Being blind is a sign of respect in the Brutor clan and is actually not a handicap for space pilot, due to the neural sensory equipment in the capsule.

livin' on a prayer
reported by CCP Hammer | 2010.03.10 14:53:16 | Comments

Whoa, we're half way there. You might be wondering why I'm spouting Bon Jovi lyrics. It's because much like Tommy who worked on the docks and Gina who worked in the diner all day, we at CCP are also half way there. Half way to bringing you Tyrannis, the next free expansion to EVE Online.

account security
reported by GM Grimmi | 2010.03.09 22:50:09 | Comments

RMT elements drain our resources with incessant account hacking. This is an Industry-wide problem and most MMOs are beset by non-stop issues with players' assets and hard work being stolen and sold off for real money by organized criminal networks, who will stop at nothing in order to profit.

Until last summer we experienced regular issues with mass hacking a couple of times a year, usually around Christmas and then again in the middle of summer.

retrospective: how was the csm summit in iceland?
reported by CCP Xhagen | 2010.03.06 23:16:48 | Comments

In short, the answer to the question is nothing less than "The CSM4 summit in Iceland has been the best summit so far." The CSM1 summit was also very good, but for a different reason. Back then we were going in blind and much of the summit, although nowhere stated specifically, was about testing the theory and establishing work methods and traditions.

progress update: restoring tranquility to tranquility
reported by CCP Valar | 2010.03.02 19:05:53 | Comments

Since November 25th 2009, a few days before the deployment of Dominion, we have experienced frequent unscheduled reboots of Tranquility. Almost all of those were due to a bug in the networking subsystem that causes the SQL Server to fail over.

Why, oh, why and what are you doing about it?

As soon as the first failover happened, we, per our policy, opened up a support case with the vendor regarding the incident, since our logs, surprisingly, showed nothing.
