Just an idea here ... trying not to be sound sarcastic but... scheduling maintenance on the 2 days off people have for the Easter weekend is not a good idea. Every gamer will tell you that we wait for those holidays to get our game on.
To clarify for those that are confused and do not want to read through all of the posts. They are doing maintenance today instead of tomorrow to fix, as the patch notes specify, many quests that are broken and blocking player progress throughout the game. While it is a holiday weekend, I think it is more important to fix these issues sooner than later so people can move forward instead of logging into something broken.
Do you think the developers themselves would prefer to work on a holiday weekend? Do you really believe they would take time out of THEIR holidays with friends and families to work on a server...and not that the issues being fixed are so game-breaking letting them sit for a day or so will cause more harm?
