Open Petition to fix the random disconnects

Would you also be interested in people that didn’t have disconnects at the same time or on the same data node as datapoints?

For that you would need to sync evetime and give your solar system details…

This could maybe establish if it really is FC at fault or something else on the way to or including you home network and machine.

Just disconnects in general. Right now I don’t think we need to get that granular.

If it was an issue of to or from a user’s home network than we wouldn’t have this many responses from different players in (I’m assuming) different systems/nodes/etc but every little bit helps!

19:35 eve time, 4 people in local. 1 of 1 clients disconnected.

Anyone else?

Anyone from CCP/Fenris feel like adding their 2 cents here?

Try posting your question on r/Eve. :thinking:

:wink: :psyccp: :ccpguard:

As much fun as that sounds I’d rather post on 4CHAN lol.

Jokes aside I do appreciate the suggestion :- )

You can also post to discord

Fc stroopwafel among a few others are pretty active there

You could post into a text file on your desktop and the devs would be more active than they are on this, the official EVE forum.

What is the deal with FC making so little effort to communicate via and/or respond to issues on this forum? Have they stated a preference for Reddit and Discord? Seems absolutely bizarre that the official forum is a second-class cousin :-/

they are heavily on discord

I don’t recall FC ever officially stating that they prefer Reddit or Discord over the forums.

That being said, FC has addressed harassment and personal attacks against developers on these forums in the past. I wouldn’t be surprised if that plays a part in why some developers don’t engage as much.

There’s also a difference between not responding and not reading. FC has stated before that they do read feedback and pass it along, even if they don’t actively participate in every discussion.

Personally, I can understand why developers might be reluctant to engage when some discussions turn into personal attacks rather than constructive criticism.

Does that mean FC couldn’t communicate better here? Of course not.

As someone who participates on discord and interacts with the devs, i don’t see much if any personal attacks against them on discord.

It’s because Discord and Reddit are full of sycophants.

I’m signing the petition. Getting a lot of random DCs since the patch.

They have to be sober too.

Harassment and personal attacks are totally unacceptable, but I don’t see why that would push them towards a platform they don’t control (like Reddit) and away from one on which they have total control (like the forum)…
(I strongly dislike Discord and use it as little as possible but I expect that they would have pretty much total control over the Discord server too, assuming that it’s their own.)

They do have control over it

What do you mean? Are you saying that they control the Eve subreddit? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
I can’t see anything to indicate that…

Discord, they have control over their discordyou mentioned you believe they have control over discord, i was telling you they do

I’m still not experiencing any frequent disconnects. I think this whole year i had maybe one.

Can’t you try a few ISPs around besides your landline? Easiest would be LTE? Or you could get starlink and return it after 30 days?

I’ve been looking into my disconnects and found something interesting.

It’s always related to the login system.

Whenever I get disconnected from the game, I try opening the home site for EvE and everything works fine, except for the login. It simply times out and I can’t login with any account.

When the login server comes back, I’m able to login in the site and in the game. It usually takes a couple minutes for this to happen, sometimes a bit longer.

P.S.: Also, when I’m getting disconnected, I often keep chatting in the in-game channels normally, even though I’m already DCed. Then the game catches up and the connection is lost. So whatever it is, the in-game chat channels are unaffected by it.

This is getting downright insuferable.
