it is 42 min past time for maint to start, and i can still log in. if the early time posted for maint this evening was supposed to be a halloween joke, i am not ammused, i have 2 hrs left on my gold line buffs i wanted to use to get enough coin to level up my prov house.
Also, when was this announced? I just got home from work and am seeing posts on the main page and the Twitter feed that were not there when I logged on this morning... the Twitter one is 5 hrs old and says it is a "reminder" but I cannot find one from before that!
Jeesh people, QUIT WHINING.
Go find something else to do.
It will come back up when it does.
I don't think asking them to continue their previous pattern (of announcing at least 24 hrs in advance), PARTICULARLY when the timing of this maintenance doesn't fit the previous pattern, is an unreasonable request.Quote:

dude epsilon has a point, its only 6 hours and we are back on our islands, i have done my fair share of whining on things but crying about the maintenance is just kinda dumb it happens once a week get used to it...
It's not normally at this time (usually they start at midnight Pacific, not 5 PM), and it IS normally announced well in advance. This maintenance broke BOTH patterns. That's what I'm upset about. That and people like Epsilon acting like saying so is "whining".
Hey!!! Please do not deflect your anger onto me.
I am simply trying to point out that what is, is.
Plus trying to get you whiners to SHUT IT!!!

Methinks you will live, grasshopper.
Take derp breaths and go find something meaningful to do in your life for a few hours.
You say ur not whining?
Well them stop using that self-entitled whiney tone.Quote:

Well, I am sorry you feel that way.
I am simply utilizing the tools on hand to practice my PVP.Quote:

We have asked before that if there was a NEED for maintenance outside the regular schedule, that we be notified through all available media 24 hours in advance. That happened exactly twice.Quote:

You want a 24 hours notice that they are going to roll back the game for 24 hours. I'd much rather have a game that was FIXED and working correctly. The points about communication lagging are valid though. After all, how long does it take to post a facebook notice or a twitter notice. Even an in-game warning should only take a few minutes, and I only want a 15 minute notification of critical maintenance IN-GAME, so I can stop running adventures and not suffer unnecessary losses.
I do think that in game TIME should stop during the maintenance period though.
