Getting frustrating at the 2002 and losing queue position

[Captain_Red]

For me the most frustrating is to have to babysit a 2-3 hrs queue, having to relog multiple 2002 errors only to get kicked to the back of the line which is now 2000 more people large (after multiple 2002 error in a row)...
Q for people that have been part of previous expansions, how long did it take for the queues to decrease in length from being in the multiple thousands, let say down to multiple hundreds?

I fear this may last many months at that rate...

is Aether out? tried to log into Pimal and it was all good, tried on Aether and just got 2002

I've played many games over the years and sat in many queues and I can't even remember one game where I got kicked repeatedly from it. And my internet now is better than it ever has been. Hard wired fiber optic.

Well it really sucks to lost your place after being in queue for 2k+. That's 1 hr minimum to log in. When will be this issue resolved? I don't want free days, I want to play and just be able to log in /;

I work all day, when I try to play, I get a queue above 6,000, this every day since the launch of the expansion, I go in and play for just 1 hour, because I have to sleep and work the next day

Just wanted to add that I am pissed off too. It consistently loses connection to the data center and puts me at the back of the queue when I can get back in, day after day. No point in trying to play.


EDIT: I forgot to say, I was able to wait in the queue and eventually log in and play during the pre-order early release period, but when the regular release started, haven't been able to play once.

I think the problem will be escalating even more. People are so afraid to log out now that they are finding ways to stay in-game. Have a look!

I went to make coffee and now I'm back from 1800 or so in queue to 2700 due to 2002. This babysitting is harsh!

Can Square Enix PLEASE add an auto-reconnect and NOT close the game if we have an error? i don't mind the long queue so long as i can STAY in the queue without having to babysit the game client for HOURS.

It's unacceptable as a company to allow that we, the people who pay to keep servers running, are not offered some level of protection within the queue. When I'm at 700 players in line, after already waiting 3 hours from when I logged in, to get a f'ing 2002 error, and am placed back in f'ing line at 6000. Looks like I'm not f'ing playing your game today, which is like MANY OTHER DAYS. Makes me want to un-sub and go back to WoW. At least with their servers, they can keep people logged in to their server while waiting in the queue.
