Is it really a surprise when they have to shut down the servers multiple times anytime they code anything more complicated than a for loop?

What is surprising about that? I read, they had one yesterday, too. Tomorrow again and it counts as tradition. We can even light candles.

They had to crash the servers again?  Working at SSG must be super chill. I mean, the boss must be completely fine with incompetence. If I went down the hall and told my boss “A customer asked me a question and I don’t know the answer, so I unplugged the phones and locked the door.” I don’t think it would work out so well for me.

Duh.  They're poorly qualified for the position they're holding.

I can totally relate. 
I happen to be a state worker and incompetence is par for the course and we have comparable customer service.

What do you have when 50 state workers and 50 lesbians are in a room?
100 people that don't do dick

In my experience when you have 50 state workers and 50 lesbians in a room you only have 50 people in the room, because all 50 of the bitches who work at the DMV are clearly lesbians.

The DDO servers have a much better chance of being self-aware than SSG does.  Roll Eyes

I did get a 30 minute warning on Hardcore, but playing on my home server I have had someone in guild say "Damn not again" and I ask "What?" and they tell me there was a server down in 5 message. Not sure how you make a global message that only some people see...
