thank you for the update. good luck!

Thanks CCP Falcon, we know our space pixels are in capable hands :slight_smile:

Nice one your useless server held together with duct tape crapped out on everyone and my ship died…

Why even have it online if it’s that unstable… ridiculous game.

because lately they have been being hit by DDoS attacks - ever consider that it might not be a game issue?

yeah it sucks. :frowning:

the bad thing is that ccp doesn’t even give out SP compensation for downtime anymore.

Tons of lag but somehow didn’t get DCed or die.

I really don’t care if it is a DDoS attack, all I care about is that my ship died through no fault of my own.

OP is completely wrong, CCP has prime quality minmatar duct tape that can hold entire space ships together even during the stresses of warp travel. :slight_smile:

Yes, but you blame CCP - based on no information at all…
At least wait until you know before throwing your dummy out of the pram at them

ummm i spent all of tonight running events so id be very mad if i lost it all for nothing

I have no problem with people being mad - I just think that it stinks that the first thing people do is lay blame at CCP when there are many other things that could have caused the issue that CCP has no control over
Also - I had clicked to reply to the OP not you… (see I make mistakes too :P)

Better put: Move to the Eve is kill? thread. No sense in keeping multiple threads for the same issue.
