| warz | Only because battle.net has been a small portion of my life (as a hobby, i guess), and vl was an even smaller portion of the battle.net portion, and portions are oh so very interesting... I was just wondering what the [vL] account's total logged online time is. I'm guessing it's probably the number one account on bnet for online time. I'm sure I'm not the only one interested. Just thought I'd ask and see if any of yall'd be nice enough to share this bit of information with me. | April 8, 2006, 7:16 AM |

By logging on multiple instances of the same account, you can accrue online time at an accelerated rate. Many clans with multiple-operator channels probably beat out [vL] on that basis. | April 8, 2006, 3:28 PM |
| Yegg | I have a question out of curiosity. Is it really that hard to have a higher online time than any other user (not including accounts logged on more than once)? If you have a static IP and a UPS with a pretty high uptime, can't you easily have for instance, 200 days online as long as Battle.net doesn't have an unlikely server issue? | April 8, 2006, 4:19 PM |

[/quote] Servers restart at an unknown regularity, and patches for most clients occur something like every XXX days. You probably won't be able to get a very high uptime. | April 8, 2006, 6:29 PM |

| peofeoknight | It's hard to get a 200 day uptime anyway, ups or not. I've just never had an isp (or system) quite that stable. My records has prolly been two or three weeks w/ out a loss of connectivity. | April 10, 2006, 1:12 AM |
| rabbit | He doesn't mean uptime, he said "total logged time". | April 10, 2006, 10:31 PM |
