Hi Guys,

Please can you implement regular mirroring onto Singularity? Whether it be once a week, every two weeks or once a month, it would really help with setup testing to have an idea of when to expect an updated mirror to appear especially with the Alliance Tournament coming up.

I waited all over Xmas for my faction stuff to be mirrored across and until eventually it was (ready for the March 1st test) but I stupidly took my beloved setup out for the mass test (wrongly thinking it would be re-mirrored after the test) and lost it and am now waiting for the next mirror again!!!!! Shocked

That was the first test I took part in, and I should have realised not to have used by faction stuff! Cry

Anyways, regular mirroring or at least an indication of when the next mirror will be could ease my pain...

Why not? How hard can it be to write a scheduled script to mirror the character and item DB tables? It should be a piece of cake!

be nice if they only mirrored once every 4-6 months in my opinion, short mirrors are a pain in the ass but it seems they only mirror when they are trying to do something that requires that or just on a whim, i heard this mirror is supposed to last til may/june if all goes well

short mirrors are better than long mirrors if you ask me, mirros that last 1 month is long enough in my eyes. because after that titan spam comes

As stated before, CCP have already said they will mirror when THEY need to, it is not a place to test your faction stuff, its a place for CCP to test their game before release.

Mirrors also take a large amount of time to do due top all the back-end fixing they need to do (such as removing POS'S). I believe the last figures they gave were about 3 days to complete a mirror process.
