Unless the person who wrote that maintenance message doesn't know the difference between AM and PM, that message was posted at 4:53 in the morning EDT, which was 14 hours ago. Some people have said they are getting a server list now, but I still get that the server list can't be updated.

Underestimating sales is one thing, but refusing to implement a real queue and refusing to kick players who are AFK for hours at a time is another. The only reason not to implement such widely used practices is because they don't know how to do it. They made some money on this game, apparently, through initial sales, but it's looking more and more like FFXIV is going down in flames for a second time. They keep boasting that a second launch has never been done, will they brag so much when they crash and burn a second time?
