Dude.

It’s not CCP’s fault some clown decides to hack into their servers lol.

Maybe direct the resentment to the hacker(s) instead?

Resentment? 🤣

It was a harmless joke about having to do the washing up because the game was down.

Importantly, my comment was originally in a completely different thread entitled ‘encountered an error while refreshing token’ which was later merged into this one. There was no mention of a DDoS attack at that time and I and the others that posted in that thread knew nothing more than every attempt to launch the game was met with that ‘encountered an error while refreshing token’ message.

Go white knight somewhere else where it’s needed.

I’ve been watching youtube all day, and just tried to click play on the launcher, and my game becomes non responsive. I’ve even closed my launcher, and logged back in, and clicked on play, and same thing. Yesterday I was on for a little while. I haven’t done anything to the computer sense yesterday. Basically what I’m saying is I can’t get into the game tonight.
