people act all pissy going "square should just have bought more/better servers 5+ years ago, that they haven't done so shows they are cheapskates". sorry but i want to see you guys run a business where you spend tons of money, like "holy fuck this shit is getting really expensive with time" amounts of money to keep stuff ready for the total fringe case where your biggest competitor basically kills itself 5 years down the line meaning you suddenly have to serve 50% more customers than you could ever have reasonably expected..
The problem here is that you are obviously not able to see what others are seeing, you have your acceptable queue lengths- fine. Others don't, I queued for 4.5 hours yesterday before I got in at 30 past midnight my time- it's the only time I've been able to get in since this friday. I used to have queues before the launch to but it was more like 5-10 minutes which was ok.

I rather see they prioritise players with lower playtime during this period, e.g if you played for four hours and logged off, reenter the queue you would be prioritised over those with six hours playtime etc.
