If the servers were shut down for a week....

You can always volunteer yourself and not play during a week!

And it would help with queue times!

Double bonus if he is a DPS. I will craft an honor badge just for him myself!

....would that be enough time to alleviate the current server issues? Because if so, I'd have absolutely no problem with that.

Is this serious or a troll ?

It would be a annoyance but other then that I don't think I would be bothered by it too much, I personally don't feel like any of my time has been wasted or lost sub time. My life in general keeps me from playing the game as much as I want not SE.

Pretty much this.

But I know that I am not the same as everyone. There are plenty of people who would rage about it, and that is putting it mildly.

There would be a lot of complaining and whining anger Etc.

The people who rushed to 70 and to finish MSQ have already left all the areas desolate. Big boss FATEs can no longer be done on smaller servers(probably on big servers too). If a group of people didn't play for a week then the elitists would step in and tell them how much of scrubs they were just cause they didn't rush content like them.

Honestly I would love to see the heads of the AFKers explode if this were to happen.

Shutting the servers down for a week, especially before Omega and Savage release, is a great way to utterly destroy hype for your expansion.

I honestly think they've done a pretty great job of that already.

Well technically I volunteered about three months prior to Stormblood launch. Actually wasn't that bad of a break, which is why I know that one week wouldn't be so bad except for the most hardened of addicts.

Oddly enough, not trolling. At least not this time, especially after thinking about what PR damage has been done and how far should the company go to more adequately put those fires out.
