1017 rears its ugly head again

It's right after maintenance, and they said time and time again, they'll slowly bring people back to not stress the servers much.

Most likely it's because only 500 people can be queued at once, and since the servers aren't up everyone's bombarding that 500-person queue. Once the servers come up 1017 should disappear quickly....(Note: I just got a queue on Balmung, 79 people....let's hope it doesn't go to error 90000....)

EDIT: In game now

Yup I'm getting it on Leviathan for the first time since two weeks ago but I agree it must be because it's right after maintenance .

ITT: people who don't understand that an error code is not a bug to be fixed, but a symptom of an occurring issue (hint: that issue is login throttling, and working as intended)

So, after the expected deduction in players once the charges came in, SE have reduced the number of active signons.... but too low. GG SE. Still, they got our moneys for signing on for 30 or more days. Mug {you can have this}.

So its 30 minutes since maintenance ended. That means I have to wait whenever the hell they deem it appropriate for me to log in? So I guess the maintenance is unofficially an hour or more longer than they said.

If maintenance didn't happen during PRIME TIME then there wouldn't be a million people shoving themselves into the login server at once.

Sigh, really?

So.....Is it intentional for me not to be able to leave my Inn room?

[Zyeriis]

Got into a queue! Hurray! ...wait, 1017'd again anyway. The fuck...
