The OP has a point, If the DEV Team can respond to unimportant topics they could at least give us some form of update, whether it just be "The power problem in Japan is increasingly getting worse & until the situation starts to get better here we will unfortunately be keeping the servers down. We are sorry for not being able to give more information at this time but as soon as we know more we will let everyone know. Thank you for your support. SE"

Something like that would most likely keep a lot of people happy & prevent these threads having to be started everyday 4 times a day.
