To a large extent, I've never seen such a bunch of entitled whiners. This is a game, folks.

I've been where CCP are now, in Real Life (anyone ranting here knows what that is?). I can assure you that no one involved with the servers or the relevant programming now is sitting back and opening up the beers. They're going through a nightmare right now.

CCP Falcon is telling us what can be told. In situations like this its a delicate balance between letting the guys who can fix the issue fix the issue, and bugging them to tell you what's going on when it probably isn't clear to anyone yet.

A good percentage of you folks are reacting like 13 year old boys whose only knowledge of responsibility is taking a shower once in a while and making sure your corp's POSs are fueled up.

Let's be nice humans with some compassion & a reasonable sense of priorities. CCP want the servers back up, believe it or not, more than we do, and they have a better reason for it.

Keep hacking, CCP. Ignore the haters. They have no idea what's going on.

Oh, and Falcon, loved the addition of the Maurice fire-in-server-room graphic. Made my day!

Good luck, guys!


Very few of the posts today have been whiners. I've read them all and you sir, are over-reacting!


Very true. Most of us are actually enojying this extended DT :)

and you need to drink.... it's the rules :P

I know what there doing

1 each time a person demands compensation ccp keeps the servers down 1 extra hour

2 every time you think you should get a modual ccp takes a shot of vodka

3 every time you think you should get free sp ccp drinks a tanker of beer

4 every time a person just in general whines that the game is not on ccp snorts 2 lines

lesson learned

Oooooh! Threadnought. Big smile

Here I used to have a sig of our old Camper in space. Now it is disregarded as being the wrong format. Looking out the window I see one thing: Nothing wrong with the format of our Camper! Silly CCP......

Isn't this why Patches are released on Tusdays?? Ever since Beta any patch that was released on any other day but tusday has caused the cluster to Hate the new patch.

Thought after nearly 15 years this will have been fixed, but I bet it's the sever overheating due to age, Linux will only go so far to keep old clusters functional. P

So, forgive me if I've missed something, but let me check i have this right.

CCP bring down Eve at the usual DT and take the opportunity to fix a few bugs and presumably these bugs weren't real show-stoppers, as they wouldn't have waiting until DT before trying to fix them otherwise.

Eve fails to start up after DT and fair enough CCP try to fix the problems.

After several hours, said problems have still yet to be fixed, which prompts the question, why don't CCP just restore the software to how it was before they applied the fixes at DT?

It apparently can't be this easy, but i do tend to look for obvious solutions, when i am being deprived of EVE time. :)


Most companies dont give money for business continuity management (BCM) and very often you hear "I cant remember any problem in past - why shall we invest in BCM?

And if the crash is there, the management didnt search the reasons, they search the guilty person to fire. BCM is much more than to have a backup - now we see the necessity.

Business as usual, not only here.

Pretty much this ...

CCP Falcon is updating us about the progress which is more than i've seen from other companies concerning downtimes!

Also, EVE has survived way longer DTs ... It'll be done when it's done and if it takes 3d EVE will still be there!
