Thread: Server 65 maintenance, are you serious?

Hybrid View

  1. #1

    Default Server 65 maintenance, are you serious?

    So on server 65 we get a 100 minute maintenance notice. That's all very well and good, but it reminds us EVERY 30 seconds.
    When it's a message that takes up 5 out of the 6 chat lines, it gets kind of annoying as i'm sure you can imagine. If you aren't watching the chat constantly you'll miss someone replying to you, which makes chat useless.

    Basically, everyone is getting really cabbage'd off about it, and it would be nice to think about your players and change it to remind us every 5-10 minutes instead.

    Thanks, Skill.

    i totally agree with that if you want to post a message in the chat link it will usually dissapear right out of the window because of the maintenance message and you have to scroll or open the larger window to read that message

    Yeah, I confirm. Realy boring in fact. We just can't read what other people are saying on the chat-box.

    104m30s and one message every 30 seconds = 209 messages . . . I think we have understood with the first 100 . . . ^^

    At least they are letting us know it will be down.
    They don't want anyone complaining about starvation, troop loss, hero escaped, or whatever.
    Yet still you guys manage to complain about something.

    Ok i'm sorry but how can you possibly think it is acceptable to spam the chat box every 30 seconds with 5 lines of text. If they let me know it will be down maybe every 5 minutes that would be ok, but every 30 seconds is ridiculous.

    I'm not one of those people that complains about troop loss etc, it's a game, games have bugs that need to be fixed and downtime arises from that and stuff happens. Don't group me with the whiners when im not.



    By the way, in the rules:

    "Spam

    * Any action obstructing a player's view of a normal chat flow and game play."


    Game makers breaking their own rules, nice. I'd like to see your response to this because you damn well know im right.

    Ok you wanted to see my response, so here it is...

    Evony has tons. tons. TONS. of things to do in this game.

    Just look at all the threads ranting on about all this stuff.
    Do you honestly think Evony has enough time to fix every single one of those problems?
    Definentaly not.

    They fixed the problem about shutting down servers with little or no warning.
    And now you complain that they fixed it.

    They make it every 30 seconds so the people that just log on know about the news as well.

    It does not interrupt conversations at all.
    My alliance has perfectly fine conversations while they have these warnings.

    Just deal with the fact that Evony did this to FIX a problem. Not have you argue about it.
