Excessive maintenance is starting to piss off the casual, non-raiding players.

Most of the maintenance is in the middle of the night US time (don't know your timezone). It won't affect the majority of the playerbase.

For example, one of my friends missed out on getting his island bike mount because he couldn't retrieve granary materials or animal droppings in time to start the new cycle this week due to last week's maintenance.

Boo frickety hoo. So they have to wait another day to get what they want. . . talk about first world problems.

most casual players are not that reasonable
when maintenance hits them at 7PM all the way to 3AM they get really pissed off

Kinda rude to call your friends unreasonable

Since when do you speak for all casual players, i can think of many casuals who don't care because they play the game casually and usually have other things to do. Just speak for yourself instead of hiding behind some banner of solidarity that doesn't exist

These days, one can make good money being a professional offended spokesperson.
Others just do it for lulz.
Either way, it's sad.

Did you take a poll of the playerbase or something? How do you know most aren’t reasonable about it instead of, say, just shrugging and going “ Well guess I’ll do something else then”? Your friends are not a sample size of anything.

I laughed so hard at this.

Sure, there's way less players online, but how out of touch can you actually be? Middle of the night is a prime time for people in north american timezones that work and go to school.

Also can you be any ruder? You could easily sit there and rattle off all your problems and I can easily sit there and tell you how they're all first world and how someone else has it worse. That doesn't make it any better, now does it?


Anyways, the maintenance right now isn't that bad yet but it is worrying. You don't want to see it go any further than this.

Why would you have any concern. The maintenance schedule has gotten less over the years, not more.

We only get maintenance when we need it, and only for the time they require. Hence why we have frequent early ends for maintenance, but very, very, very few extensions. I can't remember the last time they had to extend one actually.
