I live in America on the East Coast and its not a big deal at all for me. They can do maintenance at any time they want for all I care.

"4. Commence World transfer service.
In addition to our above plans to improve server stability, we will begin service for World transfers."

We know they are coming, but when? My friends keep waffling about if they should just start new on my server or keep playing their legacy toons they already have because we don't know when transfers will happen. If the transfers are coming soon (say within a week or two) they want to keep what they've already accomplished because they already have their Job, but if it's more like a month or two then they might as well start over on my server now so we can enjoy playing together. So knowing a better target date will help them make up their minds about what to do. Right now they're dragging their feet in hopes the transfers are soon but keep talking about dropping the game because their not having fun on their individual servers.

Please give us a target date, not just a carrot.

Thank you for doing your best, glad to see they are telling us stuff. Keep it up.

Because they live in Japan and its probably better for them to do maintenance (especially when its extended this long) during the day when the are in the office?

I'm sorry, but I do not support asking a JAPANESE company to shift their hours just because we are North Americans/Europeans. At all. And im a US player.

Please don't nerf AK speed runs in this patch!

I don't think it's unreasonable to ask that they rotate times periodically. As is, whether they're a Japanese company, a US company, or an Egyptian company, they have more players in the US than anywhere else; it makes business sense to not piss off one's largest customer base (at least, based on numbers given prior and the login debacle).

Most businesses specifically look for the lowest traffic times to do maintenance. That is not what SE is doing. It's not a major issue, and certainly not something I'm worried about (I'll just read a book like last time or have fun watching the forums implode), but it would be a well-appreciated courtesy.

What's reasonable is for people to grow up and stop acting like mommy took their lolly away for what is, essential downtime.

I love to play myself, but the people who make the game need lifes too. They all live in JP i imagine, so asking them to do this would mean having them breaking up their day. i may not be ecstatic about it, I understand
