Cant login to minecraft!

Hello,

I have been trying to login into minecraft but it keeps saying cant connect to minecraft.net. i restarted my pc, anyone else have this problem or know how i could fix it.

Now we play the waiting game.

same problem

http://xpaw.ru/mcstatus/

i went on www.help.mojang.com and it cant even check the status for the servers and stuff, and when i go on minecraft.net it takes for ever to load.

You would think with the amount of people that have bought minecraft and the money they are making they would be able to stop this from happening.

I am getting soooooo unbelievably sick of seeing threads like this.

im pretty sure everyone has this problem and mojang is probably fixing bugs this has happened before

Well Spoken

When i go to http://help.mojang.com/ it says this:

• 
  
  
  Minecraft.net
  
  Currently unable to check service status.
• 
  
  
  Mojang accounts website
  
  Currently unable to check service status.
• 
  
  
  Minecraft logins
  
  Currently unable to check service status.
•

• 
  
  
  Minecraft multiplayer sessions
  
  Currently unable to check service status.
•

  Currently unable to check service status.

Thats why i made this thread coz no one can seem to explain this to me.

It's not exactly Mojang's fault that their stuff is down sometimes. They have their servers hosted through Amazon. There could be an issue on Amazon's end.

According to the status page I use, their website and login are down.

Sir, sir calm down. I'm only asking you to stay calm and hug a creeper.

Iv'e have had this problem for a few hours, and i am starting to get really pissed off, whether the problem is on Mojang or Amazons side! i can wait, its a good thing i got tekkit so I'm not bored out of my skull.<--- that shows how much i love EMC!Anyway, i personally think its on Amazons side because this hardly ever used to happen as far as I'm concerned, when they hosted on whatever they used to. even when it did happen, it was up within a half an hour.
You would think with all the money they make off Minecraft that they would update or upgrade there hosting software or what-not. you guys agree with that?
Edit: don't start a war over this. its just my PERSONAL opinion and everyone has a right to speak there mind.

Well... No need to swear, or get this angry.

Hey guys! http://xpaw.ru/mcstatus/
its 9:35 EST and the logins are finally backup!!
i'm not sure how long they will stay up, or if the fixed the issues so if they go back off-line, i'll post again.
