As much as I semi disagree with the title this acually has me really erked.

Middle of dungen about to kill named; after we already lost a named loot due to loot bug where it never acually gave us the items.

This was really @!#$@#$.    Warning was the LEAST you could do.   How about update your NEWS so we know whats going on is a good 2nd.   3rd if you keep doing double exp crap and crashing your servers with your poor gm service etc your going to ruin the game..   and this was a really low blow.

Amazingly enough not only is the gameplay reminding me of EQ, but the crashes are also.

Although, admittedly Vanguard is crashing a LOT less than EQ1 did in the first 2-3 months it was launched.

The way I see it, all these double EXP weekends is pretty similar to the Free additional month of play that they gaves EQ1 players when it launched.

Meh, nothing new here.  Even WoW had servere server instability during it's first few months.

Is it great, naw.  But it just goes to show that programming an MMO is significantly more complex and prone to error than any other type of game.

The problem is not crashing.....it is SOE taking the servers down without warning to apply hot-fixes.  They do it all the time.  As a result, it is hard to know when the srver actually crashes or they toiok it down for a hot-fix.  As it stands for now, I can tell they took them down for a hot-fix because the servers are STILL down.  If it was a simple server crash, they would have been back up before now.

I don't mind problems. I don't mind bugs. I can't stand jergoff software companies that cannot communicate for [NERFED]. Should have known SOE would ruin this game like all the others.

Yeah, a warning to a crash.

You people make me sick.  You cry about this and that soon enough this game is going to turn like where you came from.. WoW or the now similar Eq2.  Crashes happen especially with a new mmorpg you f'n idiots.  Please stop playing this game and just go back to WoW.

True and True again i care not for the server down time it stinks but understandable what there is no excuse for is no warning. no updating no profesionalism or service worth a p###.  let us no or if it just goes poof give an exclamation in the updater thought thats what it was there for.  Just a thought

Restate for you as you seem to be the f'n idiot.  Problems... OK.  Crashes... OK.  Shiddy communication... NOT OK.

 Let me know if you fail to understand this dee dee dee explanation and I will see if I can somehow make it simpler, smacktard.

If you think all the servers crashed at once you are a total moron!!  This was either a planned or unplanned outage but it was at least premeditated up to some point as 12 server clusters don't all go down at the same time due to a bug.  I've worked in I.T. building networks and servers for 15 years and I can assure you this one thing.  My email server may go down, but the file server doesn't follow suit.  They need to provide warning for outages and at the times where that is not possible posting a splash on the website is possible.  Be an enabler of SOE's incompetance all you want, the fact of the matter is they have a horrible reputation with people who play MMOs for a reason.  Sigil isn't responsible for the servers but I bet they wouldn't condone outages with no information being given.

Hmmm...truth be told you sound like the idiot.  Whining about those simply venting their frustration simply makes you look quite childish and idiotic yourself.
