Totally out of proportion, out of common sense with usual zero communication from devs. :s

    Hmm... seems like every time you ask the Devs about a status update on the maintenance, they simply Bolt-Escape with the Elder Scroll of Answer =)

    Perhaps a guesstimate would be nice? "We expect servers to be online in appx 6 hours" or somesuch?

    Would be nice if they could put out a ETA there at lest. Even if they cant keep the ETA, as its an estimatedtime of arrival, its better then have no clue if its going to take 1-2 or 6-12 hours.

    So, for once, there is an actual update that indeed says "Sorry, still on it, more soon" which shows an improvement in communicating with us customers and ..poof! All out of proportion!

    You know what's out of proportion?
    People that whine about the lack of fixes, then demand a fix ASAP and once the maintenance for that is going on, rage and whine about the maintenance going on and "ruining their lives" (slight exaggeration, bu it's the feel I get here).

    That. That is out of proportion.

    Ooh! Ooh! Can I play?

    We expect servers to be online when it's done™

    If they don't know, they can't tell you. As soon as they do they will tell us.

    Oh, okay. I would've thought someone in IT would be giving someone in Management some kind of timescale. Because if they aren't, they aren't running a business.

    Quote from the German Server maintenance 29/04/2014 Thread:

    Wir werden den europäischen und den nordamerikanischen Megaserver morgen, am Dienstag, den 29. April, für Wartungsarbeiten herunterfahren.
    Der europäische Megaserver wird um 6:00 Uhr deutscher Zeit heruntergefahren. Zum gegenwärtigen Zeitpunkt erwarten wir, dass er im Laufe des Vormittags wieder verfügbar sein wird.
    Der nordamerikanische Megaserver wird um 14:00 Uhr deutscher Zeit herunterfahren. Zum gegenwärtigen Zeitpunkt erwarten wir, dass er spätestens am frühen Abend wieder bereit sein wird.
    Während der Wartungsarbeiten werden wir einen neuen Patch mit Korrekturen und Aktualisierungen aufspielen. Hier könnt ihr die vollständigen Patch-Notizen lesen:
    http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/89406. Die Patchnotizen werden zu Beginn der Wartung veröffentlicht.

    Wir werden euch informieren, wenn die Server wieder verfügbar sind.

    G00gle Translate says:

    At the present time, we expect that it will be available again during the morning.

    in CET its still not 12 =) soooo...

    But anyways, I'm not really happy at the moment at all... wanna play =)

    I do, but we are talking about what they are supposed to do, not what I am supposed to do! They need to bring their online service back online regardless of what I do.

    The maintenance normally lasts an hour or two. Something has probably gone a bit wrong.

    Ultimately, go outside and do something. Make a coffee. Read a newspaper. It will get fixed, likely very soon.

    Oh joy, and when the server goes up there will be 4-7 bots running around in the Dhalmora vincinity within hours. I swear, they might as well post a gm there 24/7.

    What probably went wrong was that their chitchatting over tea and coffee got pretty heated and the one person occasionaly taking care of the server went to the restroom. You don't think that the whole team is working on with great focus to bring the servers online, do you? ;)
