I noticed last time there was an extended downtime for upgrades there was never an offer by CCP to accomedate the members who do actually subscribe to the service. Payed for 30 days and got 29. Just curious if we are still going to be billed for the 30 days or the 29 as a result of this even more extended downtime... :)

I doubt it. If they were down for 2 or 3 weeks then maybe they'd consider it, but a single day isn't a big deal...especially since they warned us it might be an extended downtime. ----------------------------------- You will be assimilated...bunghole! |

I was ready for some Problems to come up during this time frame. So i trained a skill that would go 5-6 hours past the Deadline. Now my Skill is no longer training so im training nothing. I would like to log in and start training a new skill so ive waited patiently, I pay to play the game but now my time is being waisted. Blizzard gives credit for days when they have problems with their servers and no one can play world of warcraft. Did i make a mistake by leaving blizzard to come to this? EvE subscribers should get a days credit, if not for our missed day of playing time then for the "exclusive offline training" time that people havent been able to take advantage of.

I am expecting a 1 or 2 day credit added to my account, CCP is very good about this sort of stuff. in the past when they have run this late they have always added a day or 2 to everyones account.

They even adviced you in the news to train a long skill, Adreanna. Don't think they have any obligation to refund you in this case.

I absolutely agree, I am not so much concerned about the skill but the fact i paid no matter how long i should be refunded in game time or money. I forgive the everyday gametime downtime since i am usually sleep at that time anyways.

When they say "train long skills", they mean LONG skills. Not a few hours past deadline, but a couple of days.
However, we should be getting a day back from CCP due to Mr. Murphy's unwanted visit.

Given that they've now passed the 5:00 deadline, I'd like to see something updated as to the expected time the servers will be up...that should have been posted at 5:01!!

I don't really want a payment credit. But something to address lost skill training would be appreciated.
I even set a skill to train during the originally scheduled downtime. But the extended downtime has gone well over that and it's going to be morning here before I can get back online to set another skill training.

There's a reason I set a 6 day skill to train. Even if it takes all weekend, I'm covered.
Although I agree, if the servers are out of commission for longer, than say, 12 hours, a credit is in order.

I'd guess some of them went home to sleep a bit *lol* Well, Well...I was training a 3 days skill....but I'm going on vacation now and wanted to switch to a 26 days skill...
But then...new hardware hopefully means increased playability and less lag...which means more fun which means all that downtime is all fine...
But then...its not nice to not update run out deadlines and leave all us addicts to our withdrawl symptoms... Speaking of that....sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep time... Oh and yeah, I'm talking a lot of crap right now...
Like...
I wanna be a Space Pirate !!!
Eh well...everyone have a good time and don't give CCP too much crap, they try to upgrade the game for everyone of us ;)

Blizzard continues to credit people for situations such as this one. Such credits have been issued within the last week.
People pay for a certain number of days and they should get to play a certain number of days. I'm sure CCP will make this right once they have actually put the downtime behind them and gotten some sleep. Working 24+ hours straight under extreme pressure with no end in sight is no fun at all. They have my sympathy.

They did warn you to set a long skill. I gambled that the upgrades wouldn't take more then 15 or 16 hours and picked accordingly because the skill was far more valuable then any more then 1 day skill i could currently train. Guess we'll see if the gamble pays off still got some time left ;>

I actually play this for about 1~1.5 months yet, so I didnt know what a 'long' skill would be. But its a pity Im not training anything now, Ive to agree. But about refunding... Well, I really dont care, it would be very nice of CCP if they would, but I can live without the refund to be honest. I dont know what to think about it . Something is just going wrong, well, it happens .

They just do that to you on your server. If there are major server issues on my server we are refunded a day, Period.

Yeah cuz our server is down constantly its Mannoroth one of the problem servers so if they refunded us for all the AQ40/BWL constant lag and Manno crashes they douldn't have made any money in the last month heh. We're not the only server either. Maybe some GM's play on yours.

Don't get me wrong. I love CCP from the day that i put in a GM ticket and got a response in the first 3 minutes. But would you pay full price for a movie ticket to only get the see the last 5 minutes??

Well, I for one think we should get a free day. I am not missing out on skill training but the servers have been down for a loooong time now. We had lots of problems when I first started playing and everyone got a day credit, this has been lacking lately even though there have been more issues. Come on CCP you know it makes sense, we haven't been able to play the game for aproaching 24h now. This extended DT has meant that any European working a 9-5 job basn't been able to play for a day, let's get the day back.

Oh. My. God. NEWBIE! How much Product, Do you use!?!?
I was hoping that I wouldn't see a thread such as this when the forums came back online.
I'm going to have to say this as bluntly as I can without getting offensive and having my post deleted.
IT IS A GAME!!!
So what if you pay $15 a month to play it... If you weren't paying to play this game, then these Hardware upgrades wouldn't happen... Nor would patches or any sort of Technical support for that matter.
If you people are going to cry about an extra few hours in the scheduled 'extended' downtime when you were warned that it may take longer, then perhaps you should think about how much EVE is actually controlling your life.
I didn't even get to put a skill on to train during the Extended Downtime due to Internet issues... Do you hear me crying about it? No. Why? Because it's just a game.
I am glad to pay the $15 a month to play this game, Unexpected extended downtimes and all. I don't want CCP to accomidate me because there were issues.
I'M HAPPY IN THE KNOWLEDGE THAT EVE WILL COME BACK AND THAT I CAN CONTINUE TO PLAY!
So really, to make a long post short.
Sit Down, Shut up and stop *****ing about a whopping 44cents lost in your monthly payment. It's even less for those that pay in 3,6 or 12 month payments.
I don't expect this post to last long, but honestly... I can't believe you people are actually *****ING about THIS of all things... You people need to get laid, seriously...
