Guys, I know how this feels, I am also working in IT. Go home, have a break and sleep for a while and start over again tomorrow. This is only a game. And in case yo don't listen to this advice, please at least drink some beer while fixing the servers and don't listen to any grumpy angry player

All I heard was "slurp slurp slurp.... ziiiiiip"

You're not going to be working in IT for very long if you think "going home and getting some sleep" is the way to make your customers happy.


i am working in IT too and yeah what do you know, even IT guys need food and rest. we did some emergency scenarios in our company (ok we are only 2 people managing the IT :P) but you have to plan for rest and food in case **** hits the fan seriously... if you are tired and still working chances are that you **** things up even more.

so his advice is actualy sound!

That's why i'd never hire anyone from IT. It's better to work with hamsters - no sleep, no beer, no merci.

From all of us who have been in IT long enough to have been the one fixing something like this, I just want to say:


  1. Thank you for the 30 minutes updates (even when they are ... nope, not fixed yet.)
  2. Keep up the good work, you'll figure it out!
  3. Enjoy the pizza and beer/soda it may be a LONG night


I've been in the game a little over a year and this is the first "bad" downtime I've seen. Huge changes can = huge problems and rollbacks just aren't possible sometimes.

To all the whiner's.... If you are that upset with a game being down for a day, please go do something better with your life! Read a book, enjoy a movie, call your mom. You are not living up to your potential, find something meaningful to do with the "extra" time you have right now.

LOL @ all the people "also working in IT" telling CCP to just go home and start again tomorrow.

because yes, that's EXACTLY what you do when you have a client-facing mission-critical service down and a million unhappy customers - you eat some pizza, smoke a blunt and go home to **** to your favourite Pornhub series and then start fresh in the morning.


Was just going to write something similar then I've realised that the thread has 3 more pages.

Sigh.

CCP is lying to us. Patch notes implied an extremely trivial change but we are now into 9 hours of fail. Seems like they could have rolled back but, given the length of this downtime, even that option is futile.

Did anyone else notice that the shitposting has calmed down now that we've realized that there's no hope of the servers coming back online?
