    Using the Lord's name in vain will not get the server up any faster
    There is no way in hell that you could possible be sure of that. For all you know, the last time the server went down it would've taken 4 hours to get it back online but since a lot of folks were using the lord's name in vain....it only took 3 hours. I can'[t prove you wrong....but you can't prove me wrong either! LOL :D

    If you're talking about fleets... it's not that hard to find a fleet with people you like.

    Agreed and it's not hard to find fleets with divisions for different aspects of the game or fleets that focus on one aspect or another.

    What Commadore Bob is referencing is the fact that when a huge amount of people are trying to log into the game and the game can't fit everyone, gold members get to go in first.

    That's all he's saying.

    Which is not true. I remember the last time there was a login queue, I got in within 3 mins and my fleet mates with life time subs had to wait 15+ mins... it is really, first come first server, gold player or not.

    I can agree it is a massive coincidence that all the Cryptic servers and games went down at once but that could be caused by something as simple as a power cut, even if they had backup generators they would take a few seconds to kick in and that alone could cause a massive problem with reboots and so on.

    Not if the systems are backed up by battery; just sayin'. :cool:

    Yes, a favour... one more place for them to complain about wine, cheese, other people and anything else they can think of... A favour to whom, exactly? O.o

    We won't have to get a big patch (or downtime, but there probably will still be) on Thursday. As long as the server is already down, they are putting out the patch. This saves on time later.

    What on earth is so hard to comprehend about this?
    I ask nothing but that you remember me.

    I know what he is saying. Still does not do you any good when the server is down.

    Why would I be worried about being at the front of the line when the server is down. Do Gold Subscribers not have to deal with that?


    There is usually a ton of people trying to connect at the same time after a Season Release/Major Update.

    When this happens (too many ppl trying to connect at same time); The Gold/LTS go into a Priority Queue and the Silvers go into a Secondary Queue.

    When S7 dropped, it took me 5 mins to get in.....
    a F2P Fleetmate, took hime 35 mins.

    Yes its like a Que hopper, only really noticed the ques around the time star bases were first launched. Wont help with downtime, and it wont help with getting DC'ed though.

    I think Cryptic coded a form of viral matrix and targeted their own server, except they forgot to code a server form of engineering team to heal it.
