Well regarding the new info from yoshi.

Not perfect but at the corent situation as best as we can have. They won't let new players join for now. Hope they start doing server resets more often,even each day, as this looks to help. Not onlly it kicks afkers but clean the logs of the log in servers. To bad they don't delay the savage but it be ok I hope.
Best thing is how yoshi (more like the team for looking at the forums and such) clearly know of all the topics going on now. So this is to all the white knights that say "stop posting here,no one see it".
What you think of it? Happy?not?

This is a good bad situation to be in. After living through the ARR launch I can say I have confidence they'll see this through, even if it takes a while.

Enough with the name calling please. There has been enough of that these past few weeks.

[Nekaru_Infitima]

As much as it's great they're addressing it. Suspending sells, advertisement, and new accounts is VERY bad for the holidays. When people would be buying the game for others.

I really hope this doesn't hurt them.

i've seen a lot of stuff, but no one telling people to stop posting stuff because "no one sees it", at least not from the crowd you could call "white knights". most people ask for things like a bit less "fuck you square, go die in a fire, you can all suck my d***" or for the same 5 people to stop making 10 threads a day, both of which should be fair to expect in the civilized world. theres a big difference between wanting people to not voice dissatisfaction at all and simply wanting them to stop screaming like a toddler.

Oh excuse me. Stereotyping people for the sake of agitating.

You say it so much you don't even realize you're saying it:

the white knights that say

Mostly I've seen people tell others we don't need ANOTHER thread. There are plenty, and past actual interactions with community managers have told us the longer and more interactive (likes) a thread is the more likely it gets passed up to people who can do something about it. So maybe we consolidate our grievances instead of thread #23598 of "omg I can't get in cause I have a job".

Well, those that can afford it can always buy stuff from the mog station, since that goes right back into funding the game itself.

I'm guessing this wasn't a decision they made lightly. The short term losses will, at least in my opinion, pale in comparison to the long term gains should they follow through on their plans in a timely fashion. But clearly time is of the essence if they are pulling server equipment from wherever they are getting it so quickly, though a few months wouldn't normally be considered quick by any means. Like I've said in another thread, they kinda had to do something.
