So when does SE plan to credit our accounts for the multiple ongoing service issues?

I concede to your point. I was just saying some other games compensate for unexpected downtime. Usually it’s not for DDOS though, but for patch fixes.

Indeed. If memory serves from my time back with WoW (yes yes, get your groans out now everyone), every now and then Blizzard would for instance actually add a couple of days for free to any active subscription, as a sort compensation for cumulative time that the game had been offline for patching, maintenance or anything of the sort.

I dont think anyone would argue that's a bad thing to do as it's most deffinitively a developer made "issue" that they then chose to compensate people for. But while SE's been quite generous and paused things like the auto demolition for houses when there's been a significant natural disaster preventing people from having acess to the game, it feels kinda silly and dangerous to ask them to take what is likely turn out to be a financial hit, for a problem that's not only not their fault, but something they're in all likelyhood either doing or already tried everything in their power to alleviate

(Not arguing against you or anything. Just wanted to elaborate ^^")
