Really guys, its not that hard.
Tidy up your legacy code, sort out your deployments, get a netscaler.

Build your own single sharded MMO and then post how's it going without maintenance downtime.

You seem grumpy, perhaps during downtime you should take a nap.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Technically not single-shard, every system is a separate process on their servers.
Hell, even a realm in World of Warcraft isn't one single system, different regions are run by different servers, that's why loading screens are a thing in that game.

If it's not hard, why haven't you provided CCP with a simple solution? I'm sure they would love to work with someone as knowledgable as you seem to be.

Heh, 2 weeks old & complaining about downtime.

Is a 3 minute nap really going to change anything?

You seem to be confused what single shard means. Implementation and hardware details are irrelevant, Eve has only one instance of universe running.

DOWNtime. DOWN under. See how that relates?


That is like Foreman and the white board.

I am down with downing the downtime.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

Maybe the OP should shift to decaf. I hear many decaf coffees are indistinguishable from high-test...

When you're alone and life is making you lonely
You will always have, downtime
When you've got worries, all the noise and the hurry
Seems to help, I know, downtime

Just listen to the music of the traffic in the server
Linger on the launchscreen
Where the neon signs are pretty
How can you lose?

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles
Forget all your cares and go

Downtime, things'll be great when you've
Downtime, no finer time for sure
Downtime, everything's waiting for you
Downtime

Don't hang around and let your problems surround you
There are movie shows downtime
Maybe you know some little places to go to
Where they never close, downtime
Just listen to the rhythm of a gentle bossa nova
You'll be dancing with him too before the boot is over
Happy again

The lights are much brighter there
You can forget all your troubles, forget all your cares
So go downtime, when all the lights are green
Downtime- waiting for you tonight
Downtime- you're gonna be all right now

And you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
Someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
Guide them along

So maybe I'll see you there
We can forget all our troubles, forget all our cares
So go downtime; things'll be great when you're
Downtime; don't wait a minute for
Downtime; everything's waiting for you

Downtime, downtime, downtime, downtime

I hear Petula Clark is looking for you. And she's packing blasters.

Sometimes computers just need to be rebooted to clear up issues/prevent them, but beyond that, easier to reboot the system rather than run a ridiculous number of respawn processes at the same time along with the tons of other things that go on. A few minutes without your precious game won't kill you.
