    Dear OP,

    I also play that other mmo,vanilla,from before any expansion,there was no WEEKLY 8 hour maintenance in wow,never.
    Nice try.
    WoW had weekly 6 hour maintenance, that could often be extended to 8 hours, and sometimes longer.

    Servers take a lot of work to keep running smooth and ESO has not had the most stable servers at times, so if this helps it helps but nothing is perfect. Still I gotta jet here to make breakfast, so you take care and I was just making a suggestion. Still don't know how anyone can like battle royale games, RPG's are the way to go that is just me. You pick your own poison, also how do you not find LoL's community highly toxic? I left that game because of all the Jackholes on it when you made even on little mistake. Regardless not feeling attacked, just woke up and dealing with severe allergies, so I got worse to deal with and I am outta green.

    That took quite some time to deal with the toxic people in League,best is to ignore them and focus on winning.
    Its one of the worst and toxic gaming comunity in League,sadly have to agree there.
    can understand people leaving the game for that reason.

    Well that's a flat-out lie.

    ESO doesn't have maintenance every week, generally every 2-3 weeks (although sometimes we'll go for a whole month between maintenances). Most of the time that maintenance is closer to 4 hours than to 8. This is a significantly longer maintenance than normal - this happens maybe every couple of months.

    So weekly guaranteed 6 hour maintenance, and often 8 hours or even longer is vastly more often than in ESO.

    I just stick to my rpg's I am a very narrow focused niche gamer, outside of rpg's few franchises perk my interest and very few even engage me. If a game has no plot, or is a mindless grind like MOBA's and BR games are... They have zero interest to me, besides Fartnite is causing my nephew to go into some very bad behavior and well..... Lowers my opinion of Battle Royale even more to the point I'd like the game banned. Just my two cents, rather than deal with the toxic as hell LoL community I said goodbye and I was doing pretty well with Soraka.

    Yeah the LoL community is a toxic cesspit, I was pretty good with Soraka even once held the middle with her solo. Still I avoid the toxic communities but it's this getting angry over things you can't control leading to issues of Fartnite kids getting their computers taken away because their acting so horribly. Frankly I'll stick to my rpg's and my certain shooter franchises, a game needs to have plot and depth and not just mindless grinding.
