Well EQ" has been down for 27 hours now. I dutifully logged off when the
usual 3.pm message came up but it seems the servers are in a mess big time.

Just out of curiosity what was the longest time people can remember EQ1
being down?

My EQ1 server, The Nameless, was down for pretty much a whole weekend once.
It died, and Sony said it was a serious hardware failure, and a new server
was being installed. That ran a while, and then it dies, and it took them a
day or so to get a third server.

I dont remember actual times, but I think the patching after luclin
expansion was the worst.

Probably, the patching and repatching and repatching ad nauseum after SoL
was probably the worst.

As I recall, Tunare was down for a while due to some hardware issues also
at some point, but might have been a different server.

Thanks, folks. Until now, I had successfully blocked the SoL fiasco from
memory. ;-)
