Why would you schedule server maintenance during Prime time hours???

It obviously wasn't an emergency because it was planned and posted on 9/18/2013 at 0842 hours. So why take down all NA servers during literally the busiest play hours??

I understand it's morning time in Japan, but maybe start after lunch??

Japanese company, Japanese data center.

Because they have no respect for the NA customer base.

You know that there are also EU servers, yes?

Yes, it is because it is a Japanese company. This game was, initially, made for the Japanese people. Also, though, since the Japanese servers can be played on by those of us not in Japan, I think it's a type of fairness. If one set of servers can't play, then neither can the others. It's only two hours...at least it's not 8.

I also agree with Remilia. It is not just us 'NA customer base' that is getting it, it is the whole customer base, including Europe.

The funny thing is, it was the NA servers that got overloaded with too many players and crashed, not the Japanese, so which do you think is the larger player base?

No, they were the EU/NA servers. Not the NA servers.

And yes, I'm going to bitch about it until US people realize they are not at the center of the universe :P

Not really. I figure this maintenance has more to to do with character creations, if you've been watching the notices about it, you'll see that the NA and JP data centers have alternated between "mostly x's" and the last notice showed all the JP servers clear.

If they do something about the hackmovers I'll be impressed.

Yea, they are also some of the biggest whiners right now. Pretty sure most of us will get over only two hours of lost play time, though.

Its only 2 hours stop crying
