    Come Thursday there will be another huge list of "Stuff".

    Love the updates, don't get me wrong. Just not twice per week. That's getting a little old.

    Doesn't Eve Online go down every single day? At least it did when I tried playing it.

    I know this is a bit off-topic, but has a definite date been decided for the server merge? Also could you publish a checklist of things one would need to do to prepare for the merge?

    Thank you in advance,

    One step forward, two steps back, that is why we have Thursday too. For the love of God, please get spell check guys, a lot of these fixes are spelling corrections/procs/stat to stuff that has been added.
    How does that even happen? Testing is on us now, we have to find the spelling errors, proc errors and stat errors while fighting L.O.S. issues in instances that have been out for years. (we pay to help them fix stuff)
    Mobs can run full speed even when they are at 3% vs 100%, it doesn't matter, as we loose all our speed when we get damaged.
    Mobs can climb anything and run through walls, our AOE's even hit mobs on different levels and they will come and join the fight. Etc, Etc.
    Sorry, just venting. It is getting more and more frustrating playing anymore.....

    Would you like some cheese to go with that whine?

    Thank you for this, Naramsin! :)

    And if it's all due to come crashing in before the end of August, it's not that far off-topic. :-/

    One hour of your day can wait for an update...most of the time servers are up before the hour is done

    Yeah, but thank heavens for the reminders, as annoying as they can be ("Two hours to go!" "Cool, thanks." "One hour to go!" "Groovy." "Half hour to go!" "Thanks." "Fifteen minutes!" "Okay." "Ten minutes!" "Right!" "Five minutes!" "SHUT UP, ALREADY! WE GET IT!"); it definitely tells you when to start wrapping things up to pick up where you left off. Without that, you could be knee-deep in something and have it be interrupted; at least, the throes of a decorating thought, if not an actual bunch of combats. :-/
