Market Down?

As of 8:40 PM EST, the market isn't excepting anything; enhancements, recipes or bids. All we get are "The Black Market is too busy to process your request". Been trying for 10 minutes. Nothing.

What the heck is going on?

That's what it looks like. When I click on the employee all my slots are empty.

Wow, the slots were there before...

I must admit that I paniced a little when i logged on to three different toons and saw nothing but empty slots where a bunch of goodies were saved up!

I had fears that my account got hacked!

I suspect they had worked on the market interface yesterday, to prepare for the upcoming merger. It appears something got borked in the process.

OH, it's even worse. Email is eating stuff

Yeah, I'm guessing that the market server is having some problems. It's done this before, it'll do it again. I'm not worried about losing things I had bids on/selling since they keep a back-up of the servers.

It does make it difficult getting salvage needed to craft the recipes I have though.

this is CRIMINAL.

internet at home has been down all week courtesy of a fried modem.
New modem shows up, I get it rigged and fire up CoH to see what kind of carnage an unexpected week-long AFK has wrought on my market schemes, and there's no market.

"Well that stinks," I say to myself, "but at least I can hop up to MA and harvest a quick mapful of tickets!"

No such luck.

"Ah well, I guess it's time for a few rounds of MW2!"
Or it would be if Steam wasn't down too.

GRRRRRR.

/edit
Oh joy, Steam revived itself while I was typing this mini-rant.
=D

Globals/Market/AE/Email have been all intermittent since last Thursday's 12 hour maintenance.

I suspect it was prep work for the upcoming Market Merge for Going Rogue. It all is lagging and losing information. I've lost an enhancement to email oblivion, and the market locks me out "too busy to process your request" only after 5 transactions.

I think the new system is trying to access a merged market that doesn't yet exist, and loses packet of information along the way. I don't believe anything is going to work correctly until GR goes live.

The markets have been laggier than a plumber's basement for me since they were 'maintained' (I think they maintained them with a 2 1/2lb lump hammer, personally), and tonight on a couple of occasions, they just plain stopped responding for several minutes at a time.

I'm not sure what's up, but they don't seem overly healthy.

Lag, as in pipe lagging (insulation), as in you expect a plumber to have all the pipes in his basement well lagged.

OK, so it was maybe a bit obscure
