    according to my sources (names withheld for their protection), this is what happened earlier:

    There were 3 people at pwi's IT department present that time (we shall call them bob, fred and slagathor)

    slagathor: bob, you reset the servers ok?
    bob: I don't know how, this is my 3rd day working here
    slagathor: oh dear god, just turn that switch off and back on again
    bob: i thought that we scheduled the maintenance for 3 hours?
    fred: eh, we just tell them that to give the impression that what we're actually doing something
    everyone: lol

    bob then proceeds to turn off the switch, and they all went out for a bit for some beers.
    after 3 hours:

    bob: ok time to turn it back on...
    bob: guys, nothing's happening
    fred: this happens sometimes, just bang the side with this hammer a couple of times
    bob: it's still not working!
    slagathor: did you hit it hard enough?
    bob: yeah, i hit it pretty hard, i think i damaged it a little
    bob: well what do we do? people are gonna be mad!
    slagathor: oh calm down, it's not like this never happened before
    fred: yeah, let's go out and try again later, i'm hungry

    and there you have it.

    holy ****.. you almost nailed it, you only failed at one of the guy's nameb:shocked

    Keep reloggin/starting new client and eventually you will be able to log in.

    Servers are NOT down, just hard to get in

    You sir are kinda stupid. So a maint has probably gone bad and the East servers are having complications for a few hours. You can't call it 'officially dead' because it's not working right ONE day of 5 years.b:shutup

    If you do not already have a client opened via the patcher/launcher, than elementclient.exe will open the patcher by default. However, anymore clients you open after that through elementclient will skip the launcher/patcher.

    You can't log due to a database file being weird. Authd isn't working. So some of those who can get in, don't see their toons.

    Oh gosh, I hope this doesn't require a server rollback. That could get interesting?

    What can we do but laugh?

    There really is no point in trolling the forum hoping that someone at PWI will just take a few moments to post a note saying anything along the lines of: "We are aware of the problem and apologise for the inconvenience. We have no eta of a solution as yet but we are working on it. "

    Thats all we really need.. just someone to say, Hey dudes, there is a bugger up.. we are working on it...

    Now where is my copy of Skyrim...
