CCP screwed its infracture when they did "upgrade" to Microsoft sql database server, I never seen any serious database run on Microsoft product, not that there isn't any, but they for sure have extended downtimes or if they don't that means they just plan it three times longer than needed. I still remember that downtime beacause of database "upgrade", poor choice, especially when CCP can afford Oracle product. How on earth CCP did you manage to swallow that sweat talk of microsoft salesman lol, i guess database server was easy to use and has user friendly managmant tools :-P
everything is done in Stackless Python.. no SQL is needed.
The entire cluster system amounts to over 3TB of data... if the data is not moved, allocated and tested thoroughly before launch, something will break, causing more downtime. Plus, they've had to construct the room and hardware, config it, copy all data, boot and test in offline mode, which could take hours if we're honest as they have to test EVERYTHING.

Edited by: FaeVerite on 23/06/2010 21:27:40 Edit: I agree with BJK they are doing their best !! Major Move of everything to hopefully improve game and no one expects delays?? I am gathering even with my non-techno babble abilities this is a new system not thoroughly tried out. Maybe give them some slack. Trust me I have seen more down time in other online games. This is really not that bad.. this free plex wah wah .... LAUGH sorry seriously this is nothing. Now if the Whole system shift doesn't work in a day or two and comes crashing down around ears then yes ... got a legitimate ask for money back complaint.. IF YOU PAID with Cash NOT PLEX. LMAO!!
just my 2 cents

Why the hell aint it still working? I like compensations in my playtime because of the extended downtime. We pay for this game!

The only sin here is the time estimate.
They should know by now to overestimate the down-time, not underestimate it. Continually screwing with peoples' expectations is just foolish. |

Everyone, who is complaining about that extended Downtime: STFU, HTFU and gb2wow! There you can get free days blown up your ass until you explode. This is a game for real men (Insert Random ToolTime pun here) and real men don't complain! It is a fact that we all WILL benefit from the major improvement of the servers stability, response times and capacity.
Thank you CCP for this Server Upgrade, it was time for it. Whatever those Problems do while trying to pod you: Good Luck and may the schwartz be with you!

God, why do i even read these threads anymore, you guys are pathetic.
Its allways the same, why cant you calm down? Moving everything to a new place takes some time and im sure they are doing their best. Whining wont help.
What i find quite interesting in these threads though, is that allways people threat how they will leave and play some other game, noone ever says hes gonna _return_ to some other game. As everybody who ever had to deal with the support, bug hunting and information policy in basically every other online game knows how good CCP treats us. ^^
So why not relax, maybe play some flash game (i recommend Transformice or Robot Unicorn Attack) or read a newspaper? And why is there still nothing that sets content apart from signature? Is that intentional or technically imposible? |

well come on by now you should of learnt to expect downtime not to be like they say, it's like train service (never on time) lol but you should all know to put on a long extended skill training as i've never know extended to finish on time,
But this has to be a bad one i do agree with what people are saying, a day at least added to all accounts for the near 23 hours that people have not managed to play..
we do pay to play

I would have to agree with Miss ishii, getting 1 day isk credit to all is fair sense ccp cant seem to get stuff done right the first time.As well all can be making isk or kill other people ships.

You haven't lost any profit because noone else has been able to log on and trade either.
Jeez, do you people not even think about what you're saying before coming in here and moaning?

I found its been an excellent time for some EFT Warrioring, I came up with a loltastic fit for a Kestrel. Something always goes wrong, whether it be firewall rules, a cable plugged in the wrong place, a cluster that just won't boot up, a cable not plugged in at all, who knows. What is for definite is that the game will be back up.
Have fun.

Edited by: JediRobin on 23/06/2010 21:27:04 Isn't it about time we get reimbursed either in isk or account time for all these downtime's.
if you multiply 1 hour down every day plus all the unexpected ones plus updated and patches. 
CCP owes us all nearly a month credit.

I Snapped this picture of CCP Technical Team earlier
Also good work on the updating, to be honest it could be worse. They could be like Dice when Bad Company 2 was released and told us it would be down an hour which turned out to be a couple of days.
As for time estimation, i'm not to fussed about the wait but it would be nice to have a lil link in Eve to just small updates about whats going on.

I agree. If they said 23:00 from the beginning, none of these posts would exist.
They need to learn from ol' Scotty and how he kept his reputation as "a miracle worker":

I am use to IT projects coming in past due and over budget at my work... but you can always fire and hire another IT company to come in - then they will eventually end up past due and over budget as well.
For once I would like someone in the IT business to give an estimate - then a competent project manager to add 50% more time and 60% more budget before providing a quote.

Does anybody know what a human is? Funny thing is they make mistakes and everyone (everyone who isn't whining on this forum) knows that sometimes things don't always go as planned. Sure CCP is 8 hours late but they are doing this to make your time more enjoyable. Its about 580,000,000 isk for 60 days game time. So for about 8 hours of gameplay it's about 3 million isk, which isn't anything for people playing longer than a month. So all you guys need to quit whining and do something productive while waiting.
