The difference between a valid complaint and being a Karen

[Thaurnus]

So, does complaining about Karens make you a complaining Karen?

Snip

I guess we found the type of person OP was talking about.

I think OP like most of us are tired of seeing all these uneducated threads and tantum threads. I know I am.

But better start calling people like me who getting sick of seeing same dull argument for 3 days for sheeps and white knight (just cringing over typing that)

complaining is a double edged sword, sometimes it comes back on you.

aka we will see this exact thing in 6 months or less when we get lottery added to housing.

Let's hope those servers are already bought then and we're just waiting for em to ship the things.i mean, surely they're trying their best and don't shy away from the cost, right?!

The company loves us, not just our money isn't that right?!

Disclaimer, I really like to talk smack and am not actually serious!

Or am I?!

Already stated that they couldn't buy the hardware, because there is none to buy. This was mentioned before early access and they apologized. Even stated that they were willing to pay more for it, but they still couldn't get any.

There is absolutely no way short of a crystal ball that they could have predicted half of WoW jumping ship over here in time to prepare for it.

no need for "crystal ball" they clearly knew the number of sales for Endawalker for both EU and NA but yet continued and still continue to sell it, they knew the regions the accounts were for they even knew the servers the accounts were most active on, they have ALL the figures or did someone accidently forget to look at server capacity numbers, there is no white knighting this they are selling a service they can not provide.

I mean srly Japan has 32 servers while the entire EU has 12! they increased the number of servers for Japanese region before launch but NOT EU or NA regions which have far far more players

the last time they increased the EU servers people were asking, BEGGING for server merges because the wait times for dailies and dungeons was "too long"

times change, maybe if there had not been such push back back then, the EU might actually have more servers.

Did they ask Blizzard or Amazon's New World? Bet there's a few empty servers over there they could borrow.

the only reason i see is their infra don't support an external public cloud, but it's kinda the future to support that, to allow scalability on new launches

just look at new world, how they managed to open 2x more servers in few hours.

Maybe just stay off the forums until all this dies down? It's emotionally charged rn and people are here mostly to vent or to argue with those who are venting.

I don't find it particularly helpful for the other side to try to gatekeep and determine what is and is not valid criticism.

Very convienent that you ignored the bulk of what I said and zeroed in on one sentence when I already addressed this.

They have publically stated that they can't install hardware in other continents right now because of Covid issues as well.

PredatoryCatgirl stop using covid as an excuse for their incompetence. they where in the office for a better part of an year. they are just being lazy.they haven't even implemented like they did previous expansions the thing where they kicked all players offline at a certain time. they have done nothing to pervent this from being as bad as it is.and on the point of wow jumping ship thing u clearly didn't see in the lodestone or any articles where yoshi p says he was suprised about the increase of players WAY before the expansion release. i don't think yoshi p would be that stupid and not try to get servers or implement something to make the expected increase of traffic be not as bad as it has been. all i have seen from yoshi p is hollow apologies. as i have been getting to the front of the queue all errors you can possilby imagine and not even being put back to where i was is not acceptable. i paid like many others for "EARLY ACCESS" and for me as a customer and long term player (ever since the beta) to not even be put in the position of the queue i was in is completly unexcetable. i don't mind waiting 5 hours fine,but for me to not even be put into where i was in the queue is a complete an utter joke and the WORST part it's going to get a lot lot worse when it's "fully realeased".
