Troodon had this to say about Tron:
This ever happen to anyone? Right when we're picking up the bride in Great Divide, everyone goes link-dead, and the server's locked. Hm. Never had a server actually locked before, in the seven months I've been playing guess it was bound to happen eventually. But during a wdding? What're the odds? Meanwhile, got bored, created a bunch of other characters on other servers, had fun suiciding them by attacking guards, merchants, red creatures, and jumping off cliffs. Server's still not back up. Just realized that I'm still bound in Cabilis, but went link dead at the dragon circle in GD. Think I could make it to Thurgadin when I get back on? Hope so. Oh well. Wonder how long it'll take to get back on. It's been 5 hours since I went LD now.
yeah VI is out to get you UH HUH YEP THATS JUST IT!

Youve been playing EQ for 7 months and youre [bold]NOT[/bold] used to being boned yet?
Yep, guess I'm just lucky. Maybe it's the time of day I play, maybe Sol Ro's more reliable than other servers, or something. But in the 7 months I've been playing this is the first unannounced server outage I've ever experienced. I've gone LD quite a few times before, but always managed to get back on again within 5 minutes.

You're reading paranoia in my thread that was not stated or intended. After all, EVERYBODY, not just me, on my server, and a few others, got kicked off at the same time. I know it was bound to happen eventually, I just remarked that the fact it happened right when we were planning a guild event was rather interesting. And annoying, obviously. I don't seriously believe that Verant pulled the server just to get us. But any two events happening simutaneously is always a remarkable coincidence.
Seriously though, I doubt Verant would go out of its way to piss of paying customers. No company trying to make a profit would be that stupid. Although they accidentally or unintentionally annoy a hand-full of customers from time to time, they'd never do it intentionally, that's like flushing their own money down the toilet.

Do they HAVE to take up my Saturday afternoon with patching?
Answer to all our petitions: Wait 4 hours and petition again. Whee!
Expect a character rollback sometime soon...
