Listen snowflake...I've spent the last 19 years administering SQL Server DB's.  Started with SQL 6.5. I've been party to many production migrations. Thankfully, most of them went well. I can empathize with the tech and DBAs know what they are going through. I lived the nightmare while upgrading a SQL Server 7.0 instance to SQL Server 2005 which required complete conversion of all Data Transformation Service(DTS) packages to SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) packages.


This is like a super-nerdy version of the Navy SEAL sniper copypasta

Glycerine! lmao.  That makes my day.

Wow. The posting rate for randos has gone through the roof since we can't get our laggy fix. Good stuff.


Those of us that still actually play the game have nothing better to do.

This is all I see in the discord:  Endless support for SSG despite their failure to manage a projected 22 hour outage. 

Cut SSG some slack, because how can you expect an epic performance from a bunch of monkeys slamming the keyboards?
  

No, let me be Frank.

I did what I did intentionally and while my primary purpose was not to annoy the other Vaulties, I acknowledge that it was a side effect.


Smart people don't elicit "side effects."  They understand in advance the consequences of their actions.

Anyone who expects anything remotely resembling technical competence and proper planning and testing procedures from SSG at this point has been paying zero attention for the past 6 years.

I would have been completely surprised if they had managed to pull something like this off on-time and without any problems.

You're over reacting. They were nice enough to let us know there would be small extensions. Every 6 hours on twitter. For days.

Personally, this is slightly better than reading the news, but maybe much made up stuff here! Gotta expect a lot of rando's really since the other forum is down. We come here to fond out if the game is back up, and when it is what has been fucked up.

I have this weird apocalypse fantasy.... everyone is level, 1 no gear, no past lives and level cap is now 12. It would mean I would be almost as powerful as everyone else for about one hour.

Fuck you. Some of us have very relevant experience in just this sort of job: Moving data centers of over 1000 devices over 2000 miles away. Even better, making a fucking data center that is nuclear resistant.

Fuck you and the white horse you rode in on...

You forgot to laud over us your rockstar assembly programming skills.  And you failed to remind us that you have been doing this longer than any of us, getting your start when punch cards were bleeding edge tech.

Well that would fit SSGs business model pretty well.  Because fuck profit and job security.

Game and forums are up, but many people are finding out that some of their store-bought items (races, bank slots, etc) are missing. Also, many people can't log on as their passwords aren't working, either. The shit show continues.

they will probably congratulate themselves on how long they "kept it going" never able to see that it could have easily managed to keep itself going for far longer if they had just meddled far less drastically and with some semblance of an actual gameplan.

3 days in.  That should have been their plan A from the get-go or their plan B the second they didn't finish by their initial deadline.

This is why SSG is still Turbine.
