In commemoration, double XP is available on all shards until at least Tuesday.

 

The consideration is very much appreciated. I wish we could treat *you* guys to something. Chasing hardware issues that you can't physically touch is no fun whatsoever, be it the 'customer'-facing staff that deals with problem tickets and the like or the server-facing folks trying to connect to a machine through RDP, a backplane administration interface, or the like, especially when that hardware refuses to talk to you. I've experienced both first-hand, and you have my sincerest sympathies.

We are considering what to do for those who lost anything on account of the crashes.

 

I haven't experienced any loss, but the idea that springs immediately to mind is in keeping with theme of the month's event. Make with a handful of prismatic aethers via email to those affected... enough to get one of the tier 1 permanent hologram costumes or so.
