Lol.

Have you played any MMO in the past 10 years?


Played eve for 10 years, by FAR the worst stretch of downtimes EVER!


I started playing Eve in early 2007 and the downtimes (unexpected ones) were longer and more frequent back then.

I think your anger has clouded your memory.

This is not a signature.

Then you would never notice downtime at all

CCP will you ever fix this or do we have to continue to pay you full price for a partial game?


No, you obviously don't have to. Just cancel subscription, send your ISK and stuff to me and biomass. Thanks and good bye! I hope you find a game that suits you better!

at least with the xbox one, when your internet is cut off you get 24 hours of gaming before it shuts down.

Confirming that we are all on the same time zone and don't have jobs.



Not my fault you live on the wrong continent


Not my fault you make assumptions.


Yes it is

I assumed you were a total ass


And I was right


Confirming that this assumption is as accurate as your previous ones, but that is only to be expected I guess.

EvE has a unique DT schedule, every day for what, less than an hour on the average? Most other MMO's have weekly maintenance that lasts around 6 hours on the average. In the end, it all works out. Fortunately for me, I live in a TZ where DT occurs when I am getting ready to go to work, so I can sympathize with others who are in prime time when DT hits.

That being said, recent events are not normal, there is a problem, and we can all assume that CCP is working on it. I understand some are angry about this, but to me I pay 50 cents per day for an entertainment product, I'm not going to get too upset if I can't use it for a few hours a day while CCP works out the bugs. If it's the principle of the matter, I guess I can undestand that...cheapskate. P

You make a valid point, good Sir or Madam.

You are so reasonable and rational




How did you end up with a bunch of reprobates like us?

He could de-stress and "release his drones". That's always a winner.

Also, if he looks in the mirror and practices the phrase.............."Would you like to up-size your order?" He'll get a job in no time!


Help us to help you OP.
