That is not the same thing
BTW I've logged in to NA server 15min ago with no issues. Thing is I have no collection items there and only lvl 3 toons and zero interest to play there with an empty account.

I also don't understand why. Both should be technically identical.
What puzzles me is that my personal statistics say that the EU server is more often concerned by maintenance extensions than the NA server. There might be technical reasons for it - I don't know much about such things. What I know is that a company should keep track of such developments and preview appropriate ressources in order to avoid this.
Working conditions. Compared to the EU, US working regulations are virtually non-existent.

How do you guys feel about login rewards and dailies? Given that we didn't get any chance to actually play today...

Does anybody know what exactly it is that happens during maintenance? I've never experienced maintenance that was longer than maybe 4 hours in other MMOs and this is so extreme.
You'd think after 10 years I'd be used to EU always being left behind. But no, it's still just as disappointing. At least it has gotten somewhat better, the first five years it was a running gag that "you don't play on maintenance day". That was for regular maintencance

How about 200 crown compensation the same as you gave everyone on the NA servers recently!! Our servers are an absolute embarrassmentMaintenance is still ongoing on for EU servers. No update yet. We updated the maintenance window in the banner above. We'll check back in a little after 2pm ET/ 6:00pm UTC if maintenance is not over around that time.
