I think the point is there was going to be no ETA They were asleep. Rogean doesnt have an alarm attached to the server to wake him up at 2am when a server goes down..If they were awake to give an explanation they would have just turned the server back up,..

I know, right? I swear, anyone who doesn't think computer game addiction isn't a very real thing right up there with heroin and blow needs to come read one of these threads sometime.
This server is up more consistently than live ever was during this era, by the way.
Back then it was always on the one day you managed to play hookey from work and got your friends to do the same...Like clockwork BOOM server down. I still to this day harrass my one friend about being so addicted to EQ that one time, after the servers had been down for a couple of hours I suggested we go play something else for a bit and check back, and he delivered his classic line from '99..."Nah, I'd rather smoke bowls and watch the big board." The big board being that server status utlility you could have up with the green lights for each server if they were up.
I mean, come on....I get as antsy about downtime as anybody when I'm really into the game, but I bet some of these people literally burst blood vessels in their eyes back then. The freaking server has been back up for hours and they are still bitching and demanding explainations.
