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?

We've been making many small improvements over the past few months, and have found that performance has actually improved quite a bit. You can see specific comments from our Lead PvP Designer in a few threads such as this or this.

What? EQ legendary downtimes? EQ2 and WoW had crazy downtimes I played EQ since beta and after a DLC they would have a 20hour downtime, maintenance would be Wednesday at 1am PST. Are you being sarcastic about 17 years later going strong thing because do people still play?
The game still has a strong player base. Considering the game is still up after 17 years, I'd say it's still going strong. Hell, on my server there, there's tons of people to group with (ya know, instead of being anti-social and complaining that there's no groups around).

Thanks so much for your patience during today's extended maintenance, and we do apologize for the frustration it's caused. The North American PC/Mac megaserver is now back online and open.
When this kind of thing happen, I wish my riding skill got leveled up automatically every 20h as long as I have the 250g on my inventory ~.~
