I think my shortest skillqueue is in the 70 something days... it's unlikely I run out before they fix the server.

Also: "tomorrow is patch day, set up a long skill!"

Heh, I might shamefully make such a petition myself. I had actually started training a new alt about 30 minutes before downtime. The plan was to inject him with +3s right after downtime once Cybernetics had trained.

Well, so much for that Smile. What sucks is the training plan is exactly 90 days. Now it will be... more than 90 days! UNACCEPTABLE!!

Anyone that has their skill queue run out when the server is down for a couple of hours (or even a day) is a total moron.

Just sayin'

If the 24 hour skill queue was still a thing then you might have had a point, but it isn't, so you don't.

I never have less than 14 days of skills queued regardless of how often I log in.

If the shoe fits and all that

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

You can extend your skillqueue to up to 10 years of skilling straight through, assuming no dependencies! Smile
Which half of the players do you represent again? Lol

meh, there just comes a point...
I mean sure if you care about such things, it's a derp. But at some point it just isn't an issue for most, miss a day, miss a month w/e.
OP is obviously new, still figuring things out. *Looks at OP's profile... lol nm. I didn't say "all".

I believe we SHOULD be compensated for 1 reason, I pay to play this game and this game was down for a lot of hours that I paid for, so either give me more game time, or Id like sp, thx What?

I should be compensated for having to play on the same server as you whiners.

Once the 24 hour limit got removed, I went in and added every skill I had to level 5. Just in case, you never know....

And at 12 hrs down, you lost around $0.25 worth of game time.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

Indeed we did and sometimes longer skills, especially after a patch release......Lol


Hell, back in 2003, sometimes the server crashed 2~3 times in one day....P

The problem isn't about skills (except for those who planned to change their implants), but about PI.
I lost more than half a day of PI, I lost so many iskies (at least 4m!).

In fact, I don't really care, I was just starting with PI, I have much better sources of income, for the moment.
