As other posters in this thread have stated, some more eloquently than others, we are not in a position where we can reimburse skillpoints lost as a result of patch deployment. We do what we can to give sufficient advance notice of patch days and have encouraged the learning skills with long training durations for as long as I can remember.
Unfortunately, we cannot control issues which limit connectivity to the server, such as may be caused by an ISP or server code which could not be verified on the test servers due to the differences in server hardware, load, code, etc. between Singularity and Tranquility.

So CCP - do we get our skillpoints back for your screw up? I would assume not because it's 'too much work'.
The server was down for less than two hours, even if you have perfect learning skills and +5 implants we're talking about 5k SP. Is that really worth this giant whine? If you left the country while the server was unexpectedly down and will now loss a million SP that would be different this, this is a waste of our time.
It is 'too much work.' If they do it for you they have to do it for everyone and the time it would take to figure out who lost how much and then reimburse it would take hundreds if not thousands of hours away from devs that could be fixing, improving and expanding this game. If I have a choice between 2k SP and no more desync or drones attacking the indicated target or even a better looking interface I'll take any of those over the insignificant amount of SP you're wining about.
Grow up or better yet, go play WoW!

Good thing I'm not getting paid by you then. And I lost more than two hours... I had to go to sleep so I lost a whole night's worth. Yayay say what you will, but that doesn't change the fact that I'm not a happy player at the moment. As soon as another company comes out with a half decent space MMO, I'll be leaving so you can all go back to your caves, worshipping the great god that is CCP.

At least they show more respect for you than you do for them at the moment. You even got a dev reply in your thread, despite it being total bullcrap. And you just keep on whining.
Yes, they are better than you.

This... right here.. says a lot. I'm supposed to quake in my boots when Dev posts in my thread? I don't care if a dev posts in my thread. It doesn't make me feel "special" or something. What - now I'm supposed to quietly slink away and think all is good because I got a canned response?
Mmk fanboy. Keep on keepin' on i guess.. Devs, you can lock this thread. It is served it's purpose. You are more aware now that players are not pleased with the way you patch without testing than you were before. Thank you.

No, all it would do is change the whiners song. People will ALWAYS complain, regardless of how good they have it.

I'm going to have to stop you there, chief. The only "screwing up" I see is your mistake of posting this blithering nonsense hoping someone would agree with your half-baked complaints.
Maybe it's time to sign up for an MMO that more appropriately matches your special needs.

Wait. Are you telling me you scheduled a skill change on a patch day? The smart thing to do whenever you hear someone even mentioning the words 'patch' and 'day' in the same sentance you set your longest skill you have...
I think this site has what you need...

Originally by: FuQue So ya - another whine thread. But seriously - if CCP screwed up, why is it always their paying customers that have to suffer the consequences? I lost a lot of skillpoints with the server being down last night, but on top of that, I had a training schedule planned so that I could change skills when I had free time. That's gone to hell now too.
So CCP - do we get our skillpoints back for your screw up? I would assume not because it's 'too much work'.
Just imagine you would have joined Eve two day after you did. -----

Welcome to eve online :)
I'm not going to call you a whiner, but instead give advice. It's up to you if you want to accept it or not.
WHEN CCP SAYS TRAIN A LONG SKILL, TRAIN A LONG SKILL. The day before patch days I set a minimum of 4-5 days skills. And don't change them back to short skill when you log back on. Wait for a couple of days until you are sure.
Survival of the fittest said Darwin. Not the strongest or the one with most skill points, but the one who can adapt. Adapt, or for your own sake find another game.

Whenever I lose skillpoints due to my own stupidity or because of things beyond my control, I don't think its the end of the world. To be honest losing a ship is worse to me.

I try to have some empathy with most posters, understand that they can be a bit upset, need to vent, but you Mr Greedy came back for seconds, after what seemed a fair response. Can I encourage you NOT to wait for another game to come out, before keeping what I hope is a promise.
