Just so you know, you are saying the same things all those 'entitled Americans' said. So I guess that makes you an 'entitled [insert nationality here],' or are you some how clear from being called 'entitled' since you aren't North American?

Beat me to it. A guy whines about bad maintenance time and asks for a change due to his individual experience but Americans are the only "entitled" people on earth. Zzz

It's obvious, right?

Yeah, all we gotta do is figure out how to change the earth's daily rotation from being horizontal to vertical!

Anyone who can't bear to take an evening off from playing once per week or so, should probably consider seeing a therapist. There are days I don't play when the servers are up and running.

And as far as the value of the subscription fee? It was never guaranteed to be for 100% uptime. SE knows that people don't play 24/7. A lot of people will only play a few hours on weekdays. They factor this into their fee as well as planned and unplanned server downtime. I suspect that if they did guarantee 100% uptime, the fee would be a lot more. Perhaps they should charge an hourly fee, or have a meter run while you are logged on, and bill at the end of the month.

Like i said, 2 hours earlier and most regions will be fine with it.

And you don't come off as entitled? Going around insulting people isn't going get people to sympathize with you. I did till I read this. Now I don't. Not a smart move on your part.

Just go to a JP server, that's closet to your timezone anyways. And there are plenty of english players on there. They changed the previous time because it befitted 2/3 timezones (NA/EU) Not to mention that their population is significantly higher than yours. Quit complaining because you chose the wrong server to play on.

But omg could you imagine if they actually sent you one? What do you suppose would be in it, anyways? Maybe just a banana and two oranges? Sounds about right to me.

square watermelons!

I don't mind the times they use to do maintenance, even though it is prime time where i'm at in the states. What I do mind is that it happens more than once weekly, without any information as to what they are having maintenance on. If it's really an emergency, then explain what it is, or else it's not an emergency and can wait. Spend more resources creating new content and bringing it to us faster. That is where your time and money should be going SE.

Calls Americans entitled for asking for maintenance change while asking for maintenance change himself.
