    Just a side comment, I used to always wonder why people came here and complained about the server instability with ESO. I played at launch for a few months and came back last April or so and never thought their server stability was that much of an issue. However, these past few months have been seriously bad. Between the DDOS, them taking down servers and piggybacking a Monday patch on a Saturday / Sunday, and so on - seriously, I get it.

    This sort of stability is something I would expect from a newly launched title during their first couple months, not an established MMO that has had 3 yrs to get their *** together.

    I still cannot log in. We absolutely deserve an extension to the double AP event and a discount on our monthly sub.

    The double AP event is for testing. Whether or not they extend it is up to them, but it's not like the holiday events.

    Testing or not, it's a limited time event that was scheduled. That schedule is seriously getting screwed up. I seriously don't get the defense on ZOS, or any other game company for that case. They don't even need to pay a PR company, b/c they have fans blindly defending them.

    A company issues their customers a service, I pay for that service, that service gets disrupted, that service should be extended. ZOS is not the underdog here.

    It doesn't matter. It's specifically designated for testing. Whether we deserve it or not's up to them. I agree that something should be done, however your insinuation of me blindingly defending them is so far off base. Actually read the thread. Cool your jets. Just because I point out that the AP event is for testing doesn't mean I'm on their side.

    If that's the case, then it's up to them to decide any and everything. Look, you're not changing my opinion. Testing or not, it's a service that is limited and has been promoted during the time I'm paying. I'm a customer. This is what I expect from this company. I don't agree with you.

    You don't agree with me? That's cool too. Your logic doesn't make sense to me, and I see a lot of that logic not just on this forum, but many MMO forums. Also, I don't need to read a 31 page thread to respond to your response towards me. I get text can come off poorly, but I'm honestly just responding to what I'm reading.

    GOT A FIX FOR YOU GUYS!

    After hearing it was regional I tried to use my VPN to put me in California (origianlly Floriday). As soon as I logged in from "california" I came right in.

    Try using a VPN to reroute it.

    This worked for me also, I'm in pacific NW.

    Interesting. Here in Ohio I am still a no go but pop on to my VPN and choose a Canada endpoint and here we go. Very strange this.
    I am currently worried for the future of ESO. Population seems like it is in free fall and the cancellation of the North America in-person gathering feels very much like pulling the plug. Kudos on fixing the in-game economy though. Clearly whatever gold shenanigans were happening the last couple years are fixed.

    I never said I was trying to change your 'opinion'. You must be new here, so I'll explain it for you.

    Doube AP Event is for testing. Doesn't matter what your opinion is, if they feel like extending it they will. It's not a service that's staying. You're just going to have to accept that and stop getting huffy when someone points that out to you. And you don't want to read a 31 page thread and insinuate something? That's cute, considering it's on the last five pages? I don't support laziness. Also, I'm a paying customer too. I'm fully well aware what they'll extend and what they won't. There's no achievements for this event. There's no reason FOR this event aside specifically FOR testing. Don't like it? That's your problem.

    As for logic, I need an LOL button, because that's just adorable. xD

    You realize you didn't pay for the double AP "event", right? This isn't some special service or package, and it hardly constitutes the term Event. I knew we would see some "Extend AP event" threads the moment I got home from work, and saw the servers had been down. ZOS needs to get their stuff together, rather than focusing on paying into peoples' overblown sense of entitlement. The double AP was compensation for cutting off our CP.

    And buddy? Overblown, grandiose, condescending superiority only comes across properly if you are actually superior. Keep trying. <3

    About events, promotions, etc...

    The minimum that a SERIOUS company does is to reimburse its customers for any problems that are not caused by those. Just see how Pearl Abyssis and kakao games work, or QQ, all of which make it a point to reward ALL customers for infinitely smaller problems that we find in ESO, I mean BDO and Moonlight Blade. If the server crashes for a simple time, for example, BDO gives you a myriad of things, including game money.

    But, they are serious companies, they care about their customers. And yes, you have every right to be angry and stop thinking that 'Sheep behavior' is the best in all situations in life.

    Been a few hours and I still can't login. I don't even get the announcement updates thing either.

    Bright side, I caught up on some other games I've been putting a side. Really bummed though, the whole money thing and such.
    Looking for broken things in hopes they may be fixed. I've given up, my game literally works differently from yours.
