    I just luv hearing people complain that the game isn't running.

    So many peeps that have no lives, other than ingame.

    So many things you should be doing, instead of waiting and complaining about a game to start.

    Go take a shower, its been at least a week.

    Clean the room or house, I know it has to need some attention.

    GO BACK TO School and try to learn some manners.

    Go outside and play, someday you will wish you did.

    Im one of those people with no life. Why? Because Im retired. And this is my leisure time activity that I paid for and wish to utilize. I find it infuriating that people think it would be so much more productive to spend hundreds of thousands on woodworking equipment to build lawn furniture that no one buys any more.

    Maybe you're just too young to realize that the amount of money spent on the game is a lot less expensive than going to the movies, out to dinner, ad infinitum ad nausium. But Im a scrooge and this is more rewarding to me than any of the afore mentioned activities.

    I've been outside. Hiked the Pacific Crest Trail, scuba dived in the Puget Sound and various lakes, river rafted, mountain climbed, been on top of Mt Rainier, survived Mt St Helens, was in the military, had 5 kids.... I could go on but it was a good life that you seem to think I never had. Please try not to exhibit such pretentiousness in the future. You think you know and you really dont.

    So why would it take significantly longer to bring up NA than EU servers? Once you have a fix to whatever went wrong with today's patch, you apply it to both, start both, and would expect them to come up about the same time... would you not?

    Somehow, it just always does.

    Hey all, apologies for the delay in updating. We're currently having QA test the NA server to make sure we're solid, and are planning to open around 5pm EDT (less than an hour from now).

    From 1pm EDT, to 4pm EDT, to now 5pm EDT.... until the next problem which will make it 8pm EDT.

    I'm sorry, but you all are a joke. People thanking you for your vague responses are also a joke. No way should any of you be thanked for such a poorly run system. The whole purpose of your existence is to run this game for those who have paid for it. Every week it is one thing or another for the longer and longer down times. At this rate, you will not have many players left to continue your existence on the internet.

    You weren't around when EverQuest 1 had their legendary downtimes, were you? Their downtime made the game unplayable for 24-48 hours. And yet, here the game is... 17 years later, going strong.

    Try again, though.

    I never played that game, nor would I if the game was unplayable 24-48 hours at a time. I'm sure it would be going stronger if they didn't have such high unplayable times. Losing one paying customer due to long down times from a business sense is one too many. This is one reason why I will never be a stock holder in the gaming industry, as I would be demanding answers to such downtimes and possible loss of revenue.

    Entitled much?

    For what I pay for? Yes. It is my right to do complain for a service I pay for and not get on a constant bases. I invested my 3 months, and after that, I couldn't care less if this game succeeds or not.

    -2 for grammar and spelling. +10 for getting "couldn't care less" correct. It's the little things.

    Like a winner, with nothing better to say, you become the grammar police. Good job Mr. Perfect.

    P.s.- Please correct all my spelling mistakes for me, so I can learn from my mistakes.

    Lol the people that are acting Aggressive have clearly never played a MMO before or even understand maintenance for that reason.. *** happens folks they are obviously working on it. Id rather they fix it once and move on then half has and can barely play...
    Perhaps it's you that's inexperienced. It's maintenance. It's not a patch, not an update, nothing of that sorts. It's a routine job that takes place each and every week and some fail-safe should be in place for what should be... aye... you guessed it; a routine job.

    Defend them when people complain for extended downtimes due to patches, updates, rollbacks, ... Agreed. Do so whenever you feel like it. But defending them here and now? This should never last for as long as it does. Not ever. And most certainly not as often as it seems to be happening here.

    I love the game no more, no less than you, but defending them for this is not doing anyone any favors. This is not ok, under not a single circumstance.

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom I was able to log on, take a keep, feed a cathorse, and not die. I logged out since it was time to flip the chicken and corn, just wanted to give some positive feedback and a job well done to you, @ZOS_GinaBruno, and the rest of the ZOS team.

    You know what's funny? When this happens at work the response is completely opposite of what we see here.

    It's all "Woohoo, extra day off! Nah, we don't need an explanation why it's down. Please, take all the time you need to fix it."
