*looking at Commander Jones with much distaste while preparing a glass of La Fee*
It would seem that our aspiring young Internet expert Commander Jones, who lives in Holland, has become the de facto expert on American ISP's and their offerings. Pourquoi est-ce que je ne suis pas stupÚfiÚ Ó son Úpanchement de la connaissance? La rÚponse est espace libre de cristal : il est plein de sa propre merde innÚe!
*a wicked grin touches his face while sipping absinthe*
Commander Jones, I heartily agree with a previous reply to this forum string made by The Architect, and I find the revelation you've made (in your ludicrous assertions concerning American ISP offerings) most deliciously amusing! You've shown yourself to be firmly in possesion of ONE brain cell (vous pauvre enfant retardÚ avec des couches-culottes pleines de la merde) and inbred, in one mighty outpouring of infantile chatter! How sardonically quaint.
*chuckles while sipping absinthe*

Horribly outdated internet???
Last I checked, Europe was wayyyy ahead of the states, man... I live in little old Denmark, where practically everybody gaming has at least 256/256 - most are actually on broadband... just got back from the US where I spent an agonizing 2 weeks on 56k *shudder*
Kid, just because scandinavian countries are on top of ****e that does not mean all of Europe is.
Also, broadband (adsl,dsl) is just the broadband of poor people, try cable, then laugh.
And EVERY gamer in the us that plays online and does not live in the STIX has cable internet.
Boardband > Cable
Check the figures out for yourself.

As for 4 hours of drivel, well, i've posted 2 items (now 3 with this) on the forums in the entire day - week even, so Im hoping that you're not taking 4 hours to read it.
Nah, just generalising myself 
As for this extended downtime, I would just like to add my own worthless opinions:
I dont like some of the things in the patch but I guess thats my problem. But, in saying that, i'd rather they take ALL day to get this right than rush it and find half the community complaining of CTD's after the last patch or something else. Sure for me and people like me, this is a right pain. I sit and stare at this screen or my TV in the other corner, but i'd rather face this boredom than lose my ship to a CTD like last time. 5 hours waiting here isnt as bad as mining for 2 weeks to replace the last loss. Unlike alot of others, I didnt come here and moan about my loss due to bug, I didnt even petition it (knowing that replacements are few and far between) I just fitted the old miner 1's and got my arse in gear.
So enjoy the wait, and pray that its because they want to get it right, not wrong like last time.

Reason for extended DT:
Young CCP office boy Jim, was told to delete the server's cache folder, but deleted the Eve Server Directory instead, forcing CCP to reinstall the game.
Hehe, that was a joke btw... woohoo server starting in 488 sec's. :) |

** extra rolleyes removed (because they're retarded, retard.) **
Well done.
If you need someone to explain to you the difference between something that occurs on your PC and something that is being transmitted to your PC, convo me. If you can work out how to.
Or you could explain to everyone why I am wrong, and how great and knowledgable you are.
Or you could get bent.
The ball's in your court, trollboy.

What makes you think I dislike microsoft? I said nothing to indicate that, and I did nothing to say I dislike America. I *do* like America, and I *do* like MS. If not for them, I'd be unemployed. I actually appreciate their OS's. And I don't think PC's would be anywhere near where they are today had it not been for MS.
And what makes you think I dislike fast food?
I *do* dislike cabbage, mayo, and corned beef though.
But save the hostility for someone who deserves it. Thanks.

[[Hey we have to put up with your HORRIBLY OUTDATED internet connections that caused CCP to CAP the bandwith, so the least you can do is to put up with patching during your day.
MUHAHAHAHHA]]
-
Err, CCP chose the London Docklands hosting complex known as "Telehouse" to host Eve because it's the best complex in Europe, and not a single Non-Government owned facility in the US is better. They're directly connected to 2 main POP's, each carrying 6GBps bandwidth, and in turn, they're connected to the main Trunk line that trawls the deep depths of the Atlantic, buried at the bottom. And that line's 255GBps by the way.... so no.. no cap there you idiot.
[[Kid, just because scandinavian countries are on top of ****e that does not mean all of Europe is.

-
Again, hate to break this to you, but most of central Europe actually considers the US behind, and there's not much of a difference between "core" EU countries eg France, UK, Germany -- and the rest which has supposedly "superior service". When you can get SDSL 4096kbps/4096kbps services for the average Euro monthly rate, and not have to pay the equivalent of renting satellite bandwidth, let me know. And i'm not asking you to go and find ONE provider that is installing it into newly built housing estates, i'm talking about several companies leading to at least 90% availability for all population centres, and 75% to everywhere else...
As for Cable being superior to DSL lines... er no. ADSL and Cable are much of a sameness. They both succomb to the same problems, ie signal degredation, user contention rations due to the companies being too tight arsed to install decent infrastructures blah blah. The only reason you dont see this so much with Cable is that it's a hell of a lot easier to stick signal boosters at every network node to hide the problem. As for Cable being faster... every single ADSL provider in the UK can match the speeds of Cable providers. But concluding the Cable vs DSL, DSL overall whoops Cable's ass, due to the wonderful thing that is SYNCHRONOUS DSL (SDSL). Equally complemented upstream/downstream rations. Because of the way Cable physically works, and due to packet protocols, you will NEVER get this with Cable, and for that reason alone, it sucks ****.
[[There is a link on slashdot.org today that will end all argument over who has the crappiest net.
And its the US by a LONG WAY!!!
Only ex russian countries have poorer take-up and speeds than the US.
Argument over -*****y yanks get it handed to them again :P
At least it wasnt by one of your own for once - friendly fire dont exist on the net :P]]
-
LMAO - too true
[[Edit: Btw, maybe we're not familiar with /all/ European countries because they're in some cases the size of our smaller states, or in some best cases are county sized. When you can cross through 2 countries in 2 hours via train, it gets a little confusing to us. Considering it takes days to get across some of our states via automobile or via train]]
-
That has to be one of the weakest arguments/excuses for ignorance i've seen in quite some time! I salute you sir. Yes. that's right.. when I next claim not to be able to tell an American all 50 States i'll be sure to include the excuse "Well you're so damn big.. and there's so many of em.. I just loose track"...
[[Ok, I wish that Europe got off their pedistall, which is old and decrepit, and that the US stopped being so damn arrogant in its bigotry.
We could achieve so much more working TOGETHER.
(the above statement is intended overall, I know here you are all open-minded illuminati)
ps. I am aware of how hypocritical this sound being that I was *****ing about the european connections in the first place.]]
-
Too ******* right it's hypocritical, at least have the good manners to stfu and sit down when people turn around and ***** because you tried to stir things up. It's a shame you couldn't find it in yourself to say this from the BEGINNING
