Kind of earned by people deciding to circumvent the more standard practice of logging people who have been idle for a half hour by using a system exploit to prevent it from happening.

You can thank everyone who decided that rather than freeing up a spot on their server when they are going to be gone forever they would just never log out. I get that queue times have been crazy on some servers but that is still really selfish since it means you are actively keeping someone else from getting on.

So to the hundred inevitable threads that will whine about this over the next few days and then demand compensation for months afterwards

^~^ good job! You broke it for everyone!
