About these "momentary" unavailabilities..

Ive been trying to spam the account page every hour or so for 10 hours or so. It's 3:30 cet and there's 700 people logged on Prydwen. Even at this hour, the account page is apparently so overloaded that you cant access it. Kemor, you guys sure you didn't just replace the original account update page with that error message?

Trying hard to maintain resemblance of high spirits about all this but somehow it aint getting any easier. Another portion of lousy karma for you guys.

Unbelieveable that GOA can't put up some extra account-login servers. There's maybe 20000 or more who want to register but can't because of bad judgements.:rolleyes:

just when another game that looks to be the mmorpg daddy comes out peops will flock to it cos GOA will have no brand loyalty due to crap conistant service

well mate if you've been spamming F5 for refresh then YES you have only been refreshing error page you have to click the "account" link in the leftside menu EVERY TIME.

I managed to activate the wifes SI from an Oil Rig off the coast of Africa in about an hour. That would have been about 03:30 cet just after I came back from Smoko. Its just a case of perseverance and as was stated before hitting the account button not the refresh button or F5

Later

Guys, every time you meet a person you assume he is an idiot? Of course I've been spamming the account page.

I can regularly get to the correct page by pressing 'account' and enter my name and password into the boxes (subscription one, not the game one) and hit enter, but it returns me to the 'temporarily unavailable' page. Is this normal? Most people seem to be experiencing problems getting the 'account' link to work, rather than the next step. If I had changed password previously and forgotten about it, surely it would say wrong login name/password wouldnt it?
Is it just me with problems at this 'second' step? Guild mates tell me when they got to the page where you enter name and passy, they had no probs from there.

Got same prob as u guys....why doesnt GOA tell us somthin about this prob....lots of ppl have it i personally know about 6 who e-mail GOA hopin that someone there is actually responsible enough to answer but still no reply.If anyone gets past this 1 can u post it pls?

Bump....cause i have the same problem and maybe GOA might notice and do something (huh as if)

I cant understand why they couldnt have given a free month with the expansion with the rider that you had to activate during that month to keep using the pack. After all it's useless without an account so they are getting their money anyway.

As it stands now i'm paying a subs fee for the privilege of not being able to play the expansion pack.

The really annoying thing is i got the account login screen once but it directed to the error page and thats all i get now :(

I saw SI in the shops seeing it as a good excuse to start playing Daoc. I foolishly thought that i might actually be able to re-activate my account.

HOW DO GOA EXPECT TO GET NEW CUSTOMERS IF THEY CANT EVEN GET THIS PART OF THEIR WEBSITE TO WORK.

goa sux big time, i got up early today and been trying all day,i am so pissed of almost deleted me chars and threw box in the bin,
but i spose in a few weeks we all be on si and happy again,
GOA read what ppl say your keeping us in the dark and not helping one bit, your lucky that peeps are staying with you and not doing what i almost done a few times, and throw your shit in the bin. Your taking the piss now and your pissing everyone off.
Show some respect to your layal customers and at least tell us what going on.

you just proved you are by responding so hostile to a friendly tip.
a tip given because a LOT of people DID refresh the error message every time...

GOA should be ashamed of this...

I wonder for who/whom the Internet works for ;)

I recall an epsiode of some lousy tv-series, where some guys in orange overalls with the text "Internet" printed on their backs...

They actually said in that program: " We work for the Internet" :D
This must have been a few years back ;)

But at times like this with GOA's crappy service, I'd like like the EU to fine GOA for not keeping promises of bandwith or whatever...
:sleeping:
well, I'm outta here...gonna try to be like a frenchman now....opening a bottle of wine while I w(h)ine *s*

And maybe I can start to think like a frenchman while drinking wine? :m00:
