Jag Hiroshii	Posted - 2007.12.24 11:15:00 - [1] After all these years .. are we ever going to see 24 hr uptime? 11 am - 12 GMT downtime is such a pain in the backside. I'm sure the original plan was to phase this out. Meh wife always decides that she will go and do something on her own at that time .. but there's no Eve to play with cry

Darwinia Minmatar	Posted - 2007.12.24 11:20:00 - [3] They tried. The results are better left lost in the shadows of time. Seriously. Don't ask. ------------------------ I don't believe in sigs.

SoftRevolution	Posted - 2007.12.24 11:27:00 - [6] You can't amuse yourselves for one hour? EVE RELATED CONTENT
Terraform Gallente Gemini Sun Knights Of the Southerncross	Posted - 2007.12.24 11:32:00 - [7] I love you people! <33
Jag Hiroshii	Posted - 2007.12.24 11:34:00 - [8] Sure I can amuse myself for an hour .. but selfishly I want the game to be up at a time convenient to me. Shove the downtime period to the middle of the night GMT so the US can enjoy the downtime period during the day for a change .. after all, they're just as capable of amusing themselves for an hour as us Euro folk.
Richard Phallus	Posted - 2007.12.24 11:36:00 - [9] Originally by: Jag Hiroshii Sure I can amuse myself for an hour .. but selfishly I want the game to be up at a time convenient to me. Because xmas time is the time for selfishness! ...

Because xmas time is the time for selfishness! ... and also the time for self-agrandisement apparently ... oh wait .. I forgot to imply some moral superiority by adding some of these in .. That's better.
Nova Fox	Posted - 2007.12.24 12:05:00 - [11] TBH i would love to have this game run every day instead of every hour, No downtime hour = downtime weeks later on.

Somehow I don't see the folks in london who would have to do the downtime maintenance agreeing with your point of view.

I'm sure the original plan was to phase this out. Meh wife always decides that she will go and do something on her own at that time .. but there's no Eve to play with cry Use the one hour the servers are down for something neccesary. Shopping, get laid, eating, showering, calling in sick, rest.. etc. Honestly, its only one hour! The servers have to go down for some critical maintainance. I am sure we all will survive the one hour the server is down. At least now in the christmas time Originally by: Abrazzar OP needs to delete his boot.ini.
James Swindle Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.12.24 12:53:00 - [15] People who feel the need to play EVE 24/7 obviously need to get out more to be honest.
Theo Samaritan Gallente Pheonix Reborn	Posted - 2007.12.24 12:55:00 - [16] Originally by: James Swindle People who feel the need to play EVE 24/7 obviously need to get out more to be honest. Or have a macro. -------------- Templars do not tank Jita so well without a steady supply of Cake.
Zhett Haukes Mutually Assured Distraction	Posted - 2007.12.24 13:26:00 - [17] I go shopping in the d/t, its useful in that respect.

Somehow I don't see the folks in london who would have to do the downtime maintenance agreeing with your point of view. They wrote this game to appease their London ops guys - or for the enjoyment of MMO gamers? Seriously though - I'm not really expecting them to ***** around shifting downtime - but they were talking about 24/7 operation initially so I was just curious. The timing could be better from a European perspective. Just think of all the useful things you could do though in that hour .. like pod Richard Phallus .. say - 20 times or so.

Here a teddy son So when the game launched - CCP touted the idea that one day it would go 24 hr without downtime. What's the problem asking about that? But no .... you have to launch yourself in there with the 'whiny child' spiel like you're important. Before I post next - remind me to cross reference the 'northwesten' guide to appropriate forum etiquette. I would hate to offend you again by posting a topic that offends your mighty stature - or post in a fashion that you find displeasing your highness. May I suggest that by removing the corn cob from where it's currently placed - it would make your stay at these forums more pleasing?
Cvuos GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2007.12.24 14:48:00 - [24] I suggest you treasure that single hour and use it wisely. Personal hygiene and/or ventures outside your door is highly recommended.
SoftRevolution	Posted - 2007.12.24 15:04:00 - [25] I assume it's a choice between scheduled DT and the servers falling over periodically. And really some of you guys need to get a book or something to read for an hour. EVE RELATED CONTENT
Taua Roqa Minmatar Eve University Ivy League	Posted - 2007.12.24 15:08:00 - [26] it is a common myth that the hours downtime is actually needed. It's there simply so people can load up eve mon and eve fit, and attach ever more expensive setups to frigate, create a ship template called 'mypwnmobiletitan' then worry porry over the 3.9 years their current skillplan will take. -------------------------------------------- Threads are stacking-nerfed; the more posts you add the less effective those posts are. mooooooo.
Crumplecorn Gallente Eve Cluster Explorations	Posted - 2007.12.24 15:29:00 - [27] I like the implicit assumption that always rises in these threads that people who want to play during what is now downtime are actually already playing the other 23 hours. - DesuSigs
James Swindle Caldari Caldari Provisions	Posted - 2007.12.24 16:03:00 - [28] You have a point but the OP is specifically asking for 24 hour gaming.

mill veters	Posted - 2007.12.24 16:18:00 - [30] one server =more mantanice, plus their needs to be some excuse for asteroids just poping up again,
Sangxianc Reikoku Band of Brothers	Posted - 2007.12.24 17:11:00 - [31] Originally by: Crumplecorn I like the implicit assumption that always rises in these threads that people who want to play during what is now downtime are actually already playing the other 23 hours. Truth, and put more succintly than I would have.
Gorefacer Caldari Resurrection	Posted - 2007.12.24 17:21:00 - [32] Originally by: Crumplecorn I like the implicit assumption that always rises in these threads that people who want to play during what is now downtime are actually already playing the other 23 hours. Me too, I guess people just enjoy belittling others when they see the opportunity arise. Funny how much more it happens over the internet and almost never in real life.

Shevar Minmatar A.W.M Ka-Tet	Posted - 2007.12.24 17:23:00 - [33] Well I remember CCP trying to reduce dt to once a week or so. Trust me that didn't work out... And quite frankly I'm happy to live in Holland and not in Australia, here DT falls at work time instead of prime time. --- -The only real drug problem is scoring real good drugs
Taua Roqa Minmatar Eve University Ivy League	Posted - 2007.12.24 17:25:00 - [34] Edited by: Taua Roqa on 24/12/2007 17:26:02 Originally by: Sangxianc Originally by: Crumplecorn I like the implicit assumption that always rises in these threads that people who want to play during what is now downtime are actually already playing the other 23 hours. Truth, and put more succintly than I would have. in extension to this i find it, 'innacurate', how people will value others lost game time (from dt or server breakage) as subscription cost/hours in a month, as if they play, or could play, for every single hour in a month. edited because i can't spell. -------------------------------------------- Threads are stacking-nerfed; the more posts you add the less effective those posts are. mooooooo.
Jake Thorium	Posted - 2007.12.24 17:26:00 - [35] If it wasn't for the hour downtime I would have no children at all, and then where would the next generation of players come from.
Lady Hades Caldari Bushido Warriors Clan	Posted - 2007.12.24 17:37:00 - [36] Makes me think. I like the downtime because the server is just coming back up when I'm waking up in the morning. Or it's been up for a few hours. Either way it doesn't bother me.
Helen Hunts Gallente Red Dragon Mining inc Red Dragon Industries	Posted - 2007.12.24 20:31:00 - [37] I figure it this way....those who can't bear to be away from EVE for even a single hour....probably aren't doing things that keep them in the gene pool. If such trends continue, these folks won't be passing on their genetic material to the next generation, possibly making the human species a little healthier. _______________________________ Mine da rocks, make more ships. Pop da rats, make more rigs. Sell da gear, make more money. Any Questions?
Daelorn State War Academy	Posted - 2007.12.24 20:48:00 - [38] What about a rolling DT that happens every 25 hours, then no one can complain Some days you will hate it, other days you will not even noticed we had the DT
