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

STOP WHINING Twisted

Open your eyes, look to the devs and see.
They're just some poor guys, don't need no sympathy.
Because the server's up, server's down.
(Server's up, server's down)
Anyway the devs go, doesn't really matter to me, to me.

Fozzie, just killed the game.
Put an update to its head,
Pulled the trigger, now it's dead.
Fozzie, sov had just begun,
but now updates take all day.

Fozzie, ooh,
didn't mean to make Eve die.
If it's not back again this time tomorrow,
Carry on, carry on, as if you're going to get free isk.

Hello,

I am a Nigerian Prince.

Unfortunately due to the political conflict of my country I am unable to access my family's wealth of 1,500,000 A-Grade server hamsters from inside the country.

If you would be so kind as to provide your company's name, server location and credentials to access the building I will immediately ship my 1,500,000 purebred server hamsters to your address, from where I will collect them in the future.

As a mark of gratitude from myself and my family who are wrought with anxiety over this trouble, we will give to you no less than 500,000 of these server hamsters, to do with as you will.

Yours,

Prince Mbutu


Forward this letter to CCP, they may have use for those 500,000 server hamsters.

I would definitely play. Anyone under 3 years would suddenly be at a major advantage compared to the older characters that would lose a whole lot more.


Oh balls, as much as I would hate losing all my toons and time put into eve, i could rebalance and undo all my **** ups while i was learning, I could literally make up for over a year of stupidity. Knowing what i do now, and starting over, would be a blessing.

compensation for so many rainy days of missed work.

Compensation for off season, missed work.

Compensation for hearing people whine so much.

Compensation for the waste of air your breathing while sitting there typing drivil.

Compensation for you being born.

You would think that after 5 hrs, competent programmers would have solved this issue. It's time for compensation folks.


why is a programmer issue, maybe is a hardware failure. Compensation , this is another day at work, you get payed the same way.

Just be patient am sure they are working on it rather than reading this forum.

Who said you can't enjoy eve offiline, go visit other thirdparty website that don't depend on api, check fits . etc etc.

I know it sucks, but people are overeacting, if it takes another day then is something else.

Have fun and fly reckless(ohh wait we can't fly)

To be fair, if the downtime is this long it's probably something serious, if a bug corrupted the db state during downtime they'l be able to restore from backup (they probably backup every downtime, I would) but it would take ages to restore.


Sounds more like a hardware problem than software. Did CCP remember to pay the electric bill and is it plugged in?

FaultFinding means they suspect it's a hardware problem. Which is what I was worried about. If they find the faulty components, they can fix them, and hopefully this doesn't cause further software problems.
