The level 8 error was first discovered in the early part of August 2008. It was originally intended to be part of an escalation system placed into use by IT departments worldwide.[1] The original plan never came to fruition as the financial backers of the project preferred to use the 2 level system of "fixed or not". Currently a level 8 error refers to any problem that is easily identified and solved with minimal interaction. These include but are not limited to a computer mouse not working because it is not plugged in, or not being able to send an email to a specified address because that address is full as per the error message that is returned.[2] Level 8 errors are used in conjunction with modern business practices due to interoffice communication sometimes becoming unbearable.
