Playing after 11 Nov Poll is up

I said yes, primarily to talk to friends while the game is offline if they would choose to play, and it wouldn't affect ARR because there will be no patches, just the servers running.

Isn't that sort of thing better-done on facebook or mIRC or even things like skype/teamspeak/mumble?

I voted no, as unrecorded progression is no progression at all.

Its a lot easier to talk ingame than to get instant messaging ids from all LS members/friends. While my LS does use mumble there can still be issues, we for example don't want none members spamming mumble etc etc.

Keeping the game online will not influence the development of ARR, there is absolutely no downside to keeping the servers running, all they need is one of Yoshi-P's coffee makers to occasionally shut them down and restart them. They will not need any large scale maintenance.

Anyone that thinks it will affect ARR know nothing of how servers work, think of your PC, if you change nothing unless some hardware blows up you don't need to maintain the PC it will run the same all the time.
