between 20,000 and 100,000 active subscription's, so between $300,000 - $1,500,000 dollars a month... Dam CCP lucky you are not bound by SLA's, with the amount of server downtime and Connection drops/lag u have been having of late, thats a lot of compensation. Iam not one to whinge, and i dont care if 50 thousound computer nerds flame this post, iam a business man in real life and as such i know what the word "service" means, unlike a great deal of people in this world.
You are so lucky this game is so dam good, but if things dont start getting better, well it wont matter how good it is. But between 300k and 1.5 mil a month,(thats only subscriptions) should buy us some sort of redundancy and an enjoyable player experience.
Thats my rant, see u all in game . . . . : ) : )

Edited by: Splagada on 16/08/2006 12:34:41 oh yes and the investment was null, not to mention the first meeting "hey guys ok we need about a million euros for a online game, which will be working in about 3 years" in 2000
i have the utmost respect for people who put their money where their mouth is. investing in an online game is worse luck than casino eheh
downtimes always happen, i beg you to try other games and see how they work -

I don't know what SLA's are, but I know the EULA we all accepted are pretty clear.

You think there is alot of Lag/connection drops???? the only times i ever see lag is after DT for about 20mins/during combat with 200+ people/Sunday evenings when the server is maxed out.
There are ALOT more crashes/lag in other MMORPG's (aka WOW in a busy server) and the support is no where near as good imo.

EULA's are only binding when playing this game. No EULA has ever stood up in a court-room to this day - Take Everquest for example. ________ Euphoria Released

It is far more than that. But then again, income <> profit.

Who cares, EULA says service ain't guaranteed. Nothing says it is. So OP's point is moot.

SLA != EULA
There is no SLA for this game, as such there is no legally binding agrreement to have the servers up 24/7 with no lag and no problems.
OP your wrong, whether or not your coming from a 'business' point of view it doesnt matter. This 'game' doesnt actually work like RL service industry.

I just feel sorry for the apostrophe! Not only abuse, but the clearest case of griefing I've ever seen. Leave the poor apostrophe alone. What's it ever done to you?

There's only one apostrophe in your post, and it shouldn't be there.

They have 130k+ active subscriptions. Anyway, compensation for few hours of downtime? My ISP wont give me anything if my indernet is dead up to 48 hours. My server host wont give me anything if my server dies for up to 24 hours (can be reduced to 60 min, but it costs 3x more). My cell phone company wont give me anything if my phone doesnt work for full day. My land line operator doesnt care unless service is interrupted for longer than 2 days. And I could continue... no one gives any compenstaions for small problems and short service downtimes. Unless its some big corporate contract where redundancy is well paid.

Things will remain the way they are unless they active subscribtions drop drastically.
They were working hard to fix the bugs (war declarations rofl) and bring new contect for the past 2 years to attract more players worldwide; and - they achived what they needed.
