    If you follow the link, it's for an emergency hotfix to fix a serious exploit. That's not something they want to leave around for hours to be abused while they wait for a convenient time to bring it down.

    Do you guys know how to read? It wasn't a scheduled maintenance.. it is to fix an exploit.

    So you would rather give exploiters more time to amount more legendary tempers and gold? Consider this a good thing. In swtor they would let exploits run rampant for months before doing anything.

    Thing is, this exploit has been around for how long? I am not convinced that it was so urgent as to require friday evening maintenance.

    What's the matter, didn't get your chance to gather infinite resources?

    Not actually suggesting you were looking to exploit, merely pointing out that leaving the server up as the exploit is rapidly becoming common knowledge would have been a genuinely stupid thing to do.

    Yes because giving exploiters an extra 7 hours is great idea!! Or are you one of them and are upset because you cannot exploit it anymore?

    Its called work and they run a server 24 hours so they have to work 24 hours. 3 rounds or whatever they need. Cant have all of EU players just depending of USA time you know?

    I'm real, cuz I don't have any qualms whatsoever with ZOS fixing stuff with an emergency update. No matter what the time is

    Have some perspective. It's an emergency maintenance to fix an exploit that can ruin the game. This needs to be addressed ASAP instead of waiting for a more convenient time. So in this case, no, they are doing exactly what needs to be done.

    Stop. Calm down. You're being selfish. Step outside your own limited headspace and think about the greater good instead of your own gratification.

    They would not do this now if it weren't necessary. Do you honestly think they don't take into consideration things like peak hours when they decide to do things like this?

    Thank you ZOS for pulling the servers down and fixing this exploit as fast as you could! I also hope you find a way to track those that exploited and take back the stuff at least. :O

    Judging by your posts here, one could easily ask you the same.

    This is ****. They already said that they have data to identify the exploiters. So it is as urgent, simply spam "we know what you are doing and enjoy your ban". so what?
    If you take a look at the lists of game breaking bugs in this game (yes, mostly enjoyable in pvp - and many in this forum already published), this is simply a bad joke. There were many pvp related exploits as well. did they care? did they provide a hot fix? nope

    shutting down servers for this on a friday night at prime time just shows how messed up this whole game and their company is.
