AH! Server went down while I had 4980 Gold Ore floating in space! - TheBlackPixie - 04-04-2012
The Server JUST went down and I had 4980 Gold Ore floating in space waiting to be picked up!
Is there anything that can be done? I take it the Gold Ore will be lost now, but that was about $70,000,000 credits! D:

Ouch.. and i mean that.. from the bottom of my red honking heart.

This is why you don't drop expensive amounts of ore in space.
Given that unattended floating items have a chance to disappear anyway...

It's all ok actually, I just checked my cargo hold and it was all there!:D
Plus Cannon is online, don't think I'll bother him though...:D

Yeah I can't really be sympathetic if you leave incredibly valuable stuff just lying around.
This reminds me of the Junkers back in the Penny mining days; crafty buggers would just cruise on past and hit B.
Worked a treat when you were the Junker.:D

I got disconnected right before the server went down a few hours ago and lost about 2 mil in elixirs (would have been closer to 10 mil when I sold it). Just part of the cost of doing business, you know?
Look at it this way, in real life (unless you're well-insured) if a tornado hits your semi full of vodka while you're eating at a rest stop you don't get compensated. It's unfair but generally it's a freak occurrence. On the plus side, with the server restarted you've got a fresh field to mine in.
