BigxBigx Member Posts: 148

That is crap to think servers down for 24 hours and no comp time. Never even heard of some servers going down. To think I left daoc after toa, went to wow stayed there until few weeks after bg release, left cause didnt really feel like starting from 0 on new server to goto wow and this happens 2nd day back. ::::27::::::25::. To top it off forums are down to see what servers are down. Whatever

    Should be 2 Eastern. 1 central, 12 mountain, 11 Pacific.

    Why Blizzard uses pacific standard time while making these estimates is beyond me, but it takes half a second to do the math to check what time frame you're looking at.

    "The following list of realms will be taken down tomorrow for a period of twenty-four hours starting at 5:00AM PDT. We realize that this is inconvenient; however, this downtime is necessary to address the recent issues adversely affecting performance for players on these realms. All World of Warcraft players on these realms will receive a one-day time extension for the downtime caused by this maintenance. All other realms will be brought back up at the normally scheduled time of 11:00AM. We thank you for your patience and understanding."

    Wow! 24 hours, WTF, way to go Blizzard, w00t w00t! Is this why they just added 3 new realms? Or is this a ploy to get people to join the 3 new realms? I smell conspiracy.

    Normally they do it based on where there main company running the game is based out of. Which I believe is in California.

    I thought the Server boxers were physically in Rhode Island or something on the east cost, but no matter.

    My response was a direct one to the second poster.

    Damn our conspiracy has been busted.  err I mean....

    Dear WoW Players,

    Ok, you got us.  WoW only has 3 servers, a regular, PvP and a RP server.  No matter what server you click on you end up going to one of these 3 servers, you may get different character screens, but you still end up in the same world.  And truth be told, we don't have 3.5 million customers, in fact we only have 270, all the WoW posts you've ever read and replied to where most likely made by a special program that we wrote to help promote our game.  All the players you run into while in game are bots with slightly more AI than the mob bots.  Ever wonder why Leeroy just ran into that room full of eggs?  Another marketing ploy of ours.

    Thank you for your continues support,

    Blizzard

    I was like 10 feet from the Inn to get Rest points for this. During maintenaince can you guys consider giving us rest credit. OR put a message accross the screen warning us your taking server down in a few minutes giving us time to run to Inn. Some of us dont monitor Chat all the time. Some of us dont live by WOW maintenance schedules either so a simple line accross screen would be cool if possible. Just something to consider please. I will try and be more concious of schedule times. I dont wanna start an argument here and last post people took every oppurtunity they could to flame. For the record this is a very cool site and I appreciate the effort put into keeping mmorpg peops current on whats goin on in the mmorpg worlds. Thanks and Im sorry if last post was taken wrong. Cya.

    imo they should grant everyone full rest for bringing servers down 24 hours like they did before. however i wasent logged on when servers went down but usually they remind you like every min when serves are going down its kind of hard to miss.

    Having 3.5 million subscribers might have something to do with it.

    Well I'm certainly not gonna make a new char.  Guess I'll have to go pick up one of my prior hobbies til the game comes back.

    The servers go down for weekly maintenence everey Tuesday. Its nothing new. These select servers are being taken down for an extended period because so many gamers complained that there were issues with them. So they need to assess any problems and fix them. It happened before in January as well if you weren't around in the game then. Blizzard then took the servers down for 24hrs and then credited those players with an additional 4 days to their suscription. Take a day off and get some free money.....stop whining.

  • ShreddiShreddi Member UncommonPosts: 320

    Well Anindel, you win the prize for being the first name caller/flamer on the post. Probably the only. No one is whining it was a question or kinda a suggestion. If its no its no. No big deal. Yes we should know when the servers are comming down and stick ourselves in the Inn. Thing is we get caught up in the game and miss the time.
