I still maintain an intern tripped over a power cord....
Having access to a billion $ IP - Billions of dollars.. Having access to a massive fan base of said IP - Even more Billons... Singly handedly alienating them due to stupidity - Priceless.

So they can't access guides, or their own server for help.
Has it always been visible to everyone or just the noobs? It was right under the Game PLay Discussion board

On Tuesday, July 18, 2006 Sony Online Entertainment will be transitioning the Official Station Forums to an internal forum solution. Transitioning to this new system gives us the opportunity to offer new functionality and update the system as often as needed. The new forums solution gives us greater flexibility and allows us to provide you with a better forum experience.
Your Forum Handles, post counts, posts, etc., will be transferred from the existing forums to the new forums. Bookmarks, subscriptions, friends lists, floated threads, etc . . . will most likely not transfer over. If you currently use any of these, you will want to make note of them before the transition, so that you can set them up once again, after the transition occurs.
Forum Ranks (titles) will go thru some changes. However, you will automatically receive the appropriate new ranks and titles upon login. Those of you with specialized forum ranks and privileges will be adjusted after the launch of the new forums or shortly thereafter.
During the transition period, the forums will be down for 48 hours. A single temporary board will be available during this time. Data will not be transferred from the temporary forum, so don’t get too comfortable there. If any of this information changes, we will post the updated information on the official website.
Once the new forums are live we will provide more information on all of the new features.
All of our forums are not changing over on the same day. The Station, EQOA, MxO and Champions of Norrath Forums will transfer over on July 18th. The PlanetSide and Untold Legends will transfer over on July 25th. The EverQuest forums will transfer over on August 1st. The EverQuest II forums will transfer over on August 8th and the Star Wars Galaxy forums transfer over on August 15th.

Before it went down - i briefly saw some boards on the forums that looked new to me. Fro example - "Mos Eisley Cantina"
Did anyone else see that?

Maybe we can get Shayde to bother Kramer again.
Or have we stopped sending him "internet nonsense"
This - he cant deny.
BTW http://www.station.sony.com/en/message_boards.jsp
Sends you to a slightly different URL to the forums but they are still down.
Yep
Hey Obraik - why would you make a sig of such a colossal failure by SOE. The Restuss Event should not be celebrated in any way.
BTW - I'm just kidding - seems that it's what every thread turn into.
We need a "Debate Obraik on the Restuss Event" thread stickied to the top of the page.
LUCAS PULLED THE PLUG ON SOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
CAN I GET A SHOUT!!!!!!!!!!

We are dealing with SOE here...I wouldnt expect it to be clear or correct information
a star wars mmo is such a perfect idea for so many reasons....

F#@# you god. i'm atheist now bitch.

We shoulda expected this. I mean, they launched CU weeks early out of surprise.
Then of course the NGE, surpise. Another early release ahead of time, surprise surprise.
