Here's the thing that pisses me off the most. Without a que syste, I could be sitting here trying to log on for 20 minutes, and someone else could boot up, and get in on his first try just by luck.

How in any way is that fair for anyone?

Edit: The downside for SE is, as someone who works in the games market, I can't in good conscience recommend this game to anyone who comes looking for it. And I end up having to tell them that it's impossible to play because SE locked out the servers and doesn't have a que. And that they can't make a character on the world their friend is on because the servers are no longer taking new characters.

He is what I hope doesn't happen.

I hope they don't have an auto afk sign out. I don't know about you but I enjoyed "examine" people for bazaar and such in FF11. Just a thought but sign me up for petition^^

Why is it so hard for people to understand that bigger queues=more logins to process=more load on the lobby server(s)=crashing lobby server(s). Does that spell it out plainly enough? The queues are set to a small number to prevent a crash, and those outside that number get "server too full". Some even get booted out of the queue when it gets turned down due to the load. They are monitoring 24/7, and adjusting up and down as they go. This is to ensure the best stability, while still allowing as many to play as possible.

I was trying to explain this to Aytri, but she apparently cannot comprehend this. I completely agree with this. They tried opening the queue's early saturday and the servers crashed. -.-

No one will reply here from the team, as the only solution is hardwareexpansion.
The problem is the same still, putting everyone in gigantic queues will cause stability issues on either lobby- or logonserver.
Theres no other reason for it.
Theyre not doing this out of malicious intents.

And a comparison with aeion doesnt work, the serverinfrastructure is probably something completely different.
