    That's typical congestion that occurs with just about any content when it's first released and everyone is trying to do it at the same time. Being patient a little while generally solves it.

    You'd have to have a player base that's shown to be patient for that to work. Which totally isn't this one. Not with how often since EW's launch that problem has been popping up. Or you know the many who blitz through everything in the first few hours after a patch has gone live only to complain that there's nothing to do and wanting a miracle to happen in the devs to deliver them more new shinies next week thar they'll again blaze through only to restart the cycle.

    Lemme tell you about my EW launch experience. I'd get home from my job about 6-6:15 PM, enter the queue to login, wouldn't get logged in till 7:30-8:30 depending, some nights not all. Once in, I couldnt even go into the FC house, I couldnt visit my room, I had NO private area to craft while I waited for my friend to login so we could continue the MSQ since we were still in StB/ShB.

    You know why? I've heard from multiple people within the FC that they (and I'm sure many others) had ways of avoiding the AFK timers and were holed up in their private apartments. I have no idea what that method was but it did happen. they'd be at work for hours on end and when they get home they never had to deal with the 2-3 hour queue just to log in. When 7.0 hits its going to be even worse I'm sure what with the updates to the game engine and everyone wanting to know what kind of story is in for us. They simply DONT have the servers to deal with everyone having their own private house since wards are their own instance shared by multiple people.

    They were using something to automatically press a key.

    I heard of players during the crunch who would use a turbo controller to just jump in place. Go to an inn room and jump. Jump. Jump.
