But, by all means, please keep the discussion going as it is rather entertaining to see who actually makes sense, and who is barking mad (spoiler alert: that means most of you folks XD).
Very odd, I was stable without any issue. I'm sorry it was being a pain for you.

I heard a rumor that they didn't really have an emergency! Positron wanted some play time and really didn't want to be bothered with others, so they shut it down for a bit. Him and War Witch are doing the Statesman TF as we speak, and it will be up as soon as they are done. *nod nod*

Maybe it was only broke for a few people so they brought down the servers to break the game for everyone!!!

Yay for being equal across the board!

yes, I have nothing to contribute but snarky sarcasm

Go hassle a CSR if that's what you want. I doubt you'll get anywhere since a certain of amount of maintenance downtime is provisioned for in the ToS.
1: Never asked about the CSR

2: It doesn't take a wall of text to make a point

3: You keep implying that i have no right to be angry in the slightest. Psh.

4: Your probably going to reply to this with a wall of text aren't you?

3) Only 5 outdoor zones? Really? Sure they're about 1.5 times as big as the average COX zone, but with only one server, there are always massive numbers of instances of every outdoor zone, and no mechanism to automatically make teammates exiting an instance wind up in the same instance of the outdoor zone.
4) For a game based on the single most customizable RPG, the power customization is pathetic. Done by items only? and only sword powersets have significant numbers of those equipment based powerups? BLECH!

All in all, CO is an incredibly dissapointing waste of effort. If they'd spent that effort creating a game that was an ACTUAL implementation of the Champions Hero system, it might have been worth playing.
But according to the email I just got, they have a moon base....



Still not enough to make me play it again

Jesus. Learn some respect/patience.
If you're going to make corrections, please do so with that persons best interest in your heart.

That being said, I was on, playing. There were no issues affecting my play. Ergo, it can be argued that whatever was happening was certainly not critical. It wasn't a server specific issue; else some would be up, others not.

So, it must be something, maybe the Database Server. I've no idea, and I really don't care what it was - except I know that it wasn't absolutely necessary. It could have waited. And, I know this to be true because I was on playing when the red announcement came on.

At least, that's the way it seems to the casual, uninformed player that I am.

I do appreciate the fact that whatever this mysterious malady is, they know that it won't take longer than one hour to repair. How they know this is beyond me, but most things are, it would seem.

Right because god forbid I hold a company I'm paying to the agreements and promises they make, that's just unthinkable and self entitled.
They had to postpone - ok fine, it happens... but they should have found some way to make it up to the player base. That's what you do when you have a mess up on your end, you fix it and make it up to those who were badly affected. Down this morning for matinence, irritating but - ok, at least it wasn't normal playing hours for most. Now again - less then twelve hours later... again, because they are having problems on THEIR end. I don't think it's wrong to expect the Devs to man up, own the problem and make restitution.

Self entitled in my opinion is taking my money, then showing me no respect by constantly not following through on promises without even an effort to make it up. Seems to me the ones who feel entitled are the Devs, entitled to OUR money.

I think I will join in!

I DEMAND ...... I DESERVE ....... TO YOU IT IS A GAME, TO ME, IT IS LIFE ITSELF!!!!

WHAT???!! PULL AWAY FROM GAME AND SPEND AN HOUR WITH FAMILY!?? THAT WOULD MAKE IT NOW....2 HOURS!! ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR MIND, IT IS DOUBLE XP WEEKEND! I HAVE NO FAMILY! -wivesies and mommies don't count-

Seriously, I was fussing to wife about it too, though she may have been fussing more. She thought God smote CoH so WE would get off for a bit. Don't be mad at us, I am sure He did it to her not me! LOL..... I am sure it is an emergency, and NO, we do not NEED to know if Positron forgot to put a squiggle instead of a line on the mini-skirt program turning it into a g-string. It will be repaired, your tempers will no longer be a factor, and if you choose to quit CoH/CoV over this, then it is just one less high strung overly sensitive person the rest of us have to deal with.

For your own safety, you should probably relax. I'm sure high blood pressure is unhealthy.

I think you have every right to be angry about anything you wish to be angry about.

In re this issue, how's that anger working out for you? Good?

Oh, the freeze/crash issue has been making me nuts for quite some time (not necessarily a bad thing in reality as I have been spending much more time there as a result...), but the mapserving is about 2 days old (and getting EXTREMELY old, extremely fast).

It's been proven time and time again that no matter how valid your opinion is on these forums, there will be people who will act like it's not or it's not important. Typically it's the same people every time, and typically they are just blind supporters of anything the devs do... See: Sheeple.
