When I get to the server selection screen, it seems all the servers that are not in Green appear twice. Next to each other.. its wierd

Bug.. or glitch.. or what? anyone else getting it. I mean it doesn't affect anything.

If you're seeing doubles, it's time to put down the crack pipe or drain that bottle of vodka on the sidewalk.

Just kidding.

Yes, servers are showing up as doubles on the login server. It is likely a bug in the login server, but we don't know what it is at this time.

We ask that you remain calm and try not to panic during these stressful times. If in doubt, reformat your entire hard drive.

How many true newbies can turn the words "reformat your hard drive" into a formatted hard drive? I would assume that they either have the knowledge to do it, and know that it's bad, or that they lack the skill to do it, even if they want to.

I worked at a helpdesk before my current one (glutton for punishment) and received the "Okay, I just finished deleting my windows directory and rebooted. Now what?" call. Someone had carefully guided this woman through a complete destruction of her PC. It took guidance, however. She had neither the skill nor understanding to actually do anything of the sort. She had hoped it would get her connected to the internet, thanks to her helpful helpdesk representative.

I hoped someone got fired, but somehow doubt they did.

It is time to step back and stop worrying about what other people will do or think. If someone can't see the humor in Merth's post, then they've got a problem. Not him.
