I dunno, you start counting I think I'm up to 28 times in the first 6 months (I'm only up to May 30th Thank you Darth Hater for keeping archives but my eyes are bleeding now!).

See a list of Dev Tracker posts referring to Servers being unavailable, down for extended maintenance or getting a middle of the day restart below (Patches do not count as regular maint).

a 1 and a 0 have been mixed up somewhere in the process now they have to go back through lines of code and figure out where this 1 and 0 are and rewrite it so it works. Simple programming gone wrong by the fat guy with sausage fingers.
Mmmmm..... sausage.

Wonder how many people will leave the game over this?
The dev's of this game are demi-gods. We mere paying mortal customers need not bother them with trivial matters like performance or communicating. They act unilaterally on metrics they don't share. They have determinded stuttering to be caused by you. Demi-gods don't mis code. You players are the problems.

Now be gone or they will not turn the servers back on. They are sick of you whining about it being near unplayable. Now its unplayable completely. Problem fixed.

Last time I see something like that was when hackers attacked SOE ...

I hope the best for the hackers!!!

Maybe they can consolidate my characters... as BW can't.

well it depends if they are using a static route ... if not then what you are saying is possible but cisco routers use the quickest route less programmed otherwise (to static) static is more secure ... however... well problems like this could bring down part of the network ... when the packets get to the other side it sends a message got them all stop sending packets or hi you forget to send me packet 24235 out of 567893 ... if their router went down and no more packets can get through they self destruct in 30 (or 15 depending on programming) hops and send self again... well atm i am only learning with old routers and their programming so i could be wrong with some of the details ... but i no what you mean with the ability it has to overload an area (well i could think about they was hacked and they are suffering a DOS attack...)

Curious -- I was a big KOTOR fan also, which is why I started playing as early as possible. Why'd you wait for almost a year after launch to play?
