So slide 25 and growth implies that managing community greatly controls some work/cost. Which is pretty interesting and inline with some early stuff from Vanilla when they discussed how much subs just covered bandwidth.My apologies.

Read that.

This is more simpler and on point.
Not directly elated to you, But how does SE inability to provide a sufficient amount of staff a valid argument and be brought up in defense. When my ISP fails to provide what I deem sufficient support I report them to the CRTC and they get warned and fined and generally got better. Because enough people complained.
Semi related (tin foil hat time) this game has some weird design issues. They can't fix somethings, odd things make no sense, somehow out of all the trained professionals in the world they can't get enough staff. Is it because of Play Station support or developers making poor decisions in the past for whatever reason.



Obligatory compensation for maintenance post
Was wondering how long it would take![]()



Routine server maintenance for patches/hotfixes/etc are covered in the Terms of Service agreement that you already agreed to before you started the game. No one is going to be "compensated" for what is a necessary part of updating the game.
Just your friendly neighborhood elezen



They probably played a Blizzard game. From Vanilla to Lich King account was given extra time for multiple down time. Never for schedule though if I am remembering right, was always for multiple bug fix patches.
So I have played a few NCsoft, Blizzard and Turbine games I don't remember any of them having multiple full day patches over the course of less then 4 years.


Of the sub games out there... heh...
None of them have for expected maintenance.
Now... things outside of the control SE (ie cascade errors that crash servers left and right and it takes a day to fix) would likely be compensated.
But to answer as has been answered, no. It wouldn't happen. And I'm sure this game does the 24 hour maintenance window on major patch days regularly.



Why do people make these? I was just checking to see if there were any Patch is up posts.


Do people ever stop complaining, what's next people are going to ask to become instantly max level and skip the storyline.
Oh wait....
I don't see a reason for us to be compensated.
An update is a gift. They're not obligated to give us any.
You can argue that subs will go waaaay down if they ever stopped updating the game.
Then I will say: "Shaddap and wait."
Real talk:
Compensation is given when an unintentional event puts you in a terrible circumstance out of your control.
Compensation is not given to put you the complainer in a state better before you were affected.
Tell me, what exactly did you lose to cause you distress from the servers being down for 1 day?
Hint Hint: You won't win this battle in the courts because you know why? If you ever read the Newsletter and the popups whenever we log into the launcher. They always give us a 3 day advance notice so we can figure out what we can do with our lives. [Like Go outside and breathe the air]
