Alright... I just started a new character after having quit my 60+ Paladin a while ago and I'm quite dissapointed that I can't get on to play right now. I really wish this stuff would go more smoothly and we'd all be able to log on after 10 hours of maintenance. It's been 11 hours 40 minutes now, which is a long time... but I understand it's all congestion as the whole world is in a mad rush to get their fix after 10 hours without the game. As dissapointed as I am and as much as I really want to get on and start leveling my new account, I do not blame SE nor get angry. Because I've gotten used to all the maintenance and server issues, I've found a secondary game to play to keep my occupied, it isn't online, thus not dependant on servers, nor other people and it is a great game. I recommend you all go out and get Fable: The Lost Chapters for PC, since obviously, if we are posting here we all have a PC. The game is fun, engaging and passes the time very effectively. I have no complaints when I have Fable to turn to during down time.

Why are ppl so concerned about there raiting? Does Allakhazam fairy come give your gil if your rating is over a certin lvl? Can you not make new posts? I really dont understand the rating system and why ppl whine like little ******* when they get karma bombed. If ppl dont like you who gives a ****. Well i am done spamming login for now.

Good luck to all who try to get in. ^^

I am on Comcast, but I think from all of these posts it has nothing to do with your connection problems. I am upset that Thursday is my ONE AND ONLY night to play, and I am forced to read forums instead. I mean come on, if I read the forums tonight, what am I supposed to do at work tomorrow? J/K

well I just installed the game for the first time, and now all this crap, it isnt looking good, looks like I may have wasted my $30


Its the people like you I feel the worst about. I'm sorry you have to face the kind of problems we face all the time. If you can't stand things like this just quit now. Not worth your time really, unless you can learn to just deal with it like the rest of us, the game is fun, when the companies servers aren't being pieces of **** that is.

Instead of being whiny little ******** why dont you grow up and quit the game if you have so many problems with the company?
I dont see a point in saying a company sucks and continuing to give them money??

As for you, your either one of the people who aren't affected by this craptacular service (in which case you should not post at all), or your one of the people who are rarely affected by it (in which case you still should not post at all). The people who complain the most are the people who are constantly affected by the server crap, and yes, believe it or not there is a lot of it nowadays, just check the news info on the POL viewer.

Who said anything about anyone whining? We just saying how we feel about SE doing it job lately. I don't mind several POL Error because they usually backup quick. But it's just annoy me to log on and see it almost daily now.

It's just you that need to grow up and stop being a moron with your useless post. Maybe you should be the first one to quit if you care so much.

I've played games that have downtimes for server maintenance every week. I've also played ones that have downtime every *day*.

FFXI's servers go *much* longer than that between significant maintenance downtimes.

SE has great services and stability.

woah woah woah. Don't start throwing cyberspace punches yet. The server is/could be experiecing problems. You just have to wait until they can fix it. I beleive it is due to the high amount of traffic on the server from people updating their game. Once people have done this you'll be able to get back on. Otherwise it could be like last time where the server was "congested". Just chill and everything will get better. *thumbsup*

I don't think this problem has anything to do with congestion. Just look at the last version update. It went so smoothly, everyone was crying in waves, /cheering SE for making it so smooth. I don't remember a single person complaining about it cause everyone was able to log in and update without a problem. But after a 'back bone' change, whatever that means, happens, more problems start then there was before. Thats just messed up.

How would you feel if SE ran your internet connection and twice a week they said undergoing Maintenace can't use internet for the next 10 hours. THen when the 10 hours was up they said sry still having problems? I personally would be rather pissed if i put forth money for the service and was not granted the service. On another note everyone puts forth money to play this game. They are supplying a Company that gives irrelevent information and is basically saying. Thank you for your money here's some DOWNTIME to vent on.

I've been with this game for the last 3 years. I've seen maintenances and this is far worse then ever before. In the last Month that i've had this game i've had maybe 3 days outta the week to even sit down and play it. Out of those 12 days there has been Maintenance on a good 7 of them. I pay 16 dollars a month for something that i can enjoy when i'm not slaving over corp. america. When i have my first real day off in awhile i always look forward to FFXI. BUt to sit here and read that they'll have a 10 hour maintenance today and then to proceed with trying to log on for the last 2 hours when there wasn't maintenance would also leave me rather urked.

I'm not tryin to downgrade SE or praise them. People are allowed to Vent. As someone previously stated it is rather sad that every MMORPG i've played they have a forum where your updated with issues. SE is the only MMORPG i've played that has no such Forum. What is SE doing with our money? God only really knows. I would imagine there tech support team is having a ball laughing there A$$'s off at all our whining ^^

I still havent even get my game to updated yet, just got back from work and think I update it then. So I get less traffic and no POL Error. Lol, come home POL Error and can't update the game or get it going. I think most people already have their game updated, so I don't think it's a high traffic of people updating for the events.

Some where in some IRC network:

Scriptkiddie 1: "Hehz folkz SE just upgraded their noobz serverz backbozez."
Scriptkiddie 2: "Let haxor~! Haxor them!"
Scriptkiddie 1: "!hackSE"
Bots on comprimsed Windows PC 1: "Repsonding ready to strike!"
Bots on comprimsed Windows PC 2: "Repsonding ready to strike!"
Bots on comprimsed Windows PC 3: "Repsonding ready to strike!"
Bots on comprimsed Windows PC 4: "Repsonding ready to strike!"
Bots on comprimsed Windows PC 5: "Repsonding ready to strike!"

The above is happens everyday in some IRC network; target not neccessary is SE. It is meant to be somewhat humourous and also realistic. :O
