	It was smart of them to sell the Season Pass BEFORE they tried to do this.

	OldCoaly wrote on Mar 7^th, 2019 at 3:45pm: Why leave the production equipment alone and assemble the new equipment & validate the migration procedure off line using backups when you can be a baller with live data and use the same "hope method" protocol that high school kids use for birth control? ^This They just got $300k, they can afford to upgrade their servers and test the new ones before going live. The old ones are years old and no doubt out of warranty, just write them off as a depreciated asset and move on. And of course don't explain to your customers what is actually happening, if they knew how pathetically clueless you were they wouldn't buy 2 years of speculative updates. Ah, Severlin - too stupid to plan ahead, to stubborn to turn back when it fails, and too arrogant to admit to the players what's going on. I'm just thankful this clown is a video game producer not an air traffic controller or even a taxi driver - his incompetence won't kill anyone here.

	Turdbin, keep changing the DDO rules, because McDonalds sold over 200 billion hamburgers by changing the recipe for their Special Sauce every couple of months to keep interest up.

Dell servers are very close behind. Sorry, sir.� In my mind I had included the qualifier: "As far as DDO is concerned, only chumps source their gear from HP or Dell." and that RockStars would save money for PacMan LARP by purchasing "OVERPOWERED" brand crap from WalMart. I think this is clear from the context of the rest of the post, but perhaps not. It was not my intention to besmirch the good names of HP or Dell by associating them with a RockStars.

	The servers are never coming back up. Just give up.

	Dear players, The D&D rules you were familiar with were too simple to understand, so we're continuing our move away from them to needlessly confusing subsystems that will make your play experience less fun and invalidate old builds and loot. We hope you have fun working out what the fuck MRR, PRR, MP, SP, RP, CL, MCL and all the other bullshit we made up whilst drunk means. Love, People who don't know how to fix their own mistakes cleanly

	This is the part where you find out they actually didn't cap the season pass, sold 200,000 of them, wrote a Twitter script to provide indefinite updates, and they're all in Bermuda right now, laughing at you chumps.

You'd get an extra 0.5 by going Dominos instead of Papa Johns. It's a little cheaper. So, it's more realistic for SSG employees.
