So, tonight I decided to resub to EVE after a few months break, spent my money and logged in to my usual low sec haunt and decided to run a few sites, first combat site i get a socket error, cant reconnect for 5 minutes and log back in to find my ship with about 9% hull, stump up the ISK for repairs having made no money and done nothing wrong and head out to my next hit, a mul-zatah monastery, killed the 30 cruisers, had about 5-6 missile batteries left and shock horror, socket error on both accounts, log back in, site has despawned so no loot, only yet more repairs.
Summary of my first 2 hours back in EVE, -6 Million ISK in unnecessary repairs, 2 hours of time totally wasted, and I payed actual money for this "pleasure", please CCP get your **** together and stop wasting my time and taking my money for the privilege :) |

Yeah because socket closures must be CCP's fault right OP?

This thread has a glorious future. 50 pages from now after every CCP dev has weighed in on the issue of socket closures and finally tracked down that one little thing they just couldn't wrap their head around and eliminated disconnects for all time, we will sing your praises, OP.
Who knew? All CCP needed was just one . . . more . . . thread.

As much fun as it is to be snarky, I actually like Sibyyl's approach better. I just sent you 20 mil to cover your losses + a little extra for your inconvenience.
Do me a favor and not use the forums for pointless spamming that accomplishes nothing. That is not, in fact, what they are for. I honestly feel like I just read fifty shades of dumb. --CCP Falcon |

Current threads, Go check the Issues forum, didn't take long, the 50 page sticky was fairly easy to find, as was finding at least 2 other threads on the first page, secondly CCP don't advertise problems, they never have, they just deny their existence. CCP's twitter, why bother, and finally, this problem happens only in eve, i can play twenty other online games on servers around the world and never have any problems, thats pretty much a clue its not me or my connection |

Every socket closed error I've ever had as been on my end. The other problem I had with the game crashing frequently was completely fixed as soon as I changed my ram. So that was also on my end.
despite what others may say I generally don't believe it is CCP's fault, I mean aside from boot.ini... *ouch* You can trust me, I have a monocole |

I tend to find the majority of people facing this issue are playing on WiFi. That was my problem. Once I went LAN, never had it since, except when EVE actually dies for lots of people at once, not just me. GÇ£Some capsuleers claim that ECM is 'dishonorable' and 'unfair'.

They should really change the name of that error. "Socket Closed" makes it sound like the EVE servers disconnected you intentionally.
Change it up to "Lost connection with server" or something like that. It isn't really hard, but I think there are customers that you can lose in a good way and there's customers that you can lose in a bad way. If people come in and fundamentally don't like EVE Online, then I think that might be a good way of losing customers. . -á--CCP Soundwave |

Personally, I'm glad to know where ISK doubling scammers come from. Turns out they were all just butthurt about network errors. Will definitely keep this in mind next time I'm in Jita.
In fact, I might start selling "Socket Openers" for a billion isk each and see if I can get the doublers to bite . . . . I honestly feel like I just read fifty shades of dumb. --CCP Falcon |

I don;t think you understand how the internet works. there are a few 'backbones' or high speed networks that everyone connects to. 1/2 the world isps don;t need to suck, all it take sis one backbone to have a hickup and it causes issues.

and this only ever happens in EVE and in no other online game/application, or im just really unlucky and its happened 4 times in the last 2 hours and has never happened ever in any other game, also given how many ppl are complaining about this error these 'backbones' must be really really bad, strange how ive never noticed it before...
oh wait sarcasm makes ppl cry, must stop |

I have LAN connection and last night experienced 2 'Socket Closed' issues within 30 minutes plus the 'Blackout' issue that kicked a large majority of players..
It's definitely an issue on CCP's end.

A large number of NA players have reported socket closures for some time now. It's happening to me daily. |

it may not be a direct problem with CCP's infrastructure, but you cant seriously say "the internet stopped working between you and CCP" is a genuine excuse, not when it happens to loads of ppl all the time.
Also the whole time this has been going on the person in the next room has been playing COH2 and several other games online without any network errors/timeouts or in fact any problem at all, so why is EVE so prone to timeouts and socket errors ? |

That's an interesting problem you have there. Might I interest you in a Socket Opener? I'm selling them in Jita for 1 Billion ISK a piece.
