Is it possible for Eve to have 24x7 availability? I live in Australia and downtime sucks here (downtime is 9-10pm). If that is not possible, then CCP could aim for downtime of 1 hour per week not per day. I'm not sure what kind of hardware they would have to get to achieve that. All I'm saying is that if big companies have servers that ensures 24x7 availability (e.g. banks, stock exchanges), why cant EVE have one?

EVE has a one hour downtime every day because CCP likes to annoy it's players, especially the Aussies. There's no other reason for it, really.

Because whenever they set downtime, SOMEONE will complain. And when that someone is on the other side of the planet, it's easier to ignore their cries of pain and suffering. ONE HOUR OF SUFFERING! - - - Aloriana Jacques - Skill Sheet

I'm guessing it **could** be possible but then you would have roids only 1-2 days a week, plexes respawn once a week, sov change once a week and crippling (and I mean can't log at all over the 5600 solar systems) by day 3 etc etc.
no DT I'm not sure eve would still be playable after 48h

Given how freely the Aussie gov't bans games, DT should be the least of your worries.

------------------------------------------------------- Move to California. ------------------------------------------------------- when filling out the visa application for the U.S there was a form that looked like a voting slip that i had to answer 12 true or false answers by punching out holes on the card. after several week i recived this response
"sorry due to your ability to fill out a punch card correctly your visa application has been rejected as this would greatly impeed out voting system should our population gain the ability to to fill out election ballots correctly."
guess us ozzys are to smart to move to the U.S

I've told you a billion times not to exaggerate.
OP: If you're that desperate, I'll trade with you. You come live in the UK and I'll move to Aus.
I'm sure my gf and I can find something to do during the 1 hour of DT.

I am speaking in partial ignorance here. As a two year player of EVE, I have never experienced a "rollback". I attribute this to daily one hour downtimes.
Other MMOs I have played don't have scheduled downtimes. When things do go down the forums are flooded with cries of "Give me money for my downtime", which when worked out mathematically, usually comes to around 50 cents. People don't think of that I guess.
The other thing that has been known to happen with these unexpected downtimes is the rollback. Imagine all your hard grinding down the tubes because the game is reset to a previous state? It's maddening.
I like EVE the way it is. Real time skill training. No rollbacks. Thank you.

I thought downtime was taking at least 16 hours a day.
It does at least for me, I wish CCP fixed that Work and Sleep thing....
