xecutey	Posted - 2005.12.17 20:36:00 - [1] A GM said that on SiSi these problems did not occur and are due to the number of users on Tranquility. So obviously some memory leak or bug. Maybe not allowing access to trial accounts and capping the limit of players to stay under the pressure threshold would be a good idea at this point seeing as the game is unplayable and this may relieve the pressure for some time and atleast let some play hasstle free. If it don't work/help then no harm in trying it out anyway!
xecutey	Posted - 2005.12.17 20:49:00 - [2] Edited by: xecutey on 17/12/2005 20:50:04 I still feel it is best to let some play, rather than having everyone being able to connect but not being able to play! Also Trial users will be put off and will probabally not return if they are starting to play for the first time during all of this. Veteran users will understand this situation for a few days untill everything is sorted. I never played WOW but i remember them getting around there server workload problems in the same manner at the start. If they cap the limit of players maybe they can cap there time online to 12hrs or something too so people queued up can enter eventually. I know it is no ideal solution or situation to be in but at this point in time it seems the most viable way of doing things IMHO.

If it don't work/help then no harm in trying it out anyway! Dear Xecutey I am a trial user and about to subscribe 4 new accounts and start playing eve seriously. If i would find out that CCP would only let real money players in, i would be so mad that i would go and play some other game. CCP will or would never be stupid enough to let only paying customers in, that would be a very bad business move, so you can forget it. Also you are very self centered person, and you don't give much tought to others, i know you are pay fot the services, but so will many trial users and when the trial users convert to real users, CCP can get better server upgrades etc... Some times you need to think about others too, and you should have some patience, i know how hard it is when you can't play and stare your monitor... Think about others too, like others think about you. Your comment has been very stupid in my opinion. If you are buying 4 new accounts then why would a stop on trial users for a few days affect you? How am i self-centered? i am only trying to come up with a solution as the problem between sisi and Tq seems to be over population. If so, then who do you think should have a higher privledge on access? Also new trial accouNT users will take this bad period as being 'normal' and would never continue to play or buy the game, so i nthe end it does them better as they can see the game in its full glory when its been fixed. So dont come all that cr*p with me! Please resize your signature so that it is smaller than 24000 bytes. Jacques'
xecutey	Posted - 2005.12.17 21:49:00 - [4] Originally by: Sideon De'Sinatra true, maybe we could get even better stability by blocking the paying customers since there is more of them and only allow trial accounts in. This way trial users are happy and everyone else too! As if that makes sense for a company to do! Lets stop all income to our business from our consumers! god your either extremely thick or trolling as i expect! Anyway i'm off for awhile, so feel free to troll around abit more.

xecutey	Posted - 2005.12.17 21:56:00 - [5] Originally by: Deja Thoris A cap on paying customers? Thats quite simply a terrible idea. even for a few days untill things are sorted and everyone can play? instead of everyone joining the server and no-one being able to play? Atleast some peeps would get some play-time! Anyway now i really need to go out, need my ciggies! Please resize your signature so that it is smaller than 24000 bytes. Jacques'
