As the network Fut Coins failure entered its third day, RIM toldWired in a Swtor Credits statement that the messaging and browsing delays being experienced were causedby a core switch failure within RIM infrastructure. Although thesystem is designed to failover to a back-up switch, the failoverdid not function as previously tested.
As a result, a large backlog of data was generated and we arenow working to clear that backlog and restore normal service asquickly as possible, the statement reads. We apologize for anyinconvenience and we will continue to keep you informed.
