Its not DDOS, it an excuse for bad server setup. DDOS is saved for a critical time, not wasted on server reboots. Naughty CCP.

All this man-baby rage reminds me of the hordes of screaming nobodies demanding via petition that the ending of Game of Thrones be changed. Seriously, here’s some real talk for you - it’s not your creation. You don’t get to say what content gets added or removed. You didn’t contribute in any way, shape or form - you sat on your unwashed arse and waited for other people to make you something.

Your payments for omega time and PLEX have convinced you that your purchasing power is equal to or greater than the creator’s’s value. Reality check - IT’S NOT. Your options are: either pay money to play the game, or not.

Jesus christ… well, I’m glad all of this is happening on Monday morning and not Saturday morning, at least. Good luck to all the involved CCPers.

I don’t understand those unsuccesful smalltooled hackers, why the heck they dont play solitaire instead… Also, dont care of the stoopids who are bragging about the delay, i am sure they never wrote even a 20 goto 10 like piece of code in their life, they cant imagine how hard your work is. Just keep it up please, and let us log in when you finished the repairs!

oh boy. man your view on life must be pleasantly simple, good / bad…black/white.  
16 year old game, with changing staff…most people who wrote the codes from 10 years ago…dont even work at ccp anymore…it started as a niche game with not too much funding…  
unlike blizzard who put a couple of billions into wow when it came out in 2006 ( ?)

so eve is established on an unpolished very wobbly base…and every addition and changes, make that whole construct of spaghetti/legacy code even more instable…

only solution is, live with it…or play something else.

complaining about something that cannot be easily changed, doesnt help a ■■■■.

No, why should we? It took them only a short downtime to completely mess up EVE for everyone in the name of “fighting bots”. Now, if you read between the lines in the Blackout Concludes dev blog, they accuse everyone of being bots. In addition to that they also broke the chat when they rectified their mistake from 66 days ago. They do not need a break, they need better work ethics and quality assurance.

Self entitled man babies all upset over the black out ending I guess. Maybe some jail time would set a few of them straight. I wonder if they could handle it? It does cost a bit to put an end to something like this.
