Spoiler alert: they don't actually know how to fix the server transfer problem. The one guy who can fix it takes the whole month of December off, because no one can stop him.
  

I'll never understand the propensity of people to brag about being good at a video game. Its a toy you play with for fun. The only person who should be proud of you is your mother. If you're 3.

I'm completly boggled that they can't seem to update server transfars. 
It's a fucking record in a table in a database.  I mean fuck, what the fuck?

Its way more complicated than that.

It shouldn't be.

But it is.

No, its not way more complicated.  Its a fucking computer file. You copy it one place and write it to another place.

It SHOULD be a fucking computer file that you copy to one place and write to another place. But this is DDO. You KNOW they've somehow fucked things up so its like 5 different files each touching 8 different tables, with transfers automated via some archaic and undocumented script written by a guy who left the company 9 years ago.

The scary part is probably nobody working on the game today actually knows where that -1 comes from.

Coredough says, "Timing will depend on the timing of the underlying fix causing these transfer issues, and we continue to work to identify a cause."

What the fuck is that idiot on about?

So, a fix caused the transfer issues and they can't seem to work out what the cause is?

Did I get that right?

Could you imagine lying underneath that fuckwit?

You think anyone ever let that guy get on top?  His whole personality screams bottom.

They think SQL stands for Sick Quick Lick - when a female's partner's feeling under the weather and not up for regular sexual intercourse, the SQL is a reliable way of defusing tension and satisfying multiple parties

On the plus side, someone left a bunch of Night Revels crap in the guild chest when it ended, which I managed to snarf at the time.

On the down side, I only really want the XP. But the augments tend to sell for shards at some point.
