Just to keep things in perspective for you all:

There are 30 days in a sub cycle. This is 720 hours a cycle. The most expensive sub fee for Eve is $15USD/mo. This works out to ~$0.02 cents an hour.

So, all in all, per account, you are currently out right around 12 cents USD as of this moment.

If this amount is truly stressful for you, please send me a verifiable invoice of your current accounts. I will reimburse you the time you are currently out from Eve right from my own pocket.


It's not the rl money. I could have made 6-7 bil in those 6-7 hours (some a lot more, some a lot less)


Well, no one else made any ISK either...so you are exactly where you were in relation to the entire community. I hope this makes you feel better.
Yeah, you've not lost any more than anyone else.

Maybe you should all get onto how this relates to other things?

How does it affect Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner, purple penguins, and the stars and bars?

I don't know, but Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner and "purple penguins" kinda relate to a really specific set of things.

Something you'd like to share with us friend? It's cool, we're pretty accepting. Hell, I got back from having my surgery in Thailand not too long ago. Great stuff.



Most of what I can share is along the lines of 'Don't ask, don't tell.' I liked that policy.

I didn't ask. So why am I constantly being told? Bruce/Caitlyn should be able to be whatever, in silence. There is no need to tell.

Seems like today, there is a lot of need to tell me things, things I never asked. I was just trying to introduce some levity into the situation, but what I can tell you is that love the stars and bars, and that's a lot more of an issue for me than Bruce ever was, or eve being down.

Look at how fast these posts come. There is, and I'm not even being facetious here, more interest generated in server downtime than in most anything I've recently seen. Anyhows, enough blather, unless you have something amusing you want to add, that is.

You know the community would be more understanding if they tell us what is happening, servers not booting up, code they just input screwed everything, gremlins started drinking their beer so they can't get their morning fix.
