I've been playing online games for close to 20 years. Started out with Ultima Online, then moved on to Asheron's Call.

When ever AC would be "updated" (each month) there would server downtime, then once the servers were up, it was a race to see what new quests were introduced and to see who could finish them first.

Then the next day, the servers would go down for an emergency patch to fix an exploit. Then the next day, a patch was put on the patch to fix the bug that was introduced to fix the first bug (and so on)

One time the game was down for close to 2 weeks. You can just imagine the complaining that was going on about that. The devs did give up compensation, some times it was free XP (experience points) or what they would call pack dolls (miniature versions of the monsters in the game that you could carry around in your pack, they would just walk around.

I ensure you, the Devs for EvE are working as hard as they can to get the game up and running.
