Seriously? this doesnt warrant an emergency DT? I hope so too, because this is unplayable in a null sec system with more than 10 people in it.
YES REBOOT NOW!!! |

Was?
Already been fixed?

Well it will be fixed tomorrow, cause obviously we didnt pay for the game to be played today.
Im sure I saw it when I bought PLEX, invalid on the 28th or any other day CCP thinks they can improve the game... |

(yeah it's long but still is the short version...)
We were fixing a bug, a minor one, which involved objects disappearing from the overview when you had specific filters active. For example if you activated "filter alliance from overview", your own and your mates' cans would disappear.
The code that takes care of standings in the UI is old and hard to deal with so we started on implementing a fix back in early December, with in mind that we would deploy it as soon as possible on to our test servers, after the overview had received extensive testing by internal developers of course.
What we did not not spot at that time was that the chat would also be affected by this change and we are still a bit baffled that the issue did not get spotted in internal nor public testing with the change implemented such a long time ago...
We investigated the possibility of doing a live deployment to get this fixed but the possibility of interrupting the service for too long was too great, so sadly the fix will need to wait until tomorrow downtime.
My sincere apologies for creating this mess.
Simply unacceptable Sir(s)
Service is effectively down already , there currently is nothing for you to interupt |

Hey we're all mad. But I'd love a DEVs reasoning for waiting till tomorrow to fix things.
These forums clearly show that a large part of the player base has no problem with an emergency downtime to fix this problem instead of waiting.
So why wait CCP? |

mind you why did CCP introduce the capability to switch them off? I'm very much hoping this 'bug' was an experiment to see how people would react to the idea. As expected no-one in high sec or low sec cares and null sec is devided between 'THIS IS AWESOME' and 'OH GOD I CAN'T UNDOCK!'. This was a triumph.
High sec cares (anyone who is at war)
Low cares (FW needs the same mechanics)
Just cause you think a certain way dont sweep everyone in High and Low into your corner. I am on the High sec part of this and you Sir are wrong. Standings are vital to this game.
