I am way too far away logistically to help nor would I be much help w/o being trained for the specifics first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derethevil Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Well i hope this is over soon. My friend right now wanted to come online, which is really mostly once a week by now for an hour.. and now she can't. Hopefully the service is back online before she loses patience.

I can imagine, and that may be why the login attempts are being disabled? Don't. Please.Think about a few hundred people doing that all at the same time and the load it puts on the servers. It's the reason why so many have trouble logging back in once logins are re-enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Understood, so I just wait and read this forum and then when they give a clear, and or I see that the number of People online goes up then assume I can try again?

CrystalFragments Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 When a certain MMO that shalt not be named did their server migration they kept stringing us along with specific times for the server to be back online. what added insult to injury was that these deadlines they kept failing to meet then posting another deadline a few minutes after the servers were supposed to be back up. It is incredibly irksome to keep stringing users along like that. Many of us waited for several hours for said servers to relaunch which they only did two days after the relaunch date was missed. I am grateful that LL did not do this for us. I would rather someone tell me they have no clue what time it will be back up then have me waiting to get back on at a specific time.

That doesn't mean this outage will last all four days. You and i both know it will be longer though... If they give an estimated time of an outage, doubling it is the SOP for LL..

If they give an estimated time of an outage, doubling it is the SOP for LL.. Well, first of all, that was an announced time frame for maintenance, not an outage. There has been no announced time frame for the outage. Second, I have a bit more faith in LL than that. LL is not perfect. Sometimes they get things wrong. And, yes, sometimes things like maintenance take longer than expected. But by and large they do really well at keeping up a product that uses old infrastructure to support all manner of custom designed product created by a bunch of people who are, mostly, not pros. I think that's pretty amazing. I'm confident that they will get this fixed and I won't be a bit surprised if it is sooner than expected. Sometimes they do that too. And with that, I am off to get some sleep. Thank you, @Tommy Linden, @Grumpity Linden, and @Wulf Linden for participating in this thread and thank you to all for the entertaining comments. If I end up laying in bed staring at my ipad I'll probably end up looking at this thread. Otherwise, see everyone tomorrow.
