CCP is quite the company that us sociopaths need and deserve!

...Now, if only Blizzard was up to par, and post something on that tune when yet another patch (such as an aptly named infernal one looming on the near horizon...) fails to deliver for days on end, or bricks your machine, or fails to repair, or fails to download, or reset your settings once more, etc., I'll be a really happy panda!

The last few expansion rollouts have been pretty smooth IIRC?

At least Blizzard devs didn't release a patch that deletes users boot.ini file.



And at least the Blizzard devs didn't almost accidentally the whole server.....TUXFORD.

Those are the errors you get in Diablo 3 when you try to log in and something doesn't work.

Now that is hilarious.
The question is, however, why are the dev's playing Diablo.....the traitors!

LOL that's exactly the first thing that crossed my mind as well when I saw that message!

I am not playing diablo3 but I still know what the errors means. The internet is full of making fun of them.

That splash screen was seriously funny.

And if EVE takes a short dirt nap when the expansion launches next week, and Blizzard pokes back, that'll be funny as heck, too.



That was going through my mind when doing this ad and that gamble seemed to be even more of an incentive to go ahead with it.

All in good fun. Big smile
please don't delete my boot.ini again thanks

Its funny EVEN BLIZZARD was surprised at the demand

And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking, but when you're good and crazy, oooh, oooh, oooh, the sky is the limit.
