The bigger problem these issues are causing

While everyone else is too busy arguing that they deserve refunds, or that square can do no wrong, I cant help but feel for the people who have picked the game up, in hopes of using the free trial to decide if they will end up getting a full subscription.

I know there are plenty of people who are going to get a subscription regardless of the issues (The major MMO/Final Fantasy fans, and the fanboys here who seem to do nothing but argue with anyone who has a complaint about a product they paid for)

But a lot of people out there, who maybe aren't used to MMOs (Like me, this is my first) will be using these 30 days, well 37 now, to see if they will be willing to put down £8/9 or however many dollars/euros a month it costs.
And with all these 2002 and 1017 errors, and numerous failures to update the server lists, there are going to be a lot of people who may not bother with the game if the problems persist, especially after the fix that they are planning for Wednesday.

Lets not forget that 14 failed once before due to a number of issues that put people off. And its rare to see an MMO get such a big second chance like this.

I hope they fix the current problems, I really do. I want to enjoy this game, but I don't want to be paying a monthly fee if I'm going to struggle to get a good connection.
