    Still no response from SOE? Looks like Piestro's channels are down. ;)

    Piestro said in another thread that he would look into it.

    We need the devs to DPS harder on this issue, it really is horrible. They are losing faction with ThePlayerBase! (dunno how I could make it more clear to someone who digs EverQuest)

    The UCS was introduced in 2002 and worked quite well until a few weeks ago when SOE decided to fix it.
  5. Samatman Augur

    UCS down again! Every evening, same thing. I get to see my ignore list flash by like pennants from the sewer.
  6. Axxius Augur

    It already forced me to clear my ignore list. Not that I need it much anyway, seeing as there is no reason to log on most days. But perhaps this is SOE's message to the players: forgive and forget. :D

    Could we get 1 weekend where things aren't horribly broken?

    Have you all noticed that it happens at quitting time?

    LOL...where did anyone say EQOA was a casual game? Confusing the use of EQOA Next and EQ Casual in the same line to mean EQOA was a casual game is just baggage from other topics apparently.

    Much like someone jumping to the conclusion that EQ Casual implies EQ is a casual game...strange how that works...but nobody seems to be jumping to that conclusion.

    However, it is nice to know that there have been over 100 MMOs since 1999. Just as interesting would be a list of those games that have died since 1999. 100+ MMOs...of which....'x' are still around....which could lead to a very interesting discussion on the lifecycle of MMOs and what helps a MMO last over time. This information could then be funneled to the dev teams at SOE to try to figure out how to make sustainable games.

    Most likely as soon as the intern in charge of flogging the hamster goes home, it stops running.

    Please fix the chat channels. Read the other thread about weekly patches and they still can't fix what they have. Let alone respond.

    Take a look at the commands you use for channel management. I wouldn't be surprised at all if UCS is a hacked up IRC server at the back end.

    Another day, another day of chat breaking down. another day of us being ignored, how about you guys stop charging for subscriptions until you fix this garbage or at least stop ignoring us and tell us its being worked on.

    Its about as lame as you can get to reply to every other post on the forums but just sit on your hands and ignore us when it comes to this. complete lack of respect to your paying customers.

    You don't treat your paying customers like this in a business. it is just pathetic.

    Please look at this SOE. It is an ongoing frustration.
  19. Axxius Augur

    Or just turn them off completely if you are unable to maintain them. Stop this damn spam! It's seriously annoying.
  20. Marshall Maathers Augur

    All I can say is that I am glad I don't have anybody on my ignore list.

    What I hate the most about all this is that it affects my friends list.
