Patching, thanks for the hard work

And this is why I love DDO. Such a community *Sniff*

GO BACK IN YOUR HOLES, TEARS!

Oh and patching ftw.

Why back in my day you waited 2 hour for "The Oregon Trail" to boot up on my Commodore 64. You young people with, " I want now!!!!" mind set. Why did I every tell you the time I carried all my programs on 5" floppy disks and my portable phone weight 10lbs. That was a truly high tech age. hehehe

[Loromir]

Tomes bonuses showing

[TechnicallyZero]

Please hurry my wife is now talking about having babies, I'm scared

Whose babies is she talking about having that scares you??

[eldrytch75]

Who do I see about compensation for the shaft chafing that has been caused by my inability to log in?

Thank you Cordovan, here's to hoping all goes well then

Saal

I sure wont log on to any of my TR'S until i get the all clear in here about any tomes going into limbo and any bonuses lost.

[Assassination]

Yay! Good job guys!!!

Insulting the devs is a Bad Thing(tm). Insulting the player base is even worse.

I'm disappointed that Turbine keeps insulting us with what they deliver. So many of the problems that come up over and over again. A small amount of regression testing would prevent so many problems. But Turbine's management has decided that testing isn't a priority.

I don't blame any of the people who are doing the work. They have an overwhelming job to deal with. It's not the testers' fault. It's not the devs' fault. It's the management team's fault for deciding that the quality that they've been producing is acceptable.

Because gods forbid they ever test what happens when the programming language gets mixed with the live server build and is utilized on a daily basis so they can figure out what happened and try their best to correct the issue! And in a time where every single online game comes out and has absolutely no launch issues or update issues ever!

You are just to Awesome Cordo <3

knew you could knew you could

[UurlockYgmeov]

launching!

patiently watching multiple load screens...

In!

[tanjal]

Hey we like free stuff, and we like to troll, therefore as compensation for our lost gaming time, I suggest they give everyone a free troll creature companion. It could be the gift that keeps on giving. Next time the game crashes, they could give us a dance or play dead for our troll. Then maybe some cool purple Hulk pants. I NEED a dancing troll in purple Hulk pants, dang it. If it's another excessive downtime, they could re-skin him, and give us a scrag companion. Lord knows there's enough stinkin trolls in the game, this could go on for awhile.

lol thanks for that image

[GrrArgh]

I rolled that 20. (Told you it would work.)

Seriously though, Thanks devs.

[Caliban]

I'm too old to be polite. I'm at the age when I call 'em as I see 'em.

Here's a thought for our compensation: A Heroic or Epic Otto's Box. One per account.

**** senior citizens, always asking for handouts and discounts. Isn't draining Social Security dry enough for you people? /me shakes fist.

Great!

*looks at clock*

Bedtime.

Well, still glad it's done.

[Normalcy]

My legitimately purchased +6 and +7 tomes are gone from my character!

[biglou]

The servers can't be up I haven't finished conquering the world in Civ 5.

[Braegan]

5 1/4" disks old man

And how fancy did those 3 1/2" disks feel when those came out? heh.

[JP457]

Define later tonite? because there are 3-4 hours left till tomorrow... P.S. will there be compensation for those of us with VIP?

Yes, I figure you owe me two silver rolls tomorrow to make up for the one I didn't get today.
