Amazing insight, I bet CCP wish they had experts onboard.

Carry on my Iteron,
There'll be peace when your haul's done.
Lay your weary drives to rest,
Don't you warp no more.

Once I rose above the fights and explosions,
To get glimpse beyond this null system.
I was mining with my lasers, but Mercoxit makes me cry.

Though my alts could fight I still was a miner,
Cause my corp likes to move I still have a hauler.
I hear the mail pings even when I'm dreaming,
telling me to flee.

Carry on my Iteron,
There'll be peace when your haul's done.
Lay your weary drives to rest,
Don't you warp no more.

Masquerading as a man with a skill tree,
Most of my them are only trained up to three.
And if I claim to be a fighter,
It surely means that I won't haul.

On a stormy system of Sov fights,
Tossed about, ownership changes every night.
I set a course and drag my whole fortune,
Cause I hear the corp mails say.

Carry on my Iteron,
There'll be peace when your haul's done.
Lay your weary drives to rest,
Don't you warp no more, no!

Carry on,
You will always be hauling.
Carry on,
Nothing equals your holdings.
Now that your hold's no longer empty,
Surely scouters wait for you.

Carry on my Iteron,
There'll be peace when your haul's done.
Lay your weary drives to rest,
don't you fly,
Don't you warp no more,

No more!

Once again the AUTZ gets screwed because of CCP have no idea what they are doing.

edit: vip mode this is the one guys THIs is the one


That explains it, they aren't using a real database...


Holy ****!

They are actually running this on a windows server?

Are they mad!?!?!?!? No wonder they need a daily downtime. They really do need to reboot their servers every day. Dayum.

I seriously thought everyone was sensible enough to at least put there servers on a solid OS (some form of UNIX) but apparently I was wrong...

No wonder they can't roll back. They might need to reinstall their OSs to fix this. Did microsoft issue one of their "unstoppable" patches yesterday?


I must say Im a little amazed by this too....Linux/Unix would infinitely better IMHO

That'll teach me to drink milk while reading this thread.

I, literally, very nearly spewed chocolate milk all over my laptop.

Thumbs up.

A guy finds his dog with the neighbor's pet rabbit in its mouth. The rabbit is dead and the guy panics. He takes the dirty, chewed up rabbit into the house. He gives it a bath, blow dries its fur, and puts it back into the cage at the neighbor's house, hoping they will think it died of natural causes.

A few days later, the neighbor asks the guy, "Did you hear that Fluffy died?"

The guy stammers and says, "Um... no... what happened?"

The neighbor replies, "We found him dead in his cage one day, but the weird thing is that the day after we buried him, someone had dug him up, gave him a bath and put him back into the cage. There are some real sick people out there!"

More than 3 hours downtime - looks not very professional.

Every change of software can be faulty but there must be a way to rollback to a working system. If I do this in my job, I didnt survive the day.

Maybe that some guys dont remember, that there are customers on the other side.


Customers like you they can do without. bye
