    The question on everybody's mind:

    Can we get a rough ballpark ETA? Because you ladies and gentleman have been dangling a carrot in front of us.

    That's why people are agitated. Some of us have been here almost 8 hours waiting around, and seeing "Soon(tm)" messages.

    If someone had told us 8 hours ago "We'll be down for a while, please check in in the morning" I would have gone to sleep.

    Totally understandable and fair, @Sarenia. You're right. We'll keep that in mind if we have a long downtime like this again. For now, to be on the safe side, we're looking at a few hours, possibly less.

    i believe because you cant get a bow in the cold harbor/tutorial mission

    We just got a bunch of Downtime Defenders posts stuck into this thread. I would guess the devs are doing something to the forums.

    BTW this is a combination of both scheduled and emergency maintenance. Mostly they are reducing ways to level up quickly.

    WHAT? Why? °A°

    If this is true, probably because rushing to end game with a game that has not even "officially" released yet is bad. While there may be some End Game content it usually is not enough to keep people from setting fire to the barns and screaming about the devs not caring. a lot of new MMO's have population dips after launch because "There is no endgame!QQ"

    i'm not usually a trollish type of person or the type of person to enjoy schadenfreude, but the intensity of sincere butthurt some of you guys are experiencing dude to giving a *** about other people in this thread giving you sarcastic or know-it-all or otherwise assholish replies to your comments is just breath-taking. just ignore them, why even dignify it with a pissed off response? unless you are just feeding into it so we can reach 100 pages before we're back up. in that case, carry on, i guess.
    i disagree wholeheartedly, you sir are a fop :expressionless: i find your face as offensive to my vision as your rear is to my nose.

    There are people at Lvl. 50 already who abused the game and skipped all the content. So this is a good thing. Can't wait for all those people to be bitching about a lack of game content lol.

    Had them last night. Leftover chicken tetrazzini tonight, chicken things with marinara and pasta tomorrow.
    Every time someone swears, it gets replaced with three asterisks. There's only one three-letter swear word that I know of. I read that in the place of every set of three asterisks. It makes for some amusing sentences.

    Seriously? This has been discussed multiple times by different people. At 12, Jessica said an ETA of 1-2 hours. Read back a few pages :) (By few i mean possibly like 20 lol)

    I've been reading the updates the entire time. By ETA what I mean is, it has been long enough now that you should know more specifically than "A few hours, maybe a couple". I'm referring to an actual ETA as in "The servers will be back online at 1:00 EDT"

    As in a professional ETA not a "guestimate". As I said, 12 hours is too long and its time to wrap this up now before it becomes something I'm actually quite annoyed with vs. starting to feel edgy about.

    Actually - when debugging a system any ETA is a guess... Until you find the problem there is no way to know what needs to be done to fix it. Then once that problem is fixed you have to test.

    If everything passes... then you are done. If not - troubleshoot again.

    So - a professional ETA on a software issue that is unknown is always a guesstimate. Please note that the E stands for "Estimate"

    was a post about the fix being deployed and they are now (then) playtesting it.
    presumably the playtests failed...

    They said as of noon the eta would be around 1-2 more hours. http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/64824/eso-north-american-megaserver-downtime-4-1-to-4-2 is the link to the page that says it.
