Login server down??

11 min ago a Mepps

Sr. Community Manager

Apologies for the delay. We are working on it.

Posted here Login server down?? | Page 5 | EverQuest Forums (daybreakgames.com) They are aware, they are working on it! (Or at least they became aware 11 min ago)

It's back up, y'all.

Its back up

I just logged in. Looks like login server is working again.

.....

Fixed like 15 minutes after someone posted about it. Did it take 4 hours for someone to be alerted, or 4 hours to find the issue? It's funny/sad that both are equally plausible.

GO GO GO!!!!

I didnt think it would take them long to get it back up once they realized it was down. Too bad it took half the day before they were aware lol...

Y'all were all gathered around the login server too close, so the anti-camp radius kicked in.

Thanks

CONFIRMED: Login server back up

5 hours to fix a login issue in a game on a Sunday morning? Oh no! What a catastrophe! Any other business would have been firing people over that! LITERALLY!!!

Hey, random person who I've never met and probably never will. If you are employed, I hope your employer applies your own work standards to you.

I can login now....
but with 2-3 tries and countless "an error has occured"...."your account cannot be validated"... incl. the usual kick to the last "LDoN" emergency place because DGB still is not able to simply pause the login a bit more until the instance is loaded... yay Everbug...
But thanks for caring...

its back up

The acting CEO of EG7 would have to fire himself. If Mepps only found out about it because he tried to log into the game then that tells you community relations isn't staffed for the weekend much like their support staff.

Hopefully, Mepps charges the time it took to make those two posts and the calls.

You are just a bundle of joy arent ya?

It's not a matter of community relations it's a matter of automatic alerts apparently failing.

Doesn’t seem like a successful strategy for an online game.

Yeah, read that. Not really relevant to what Shoots and I are discussing. Staffing is. I am not really surprised nobody is monitoring ops on the weekend. If I had to guess they probably have a revolving on call person for the weekends/holidays who gets the company phone those alerts are supposed to go to.
