another emergency reboot of TQ is necessary. We expect the downtime to last until 18:00 UTC.

We will update this thread as we have more information.

UPDATE 16:30 UTC: After investigating, our operations team has determined that the cause of the issue is hardware related. We must extend the emergency downtime by one and a half hour, to 18:00 UTC due to this.



"The problem seems to be Hardware related" I'm sure they meant to say Hamster related.

Hey, honestly, you should all count your lucky stars that EVE works as well as it does when the servers aren't broken.

Let us take a moment to think of our poor single-player brothers, those fans of the X series, waiting for Egosoft to to release a playable version of their latest 'game'.

Hour Three

Well past the second hour now, I find my breathing is hard, rasping, it's difficult to get a full breathe. My palms are sweaty and hands are shaking. I look in the mirror and don't recognize myself, while I wonder where this stack of empty pizza boxes came from.

I fear the withdrawal will become worse, and for the first time, I consider jumping out of the airlock, if I could just find it.

I'm sure the townsfolk will come with torches and pitchforks to burn me alive, but maybe the native English-speaking player-base can use this downtime productively by improving their spelling and grammar skills. Blasphemy, I know ... I know.

could've (short for could have), not "could of" FFS ... This one actually causes kittens to be killed, people!
then/than ... no, wait. THIS is the one that gets kittens killed.
