This pizza thing smacks of the injustice of our times... oh what sad times are these when passing strangers can break servers, and kill hamsters at will, while getting pizza for it... and the people suffer, they have no pizza or server connectivity! Low, and hark, and other LARP sayings of yore, which I think means like earlier this morning... as in, the server broke a fort-yore ago... erm, anyway...

We demand indemnities in the form of pizza vouchers to be remitted though the online thingy that allows us to get stuff from CCP to us in some way that makes me have pizza here, cause I don't and I want some now. And watching that moron with the "just do it" yelling made me blink and then I was hungry.

ok, back to YouTube... please use Duracell Hamsters in the repairs.

Mummy pays for your sub then...

If you bought a plane ticket and on arrival at the airport it wasn't there you'd go spanner. This is no different.

CCP adopting the casual approach to informing us of the situation AND their casual approach at change control (i.e rollback procedure? support plan? ) would be totally fine if this were a free game. It is not. Subs = customers, ergo require a level of service delivery.
Interweb space ships or airplane tickets, you bought into a service and they, in this case CCP need to deliver. This should be a ******* massive wake up call to the current state of the process they use to roll out changes in a production environment.

Someone / people have dropped the ball and as such someone really needs to step up and sort this out. This current issue can not be solved with a wave of a finger BUT mitigating issues reoccurring should now be a priority.
This used to happen a fair bit back in the day, what is worrying is we are seeing it happen again despite the obvious improvements to hardware and software.

Major outages such as this really should be, and in most cases are, a thing of the past.

CCP step up and explain what actually is happening to rectify this and why it occurred in the first place, and it needs to be someone the fine pilots of this great game respect.

Fobbing us off with lip service is insulting.

ps having ordered the pizza i wonder your reaction if they were cold, mashed up and inedible....guessing you would want it sorted??! What?


I pay my sub with my hard earned money from work. Exactly as most of us do. CCP are doing a great job for the salary they get. They don't need a bunch of whining children because the server happens to be down for one day. Don't you have a bloody life? Or to fat to get up and go out? *sighs*

Na i think with the length of time we have been down now there prob will be some sort of reimbursements Prob skill points witch is CCP's normal go to in the sort of soituation


Maybe, hence my 99.9%. It's nothing I count on will happen. If they want to, and feel like it, we will probably get something. But I don't expect do be given something for free. Smile

It's an awkward situation. I don't expect to get something for free either, but CCP has a reputation for embarassing the consumers with over-compensation for the tiniest of problems. They're really good to their base.

The game developers could have left the game static and unchanged over a decade ago and cashed out with millions upon millions of dollars. Good on them that they won't settle and are working hard to keep it fresh and new.

That said, I'm leaving work now. Sure would be nice if it were back online soon. We're in baseball's all-star break, so not much going on otherwise!

when you become a grown up you will not need to be told this: When you get to your airport and your plane has had a delay and you have to wait a day till the next one you suck it up and realize bad things happen and the world doesn't revolve around you.
If your a petulant child you stamp your feet and whine.

I think we can all see which one you are sir
