Brief post about maintenance, a good sign?

So there was a post up in the news section about 5 minutes ago saying they will be taking all servers down at 9PM PST for 1 1/2 hours to fix the server issues, but it was taken down within a minute or two.

I instantly though oh good, they got a fix, then when it was taken down got me a bit worried, but maybe they just worded it wrong or had false information, just wanted to share with everyone "patiently" waiting.

well considering they "fixed" the problem 3 times yesterday, i don't have much confidence that yeat another 1.5 hour maintnace will get it this time either

Hopefully we'll see something official soon, thanks for heads up

The problems yesterday weren't with the servers, well not these servers, they were with the login servers....the good news is that seemed to be fixed, but they broke something else haha.

anyway, the post was reposted just now and worded totally different (even the subject)

There is a news article up in the Client saying there will me maintenance from 9:00pm - 10:30pm PDT. Oh sorry it doesnt say "Maintenance" it is now known as "Recovery Operation"

which twitter? The one I looked at wasn't updating anything tonight...

It's improved each maint so I hold hope it'll be even better this time.
Release day is gonna be fun though, hope they're buying more servers, they'll need them.

I was in game(finally after not being able to play all damn day) for an hour, when the message popped up in game saying they were taking the servers down. was so sad considering I finally got into the servers. Hopefully, they done something right so we all wont have to put up with this stupid limitation BS.

well 11:30pm still nope up so nope not fixed

I'd rather maintenance go long than them bring it up "on time" unsure if it's fixed.

Sucks though, I was hoping to get in an hour or two tonight, but it's looking like even if it comes up now i might be able to play for a half hour or hour max...oh well, I'm not mad.
