I would like to ask ccp admins few questions, as fellow unix/linux admin, regarding administration of eve servers.
1. Could you clarify one hour maintenance every day, please? All servers can be managed on-the-fly. Do you use something special which needs switch off servers everyday?
2. Despite, you have everyday maintenance, quality of service doesn't reflect this maintenace. Database crash all the time, weird things going on with eve interaction. Perhaps, ghost in the machine?
I would also appreciate if you restrict multi-account players in login queue. I have got one account and cannot login??? It is happening to me very often that I cannot login. 10,000 players x 5 account each. How should one enjoy eve if there is so many restrictions to really enjoy this game.
It is nice that you are working on graphic FX and so on, but you still not fix font size issue. Do you all ccp guys still work on 14" CRT screens? I would appreciate if you once try to play on 22" + screen and let me know if you can read something from the screen at normal viewing distance.

i got to ask. does ccp even know what the hell they are doing. main site say restart 1500 now push back to 2300.
Damn CCP are you taken those extra 8 hours off down time out of everyone accounts. I hope not.
my planets were set to shut down 3 hours after restart now there not doning anything thanks for nothing.
Have you been playing for a week? If you do not know to square everything away for at least a week before down time: SHAME ON YOU.
Annowyn how long you been playing. bug off iam sick of pay for **** that ccp does and takes the time from our accounts and wastes it.
Side note over 2 years of playing this game i think i have to right now to ***** about them not sticking to the dead lines they set for restart and then still removeing that time from our accounts.
I know what it takes to do a move thanks. As allway CCP DRops the ball.

Ok lol 15:00 to 18:00 to 21:00 to 23:00 that is realy good time keeping :P they should take a page from the book of scotty! if they think they can do it in 6 hours they should tell us its gona take them 18 hours, that way if they're prediction of when they will finish is wrong ( which it always is ) we wont notice, AND if they finish before the bogusly long time they told us we will think they are miricle workers! so basically, to everyone who thought they would be flying internet spaceships tonight (myself included) check in tomorrow and see if they're finished by then, go watch TV or read a book, im gona read my Dawn of War : Blood Ravens novel  have fun all !

Everyone, who is complaining about that extended Downtime: STFU, HTFU and gb2wow!
Err, how about NO.

Let me guess, you've been playing for 3 years and are now an expert at managing CCP hardware transfers.
Originally by: Tatjana Dragonfyre
It is a fact that we all WILL benefit from the major improvement of the servers stability, response times and capacity.
Speaking from experience, your "WILL" is a "MIGHT" on all of the above

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!
IMHO, I only hope that the server works as well as it did before the physical move ....

Well thanks for messing up my skilltraining scheme!
Never thought from 9:00 till 15:00 would take 8 hours more!

Seriously, I've been here for a few years and seen several upgrades, patches and whatever else needed a downtime.
They've never been within the originally planned window and people should have thought about that when they decided what skill to train. I have 15 days left on my training so am not too fussed. If you have a training that finishes only a few hours after the originally planned window ends then you can make a note for the next time to not do that again ;)
I rather wait a few more hours and have a working system then a lag fest everytime we hit PB with a large fleet.
Just my 2 cents.

Then it will be a learning experience for the n00bs that CCP never, ever meet their posted up times. Also, if they completely filled their training que, most likely it goes beyond 24 hrs and should most likely be okay. I have no sympathy for anyone who didn't do that at a bare minimum.

Simple answer - don't have the people working on the project be responsible for managing it - time for CCP to cut the profit margin a bit and hire another PM that can put contractors, budgets, and schedules in line.

Hello all,
We have successfully moved our Tranquility servers to their new location, and Tranquility is scheduled to return to service at 23:00 UTC. Our original plan was to have the Web sites and Tranquility returned to service at 15:00 UTC, however, during the move we discovered network and SAN switch issues, which resulted in an extended service return delay. We have resolved those issues, and are working on returning Tranquility to service as quickly as possible.
Thank you all for your patience while we undertook this necessary server move. For more information about the move itself, please check out CCP YokaiÆs dev blog .
Update #1: EVE Gate is tied to Tranquility and will be down until TQ returns to service.
Update #2: We are investigating an issue with the EVE Store, and are working on re-enabling the API.

To all the whiners asking for compensation: You're asking for .50. Really, that's what you paid & lost today...GET OVER IT ffs, bunch of impatient kids moaning on the boards. Get a life go outside, play your Xbox, PS3, or whatever.
Much <3 to the guys & gals @ CCP. CCP let the hamsters take the day off while they got their new offices sorted out. What did the hamsters do you ask during this off time....They got ****faced watching the world cup. Drunk hamsters = no Eve.

upgrading that much hardware is a witch with a huge B. Quit the griping or CCP might decide to charge for the next expansion...
I don't know any other MMO out there that gives free expansions,lets you skill up while logged off, pay for the game with ingame currency, and lets the player base know whats going on.
If you don't like STFU and go back to WOW

i think the PLEX should be 31 days not 30 as there is 30 hours at least you can't play eve and thats on a non extended downtime month, so that 30 hours could be added on to plex even just for a day
And so they just increase the cost. You're buying 30 days of gameplay time with the D/T factored in.

Why do U cheat us telling firs that it will be 15, than 18, than 21, now 23...
Just be sreious. And tell: WHEN???
These time scales are always estimates and when it goes wrong all you can do is give your best guess. If you thought that these estimates were definite then it just shows how clueless you are.
He is not clueless, you are, by attacking him instead of ccp. These are computers, and they are predictable if you have a clue about them, unlike my old neighbour who thinks that computer hates her.
CCP got problems because they didnt have a clue into what they will run in when migrating, no expereince, no clue plus using microsoft software.
CCP pls it is already hard enough to justify paying for game in which you waste your remaining life hours trying to achive something, so pls keep servers up or you leave us with nothing to do,
when we have nothing to do we start to think (at least some of us), and thinking usually makes you quit playing, cause we already started to play not to think about something else in a first to place, full circle
And btw, I find CCP name offensive (crowd control something), should I file petition ?
CCP does not respect player, they just figured that there geeks out there who will pay money to lvl up in universe.
Nomen est omen
I am fine with that for the moment (except the name).

I'm sure they have the right people on the job or they wouldn't be doing maintenance. and be patient it takes time to do the job right. but where is the free isk for all this waiting. hmm....
In the professional IT world, you don't exceed your time window. Professionals have a Implementation, validation, and back out procedures. If work can't be done in the Maintenance window as work is moving along, the backout procedure is executed, and back to the drawing board it goes to diagnose what went wrong. Then again, CCp can only be as professional with what income they make with us users. I don't know their financial situation, but I'd like to think as EVE grows, they would spend more income on folks with more experience with network/server migration and efficiency. It can be quite costly, but at the same time, downtime would be waaay less than this with a developed plan with the appropriate rescources onboard.

Could not connect to the specified address. Odds are that you have not established an internet connection, the server isn't running, or the server address or port number was wrong.

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.
You do realise that an EVE day is only 23 hours long.

I don't want free days. If I wanted that, I'd cancel my account and had ALL days free.
I just want to be sure, CCP improves not only hardware, but sets a project management in place, that is worth its name.
And I'm sick of IT freaks explaining why things don't work, no other business has excuses established like that - they just ask for solutions.
