Server Down 8/4/12 9:00am est

[Swinger]

Is the issue money? How much does a reliable server cost monthly? Yearly? I don't know about everyone else.. but this is my "alone-time hobby". If I'm not working or fishing, I'm everquesting. I sure wouldn't mind chipping in for a more reliable server if it meant less glitches.

Yes it's free so no right to complain. The freeness is probably contributing to the issue because we may be running on lesser equipment than is optimal and/or we may be using a bargain ISP or on some sort of limited usage deal. Or it could be DOS attacks. Or it could be something else entirely.

Granted it is happening more lately than I can recall in my 2 or so years of play here. I have to believe however that Nil and Rog are aware of the problem. Because they are who they are I am also sure that whatever steps can be taken are either being taken now or will be soon.

Your personal time has nothing to do with a free product. It's free. Thus you cannot complain. IF you were paying monthly and there were issues, than you would have every right to complain.

This is America. I have the right to be pissed about anything... I don't care that it's free.

And, yes, I to have a life.

Just because something is free doesn't mean you cannot complain. You can still express concern over it not working properly, just don't be an ass about it. You may not be entitled to hold someone responsible for the service not working, but you sure as heck have the right to complain a little.

Whatever floats your boat, if complaining helps you sleep at night go for it. The effect it will have will be negligible though.

You'd have just as much luck complaining that its raining outside and cursing mother nature.

/p = this session: 11hrs 45min 30sec

@5:30pmEST

server has not been down in at least near 12 hrs because i wouldnt still be in game at this moment. Login Server not letting you connect does not always mean P99 is down.

Login Server still down yeah?

Grats on having a life broski, *virtual high five*

And yeah you're an american for sure. Grats on that to. Complain until your hearts content. You might get some type of bonus government check in the mail for quality complaining.

Ferchristsake, please fix this somehow. I know this is free to play and you all have lives, but just saying...

Food at a soup kitchen is free.
If it's unnecessarily hot and scolds a homeless man, should he just suck it up and deal with it?
What if it burns more than one person and it happens every couple of days when they serve soup in particular?
Should they all just deal with it because it's free?

What if the food isn't quite hygienic and they get sick or at least bad stomach pains.
Should they all just deal with it because it's free?


People who defend this 'free' argument are just asses with nothing better to do.


It's safe to say that other servers run on less hardware with less support than P99 and yet they don't have this issue.
And why on Earth don't any of the guides, GMs or admins pop up a broadcast as soon as they see the error (or get messaged) as to let people know not to zone or log out?

P.S. server is up
