By erasing the entire game during downtime, and not having any backup.

Jeebus ... no DR backups, what in the world were those folks thinking? Wonder if CCP has enough of a foresight to have DR backups housed in separate geos (in case London's totally nuked).

After boot.ini, the rate they must be making backups would be rival to none other than the Svalbard Global Seed Vault. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

secondly, wtf:

*cough* *coughhh* You really think so? Haven't heard/read anything from their infra boffins regarding DR planning, for all we know, most (if not all) of their eggs are in the London cluster.

My point was that CCP has pretty much always been on top when it comes to maintenance. More so than ever. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

or for that matter one of the whole, ah I cant remember what theyre called, all the realms that connect together on battlegrounds - cause ALL the realms dont share a BG. Theyre broken up.

it would be funny. but I think an entire wow gattlegroup going down permanently would probably clean the gene pool a little with people committing suicide after their 10+ level 85 all raid geared/arena geared characters disappeared. you might say that not many people have that, but I personally know 6, and am really disappointed at knowing them. |

At first I doubted this was even true because it's so unbelievable, now I'm thinking that there is more to this story than this. Sabotage? I mean... no backup? Unthinkable |
