Seriously, I get the "We were ganked" screen more often than I can connect. I even copied this into my clipboard cause it's like a 1 in 3 chance this post will be ganked.

Gank edit: yep, ganked posting this. 2 times and counting.

They have to be aware of the problem. Not sure why they allow it to persist. Maybe as a general deterrent to keep too many trolls, complainers and users away so that their moderation team can cope? P

4x ganked and 1x "You can't post in the next 0 seconds"

CCP - Building ant hills and magnifying glasses for fat kids

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.

What's really funny is that my post that made it through was ganked too, I almost posted it again but had to come back in from the main forum page and saw that it'd made it through.

if you get the ganked message less than 5 times id keep quiet as you must be 1 of the privileged ones......8, 9 even 10 times in a row is nothing atm.

They really need to fire the team that put these forums together and outsource it to a company that knows what they're doing.

Is it unusual for the forums to crash at the same time as the game server? Cause I think that's what happened...

^^This.

Although I like the new forums they are very prone to the "GANK" message.

One of the last things Zymurgist posted was to bug report ganks with the server ID listed at the bottom of the page so they know what to look at.

The bottom part that looks like this "Copyright © CCP 1997-2011 Version 1.0.3.33 | SRV #A353D7DB"
SRV #A353D7DB being the server ID you are currently connected to.

its prob because ALOt of people are trying to use the forums because the game server is down. Causing a major bandwith issue with the forum server/db ^^

Indeed. This is nothing new but has steadily been getting worse.

CCP, capable of designing a program that can handle 40,000+ players playing in near real-time from all over the world, and completely incapable of writing forum software that doesn't overload the database.
