    Maybe if people just accept the days as they are.. but they are changing the scheduled days many times in order to adjust to player feedback. People should be praising their efforts to get the most satisfied customer. I'm pretty sure they do not like changing their maintenance days over and over.

    If you do not like the days.. I guess send feedback, as they are clearly looking at it to determine the best times/days.

    I will never accept two days completely ruined by maintenance.. just because of where i live, good luck with subscriptions from Oceanics its almost theft.

    Car != online service.
    Game != online service

    you paid for an online service not just a game. don't make augments with comparisons hat are not even handled in the same business sense.

    and defult in a car like that would warrant a massive recall because of safety. This game will not kill you, but your blood pressure might

    I highly doubt they will continue to have 2 days, or even 1 day a week as the game progresses and gets more stable. However, if a couple 2-3 hour downtimes a week are completely unacceptable to you, then perhaps a MMO in its infancy is not for you.(yes I am aware on occasion it may exceed the normal time)

    I am perfectly content on patches/maintenance to improve the games bugs/stability, even if it were to fall in my normal gaming schedule.

    I happened to read about the change in the forums beforehand, so this didn't affect me directly.

    What I don't understand. Why don't they announce changes like that, unscheduled Maintenances and new Patches through their client? I mean, we get all the "hype" about Craglorn and Fan-Art right there when we start up ESO, but we just don't get informed about the really important stuff?

    Very wise words... to bad alot people... both kids and adults can't see it like this... oh well... got to wonder how they react to adversety in real life :)

    The statement "if you put enough monkeys behind enough typewriters... sooner or later one will produce the works of Shakespeare" has sadly been proven utterly wrong by the internet...

    It's no longer a coincidence, ZOS are deliberately pushing servers offline during EU holidays.

    Routine maintenance: Ok Let's bring the servers down like we do every week.
    Scheduled maintenance: Ooo! We need to get this patch out. Schedule a server downtime in two hours.
    Emergency maintenance: Oh crap! Bring it down now! Do it! Do it! Do it!

    Myself and others already have posted this multiple times, but I feel your need to vent. That being said, they are sticking to the NA schedule this week? Baby steps? Lol.

    It's not a great sign that the first page of the customer support forum is pretty dead though. Either the game's already lost more players than I thought, or people have just stopped complaining and are playing out their free time since it seems to fall on mostly deaf ears.

    ^This. I have never seen a forum population lose interest so fast. In game doesn't seem to look much better either. It appears to be a combination of things and those things are things that developers should have learned from years of other developers failures. I am almost 50 and just learned that I have to grind the equivalent of 100 more levels only at 100th of the speed? Forget maintenance, the real issues are what's killing things.

    IMO the population is more dense than ever...some of the cities and quest areas are really humming, and zone chat is always going.

    These forums are really kinda a mess, and besides, the general population doesn't give a hoot about any forum/s, they just wanna be in game.
