Ive never seen so many whiney a** mfkers since last time i tried to run a 40 person raid in WoW.... oh no hour and a half downtime, lets b***h and moan some more and maybe we'll get some free SP's.... Im with this guy. BLOCK YOU ALL HA



Battle grounds in WoW, plenty of whiners in those. You hear we 're going to lose and the BG has hardly begun. You do get more youngsters in WoW but then against AoC was an 18+ and that wasn't much better.

Due to power issues that caused the server to experience problems, we require an emergency restart of the server to set things right. TQ went down at 14:50 UTC and came back up at 15:31.

However, it is again experiencing significant issues so another emergency reboot of TQ is necessary. We expect the downtime to last 30 minutes.

We will update this thread as we have more information.

UPDATE 16:30 UTC: After investigating, our operations team has determined that the cause of the issue is hardware related. We must extend the emergency downtime by one and a half hour, to 18:00 UTC due to this.


Please do not compensate us. The fact that you care enough to fix something is compensation enough. Plenty of MMO, browser game, and FB app developers just let their games stay glitchy and unplayable, and zero damns are given whilst players jump ship in droves.
CCP doesn't do that. CCP attacks the problem and keeps us informed. That is all the compensation we need. The Gimmie-Gimmies aren't important.... they will eventually ragequit, anyway. The sooner the better. Replace them with awesome noobs that don't mind PvP.


This!! Yes, we pay for a game, some pay through enough isk to afford PLEX and get time that way. CCP never promised 100% uptime. Just like any ISP, they have a clause in there stating it cannot be guaranteed, you should have known this when you paid. Argue all that you want that without the payments they wouldn't be able to stay in business but the fact remains, they offer the service and you CHOSE to sign up.

I'm happy CCP actually announces what is happening. I've played too many games where servers just go down and nothing is known for 3-4 days why. Good on CCP to at least keep it's players informed.

because we are paying them to play working game, its not some free beta server



ok so the total time lost is gonna be no more than 3 hours right?

take that of the 8554 hours that it should be online this year so far= 8551
3 is 0.03507131166705635% of 8554

0.003507131166705635% of £10(membership fee) is £0.003507131166705635

CCP, you need to upgrade to faction hamsters immediately.
Here is the problem : Regular Hamster
Now note the Faction Green Hamster system : Faction Hamsters Note how the hamsters in the faction system are able to take turns running full speed, keeping full power while not crashing the system.
Please upgrade as soon as possible. Think of the hamsters...

Please remind me about how Eve is a facebook/browser game.



Cherry-pickers that don't read and comprehend the entire post before attempting to rebut/insult/discredit the person they are replying to, are dumb and should feel bad, forever.

Nowhere in that post did I say EVE was a browsergame or a FB app. Everyone knows EVE is spreadsheets with a GUI.

That moment when you realize the crazy lady with all the cats was right...
