Krasnij Okjabre Caldari Dark Knights of Deneb Against ALL Authorities	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [391] Originally by: Marcus Starr When Eve fails you, play Winterbells Could always try this for amusement value: Poor kitty I'm not a bad man. Really. Light is faster than sound... this is why some people appear bright until you speak to them...
Kwint Sommer	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [392] Originally by: Chipper Eliot Wow, alot of people complaining about a video game being broken on a Saturday night. Are we such big dorks that we need to sit at home on a Saturday night trolling forms waiting for a video game to start working? It's 8 o'clock on the Pacific Coast and my Saturday nights usually don't get going until 10 or 11...until then EVE!
Sohei	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [393] Originally by: Turbosi Nosral From the standpoint of a person just trying the game for the first time it's pretty pathetic. And seeing how this isn't an isolated issue I'll be hard pressed to come off my hard earned money for something that'll just irk me. Let me phrase it this way. If you bought a new car and it periodically died for no explanable reason would you be screaming at the dealership?!?! Damn straight you would. Sure they make hundreds of thousands cars every year so a few bad ones aren't a big deal. if CCP can't deliver a working package maybe they should rethink the cost to the user or develop a package that can deliver what they promise (or claim, tis the same to me) Then go play WOW. You're an @!$@ [fill in as you wish]. You know nothing about this game. You drop in and just start complaining, acting like you suddenly know about ANYTHING about CCP, what they've created, the game's mechanics, what it takes to maintain a game like this, let alone initiate a very complex patch, and how the whole thing. You haven't earned the right to be so incensed. There are others here not whining as much as you when they're the ones who have lots of RL cash locked into this game, have built a real life for themselves in the virtual world, and have geat understanding of this MMO. So play the game for a year -- at least. Plop down a subscription for all that time. And accure some real knowledge and bond with other corpmates -- then you can talk like you do above.
Gar Nomar	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [394] Originally by: BigDave I have to say, I am impressed with CCP's response to this issue. Multiple devs posting updates in the wee hours of Sunday morning, ISD allowing players to discuss what is going on without censorship, updates being made to the client startup info window... this is customer service and I thank you for it. Even while losing skill training (hint: how about an emergency skill queue that only goes in effect if the servers were down at time of skill completion), I am happier for the unplanned outage for the opportunity to see that CCP wubs us. Good work guys, I'm having a beer on your behalf! PS Now that you've shown your improved crisis response plan, you can start the server up already... no, seriously, I've got skills to train! No cencorship? Have you seen the number of posts that change or disappear in this thread? LOL
Antari Shiy Amarr	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [395] Originally by: Marcus Starr When Eve fails you, play Winterbells Interesting little minute killer ------------------------ Blink and you're dead ------------------------ I like the new HUD, am I the only one ?
MrR9 Eternal Pheonix Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [396] Originally by: Sniper920 Good to see you guys can moderate posts but not the server LOL how pathetic. (Go ahead and snip it to cover up how inconsistent the uptime on the server is to new customers) It is a CCP coverup conspiracy ....
LUH 3471	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:09:00 - [397] Originally by: Morgain dVher To some of you, consider checking this out : http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-addict22jun22,1,2104007.story?coll=la-headlines-business M interesting how about u start a topic about this i am to occupied looking at the timer 54321 54321 54321 Yep, you need to cut and paste the link . . . and read. it was a most enlightening read . . . i can find myself totally in there
Tareen Kashaar Jericho Fraction The Star Fraction	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:10:00 - [398] Sigh. Why does EVE always go down right before my skills are done? Gogogo, industrious dev worker bees! Fix it quick and I will love you long time :) And be assured of my solidarity... I'm on euro time as well. Lalala. --- WTS: Forum Signatures, price negotiable. Evemail me!
Grath Telkin Amarr Bottomfeeders Inc	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:10:00 - [399] Originally by: Chipper Eliot Wow, alot of people complaining about a video game being broken on a Saturday night. Are we such big dorks that we need to sit at home on a Saturday night trolling forms waiting for a video game to start working? Come on guys, cut CCP some slack, its 3 AM on a Sunday, there working as hard as they can. I don't know about the rest of you, but if it was me, in ICEland at 3 AM, I wouldn't get out of bed to fix the problem. I think the guys that got out of bed, and went into work to fix the problem are great, most companys would tell you that you have to wait till Monday. Thanks Guys. No, no slack at all. I pay to be here, and EVERY weekend its crashed for like 2 months now. As an adult, when do i have the most free time? the weekend. When do i get the most time on eve? the weekend When does EVE always screw up? the weekend Every single weekend for as far back as early spring, this friggin thing has tanked. WTF!?! Can you please stuff the new content in a box and ship it off to a dark place deep in the Congo and NOT EVER THINK OF DOING ANYTHING ELSE TILL YOU FIX YOUR JUNK
Simnir	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:11:00 - [400] god.. since my last post, i couldnt read the posts fast enough to keep up with the pages. anywho, thanks for responding to my stupidity on the time conversion. with all the help, i have come to find out that i am 4 hours behind this GMT thingy. as it being 11:09pm here, and they are calling for 3:25am GMT server restart, it helps now that i have a reference. thanks all.

Oriodus The Caldari Confederation	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:11:00 - [401] i've just noticed that i've received a html email from CCP - could this be anything to do with tonights server downfall?...the timing of the newsletter and the server database crash seems very coincidental!?!
Freaky Bare Blueprint Haus Hydra Alliance	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:11:00 - [402] I am afraid this whole thing is my fault. You see, 5 minutes before the crash I changed my skill from a 2 day skill to a 36 minute skill. I am dreadfully sorry for the inconvenience this has caused!

There are so many ways to get your point across... some are better than others... and some people don't know how to communicate in a civilized manner. -Nate
Igus Green Gecko Inc. Freelancer Alliance	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:11:00 - [404] Originally by: Marcus Starr When Eve fails you, play Winterbells Thats actually a very addicting game -- snip Your signature exceeds the maximum filesize (24,000bytes) and also the signature dimensions 400x120 pixels -TheDagda ([email protected])
orangeFool	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:12:00 - [405] Originally by: MrR9 the ppl complain yet they still play Giving players crap information about startup time is ********. I'd rather see "we are still working on it" posts with no times instead of guesses. Cup of tea anyone?
Jodie Amille Sadist Faction	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:12:00 - [406] Originally by: CCP Sharkbait Originally by: Aem Originally by: CCP Sharkbait Originally by: Aem Originally by: CCP Sharkbait Est startup : 2.30am GMT Would you guys for once get the time right, that would be 3:30am GMT, CLOCKS HAVE CHANGED. no, GMT time never changes.... Well then, since the servers are in the UK, announce that its going to start at 3:30BST! Therefore that would be relevant since we are now in BST and no longer GMT no, there are other people in the world that connect to the server which is the reason we use a time that does not change ......when it's online that is I feel bad for you guys. The amount of crap you take from the ignorant asshats and whiners on this forum are unreal. I'll say thanks for your hard work, Sharkbait. I know it's not fun being called in or being on call and how much it can put a damper on your day @ the people demanding reimbursement for dt..... grow up! ------
Zelrich	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:13:00 - [407] If only I had time to finish that mission and put on a longer skill :/ PS: Restart Failure kinda blows :( PPS: I agree that server failure during US Sat. night prime time is a major problem, hopefully they'll add some sa***uards to prevent it from happening again, but from now on I'll make sure on friday to train a skill that will last past the weekend! Lets hope the new server reboot works!
Barakis Drayden	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:13:00 - [408] I wish the server would hurry up lol...
Grendelsbane	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:13:00 - [409] We're scrambling to deal with the consequences of our systems being all ^&%$#ed up by Rev II already. CCP, I understand stuff happens, but we have more important things to do than waste hours watching you push the Est. restart time back in 15 minute increments. If you don't have a clue, say so.

We've sorted out the issues that affected us on the the 1st startup attempt and we are starting the cluster again. Erlendur S. Thorsteinsson Software Director EVE Online, CCP Games


Pelf Matagraph	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:14:00 - [411] Originally by: Ganre Sorc Originally by: Ga'len Originally by: Sniper920 You guys are nothing but a cluster f#@!!!!!!!!!!!! These guys run the largest Microsoft SQL server cluster in the world, with the largest MMORPG datacenter in the world with the most complex cluster farm in the world. On what are you comparing these guys? They are unique in what they have created. Compare EVE's stability to other MMORPG games out there that are half as complex and you will find that CCP is doing a better job than anyone else. At least they are actively letting us know that they are working on the issue, not waiting 2 days before acknowleging that there is an issue, like other companies out there (SOE comes to mind right off the top). Cut them some slack, it's frustrating, but remember, it's just a game. that's correct, largest SQL sever in the world, what you failed to mention is the SQL framework is not designed to handle such a load of data, perhaps, if they are having database instability, they should steer themselves away from MS products, like most serious programmers Please note, this is not a flame on the devs, they work hard, and for the most part, succeed in their efforts. I underestand what you are saying. Though I'd have questions about MySQL, Postgre SQL, or Oracle doing any better. I'm no Microsoft fan- in fact I'm a totally FOSS shop, 95% RHE4 and now some RHE5. I just wonder about managing the backend for a cluster like this. That's a whole can of worms with issues I'd love to have the opportunity to work on. I hate MS SQL. I think it sucks, scales badly, ... jeez I could go on. But I'm not sure the others would do better on this scale*. Most supercomputers that seem to get the comparison to EVE don;t do these kinds of database operations. They crunch numbers. There's a big difference.
Caia Gallente The Durandal Organization The Cyrene Initiative	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:14:00 - [412] Yay! Downtime = Disk Defrag night. And boy did my computer need it.

Ganre Sorc	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:15:00 - [417] Edited by: Ganre Sorc on 24/06/2007 03:18:44 Originally by: Esau Cairn Originally by: Ganre Sorc that's correct, largest SQL sever in the world, what you failed to mention is the SQL framework is not designed to handle such a load of data, perhaps, if they are having database instability, they should steer themselves away from MS products, like most serious programmers So, Ganre, when you say 'perhaps', are you speaking from a position of knowledge or complete ignorance.?. I mean, I work with large databases all day long and I wouldn't presume to judge whether the Eve DB infrastructure is borked. It's interesting that I'm not a 'serious programmer'. My division of the large financial institution has to handle time-sensitive information and if we're late in getting data out, we can be fined on the order of hundreds of thousands of dollars for every day we're late. Not sure what you're considering 'serious'. I, personally, find it hard to take you seriously. Tell us, honestly, which databases you've worked with, for how long, and for which levels of 'seriousness'. as to my experience, i have never needed to work with any DB that MS ACCESS couldn't handle, and you need to define large when you say large, how much Data is in the DB, and how often is that data accessed and changed? with that taken into account, also realize that MS software is infamous for failing under heavy load, and riddle with bugs, patches rarely acually fix an issue, but instead avert the problem.(also i work front end on the DB that runs my pet MUD, but have never had any trouble with it, and it's SQL)
Birfon Ell	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:15:00 - [418] Here's to cheering you on CCP, I'm sure you're working hard right now to fix the problems, I wish you success.

Really. that game is pretty hard.... i jsut cant hit the kitties even tho i REALLY WANT TO!!! MEOW
DerArt1st	Posted - 2007.06.24 03:16:00 - [420] okay, who bets the current "3:25am" will be 3:45, 4:00 and 4:25 until the server finaly restarts at 5:00am? ^^
