Alright well first off I know I've reported this about 6 times in the last 4 months, but nothing seems to be being done about it.

And No Clearing Cache does not work
And No it's not my ISP
And No it's not my rig

* It's really annoying to get randomly Dc'd sometimes 6 times a session with the error "Socket Has closed". I am not the only one to report this issue. There are 50+ threads about it

* Also it occurs A LOT more when your running multiple clients. (Which is like a staple of Eve).

* It was not an issue until several Patches into Odyssey

CCP please fix this as it is a SEVERE issue. and needs your Immediate attention.

If Not you need to start refunding ship loses for this error as it is Server Side (Or maybe even an issue with your Client). And is and has been game breaking.

I mean I should be able to log on for more then 5 minuets without "Socket Closed".

Yea, this is really becoming an issue, I canceled my 5 account's about 2 months ago because this issue was being ignored by CCP, I recently Re-subbed hoping it would be fixed. So far I've been DC'd due to this error about 4 times in the last 30 minuets.

It is 100% game breaking and why it hasn't been fixed is beyond me. If it isn't dealt with soon, I will once again be unsubscribing and going to another game. No point in playing if you can't even stay logged in for more then 10 minuets at a time. (Honestly it's random though sometimes you can be on for 6 hours without getting it), but usually it occurs at least once every 2 hours, and generally during a time when you really do not want to be DC'd....)

Yea it's almost impossible to run more then 2 accounts as you'll log one account in and 30 seconds later, one of your other accounts goes "Bye Bye The Socket Has closed".

WTF?

yea, It's like almost 30 seconds exactly like clockwork, I timed it the last 4 times.

Yea ok so here's what I've noticed:

If you try and run more then 2 clients (and even just 2 in some cases).

* As soon as you log in the game tries to DC your other client, and keeps trying until it closes the socket.

* If you are on a single client it will randomly attempt to try and close the socket (but is less successful) however it will eventually succeed.

* over the course of the last hour I have tried repeatedly to stay online with more then 2 clients running and every time I start the 3rd client it auto DC's one of my others.

I'm talking time to log in and time to DC is less then 30 seconds sometimes. 1 Client is generally stable for a few hours (usually)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CCP FIX THIS ISSUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clearing the cache DOES NOT WORK!
