I still can't get on, but can I complain about the spins in advance? I feel a bit left out not having had a whine yet...

I like spinning them as well. :) Hey, I'm in the same boat, food and stone! :D
BlueOyster - roll back was to start of server maint, so anything done between server maintenance and the rollback would be lost.
Dave u seemed like a pretty cool guy but if you honestly think threatening to take away 5 ammies is going to make us be more appreciative you are not as smart as you seem. We put up with all these problems and continue to give you guys money because we enjoy the game but dont be condescending and treat us like children.
Yeah I still can't login either...
The US Constitution covers property damage, including the 1st amendment. It does not only apply itself to the government! Instead what you have here is a forum with a TOS and other disclaimers stating that posts may be removed at owner and/or operator discretion.
What you also have here is a company that cannot keep up with its self-imposed responsibilities of providing a quality product/service that it provides in exchange for money. Fair Practices and the US Code have that one covered, not the Constitution. A lawyer could have a field day with the thousands of your angry customers.
Clean it up Evony. You're wasting my hard earned money with these so-called glitches. Here's how it works in my PROFESSIONAL experience...
Glitches are only caused by critical service outages such as power loss, by hardware failure, and by programmer/administrator error. The first can't be controlled, but me and many others here pay you quite well to handle the other two options. Hire better programmers and replace the busted hardware!!! So simple.
Well, I am probably the only person not happy things went back to the way they were. I thought Evony was clearing out the cheaters.
At least from listening to all the people complain on here I now know I am not the only human playing server 153. :p
500k food and 5 amulets are you serious the server was down or useless for 5 hours.
Get real Evony, try giving us compensation for missed building time etc
No ones treating you like a child jarrodco... you're just acting like one.
The issue that occurred today wasn't planned or created by evony, they tried to fix it and they did, and then they rolled back the server so there was limited damage to us. If you don't want the compensation package don't use it. If you don't like the fact you weren't able to log in for a few hours, don't play any more. They gave us 5 ammies out of good will, don't make them stop just because you want more.
Please dont complain about the 5 ammys, its as much the suspense about what you're going to win rather than what you actually win (usually because its rubbish)
what the hell it says on their post that 153 is back up but i was able to sign on for 10 minutes and then it booted me and i have not been able to sign back in WTF is going on with this crap
Acer? What? If I owned my accounts I would be saying you damaged my property. I was correcting Dave who is obviously misreading the document. It does not say what the government can/cannot do, it says what basic human rights each citizen of the US has and what the government must do to protect those rights.
And Dave? Pompous doesn't work here. Evony is a company that needs customers. I don't think your threat of removing compensation packages says you have any respect for that fact.
But here's a thought... Stop the comp packs and stop the incompetence behind your servers. THAT, and only that, would be fair.
What is the Evony server up-time rate anyhow? I'd be shocked if the actual figures are north of 70%. Most online companies die south of 90% nowadays, so consider yourself on borrowed time, statistically speaking.
I don't know about everyone else, but I am STILL not able to log in to 153. It's annoying. I've probably refuged and who knows what else has happened? It's becoming ridiculous. Then, I come here and the moderators say it's back up and really it's not. Not only that, but I read posts where the moderators have now started to FIGHT with players who post here. Moderators are supposed to moderate. My guess is that if they don't like a post they can't delete it for that reason only...the person posting must violate yet another useless policy. Therefore, the moderators have to engage in an offhand dialogue, throw their weight around and pretty much tell us to shut up and deal with it. We HAVE been dealing with it. I agree that some players ask way too much; the free level 10 city, food for a month, etc. are ridiculous, but getting back the food and troops we lost due to something that IS NOT our doing and out of our control totally, is NOT that much to ask for. It changes the game. We no longer have to fight with other players in the game; we have to fight with Evony moderators, staff, etc. It's equivalent to an employee asking the boss to please make sure the payroll check is good.
Technically I did lose, I won on wars from my Amulet spin before the server was rolled back.
I regained my original amulet, and 5 extra ones as compensation. The food was meaningless but never look a gift horse in the mouth, they didn't have to give us anything.
So 6 Amulet spins later, no on wars for me. The resources I did gain won't level the hero up.
Still, not complaining too much. At least I am in, everything is where I left it and can go plunder and pillage to my hearts content.
See ya next time the server goes down :)
NP Acer. And I hate to add to the complaints here. My post count and the fact I've been playing since fall 2009 and you see I rarely say anything here. These last couple of weeks have been especially concerning tho. I look at Evony as an investment. I invest time playing and learning and practicing new techniques, and I invest money toward the goal of entertainment available when I am. But I'm also an IT guy and truly understand this online content delivery business Evony is in. I'm seriously doubting this company's future given the bombardment of issues lately. It seems to me the cup has finally runneth over.
last time the electron flux dipped like this, evony crashed.
http://www.n3kl.org/sun/noaa.html
given the fact we got 200cent and 25amulets over the coarse of the last week I'd say we got plenty of compensation.
oh and thank you for doing that quick restart I can get on the server again.
You shouldn't have to worry about refuging unless you were refuging before the maintenance happened this morning, in which case.. why did you get any food before hand? :p lol
They've rolled back the server and I noticed I haven't lost any food, if anything I weirdly have more than I was expecting! lol
Its back working yay:)
TY to all evony staff that got it back working(no sarcasm)
1 Question instead of cheap compensation packages i would prefer to know exactly what caused this and the previous issues also would like to know what steps have been taken to make sure it won't happen again not being ungrateful just deciding wether or not i should invest any more money on this server or take advantage of the free forever slogan any feedback would be great cheers
I wasn't refuging beforehand, but...ummm...last I checked, troops don't stop eating just because server maintenance occurs. Also, some people DO have lives outside of this game, which means they might not get to farm every effin 8 hours and may actually be asleep when server maintenance happens. In that case, they aren't able to farm for the bonus, right?

No greater words could be spoken :rofl:
LordH_WN2 - at the end of the day, no one lost anything. Some people won't be happy, but that's just how things go.

sorry not true, i still miss 2 heroes, not big one but both mars heroes, and they were here before the last maint. anyway, i am done with this server and any new ones, evony is trying to make too much and have no respect for us paying customers. i been lagging really bad on this server since day one, sent multiple requests and only received surveys asking if i was satisfied with answers, i am a big coiner but this was too much. i will keep playing some older servers but they will be my last ones. This is my first post in two years cause i dont like complaining but if evony is trying to kill age1 they are doing a great job. gl
5 amulets and food for compo?????
the cheek of evony its disgraceful, the neck of these people to take our money and then off that derisory INSULT as compo for the complete mess they made of the server, and not just today either.
I know i will be cancelling my spending with them if its not addressed
my hero were there even when my th was at 0 , i lost them after the last maint
so will there be an explanation as to what the problem was and what has been done to stop it happening again?
Is 153 gonna be full of problems continually or can we get some feedback,
compensation is nice appreciated as good will but i would personally prefer answers have spent on this server not much but enough to be invested,
I just kinda feel an explanation would be nice how the problem was fixed and likelyhood of this happening again would be nice so we all know wether or not its worth staying on this server
Hopefully some1 could give an enlightened answer to this random noobish statement anyways thx for your time:)
answers no, quick to infract tho, i wasn't aware it was a kindergarten forum. PEOPLE SPEND MONEY on this game, and they are ENTITLED to answers!!!!
yep i agree DeVhair but think infractions for foul language is warranted catch more flies with honey then vinegar plus i will keep asking nicely until they have no choice but to answer:)
Omg you people are worst than my 7 year old son.
The server was rolled back. You only lost a few hours to try to get ahead and now that you realized you couldn't you wanna cry. I lost 3 cities, all my troops, and heroes. I got it all back as well as most people who didn't lose anything before maintenance. If you wanna cry over not getting 1000 cents and god knows what else then go find a new game. Maybe Microsoft will give you free **** when XBox LIVE crashes.
i dont think asking for assurance i spend money on is immature quiet honestly could care less either way for compensation packages if i get 1 great if I dont no worries,
What i feel I am allowed question is the legitimacy of this server being problem free so i can continue spending(investing)
To me thats the route of the outburst not people looking for free handouts I think as some1 that invests time and money on a server I can question people on issues that arise with that server no? just my opinion tho
i am not asking for any compensation either and maybe you should spend more time with your 7 year old, it would give us a break.
no business can work ignoring its customer
the television watches him
seriously no offence no1 here is shouting cursing or breaking any rules Estrick your defending evony from not having to answer customers genuine reasonable questions its nice to sit and play devils advocate bt your pretty much on the opposite side of the fence completely now your not a rep you cant answer our questions we have not been rude to you how is it your business to answer for them?
You're all still complaining? O.o
