So another Maint Update, and what a surprise... 17:00 GMT.

At least this one is planned ahead, but when you look back through the history of maint, even all of the All Worlds Emergeny Maint is carried out at 17:00 GMT.

I sometimes can't believe it when I see the announcements 10 hours in advance that so-called "Emergency Maint" will be carried out at 17:00 GMT. If it's that much of an emergency, it should be done immediately!

But yeah, many people have had this rant before, and I'm sure many will have it again, but for the couple of months following an expansion release, it's almost impossible to plan anything for in the evenings GMT as it's almost guaranteed to be interrupted by more maint.

All that I ask is that SE stops being racist and waiting for the beloved JP players to go to bed so that maint doesn't disrupt their play time. We all pay to play! Spread the maint out and have maybe 4 6-hour rotations for the maint.

eg. you do 1 at 17:00 GMT, then the next one will be at 23:00 GMT, the next at 05:00 GMT then the 4th at 11:00 GMT, then do the rotation over again.
