Queue times are unacceptable thread #11111

Snip.

I agree that if you paid to transfer to a highly populated and currently congested server some of your long queue time is self-made.

Even so: that doesn't excuse the current pathetic long queue times on a lot of servers.
It's SE's 2nd FF14 expansion and you have to be a special human breed to be unable to foresee the current disaster as a possible outcome of a new expansion - even more so if you hype it up like they did with SB and the release of RDM and SMR.

And all you get from official side is: "Ups, we're so sorry for this completely foreseeable mess and we apologize - here have a 5000 player queue".
From where I stand those apologies are nothing but a rushed attempt at soothing the masses; and they're a good example of what having integrity and valuing your customers doesn't look like.
