It seems already dead and I'm not surprised, the pvp always did seem like miles behind wow's.
It has way, way, WAY less downtime compared to most, because they are usually on top of major issues that could crash the game. I'd prefer they take 1 night every couple weeks to fix things or even emergency maintenance if needed if it means stable gameplay compared to the alternative.
