    Additional consideration: player load has literally never been this high. Could as easily be a case of "we never knew this was a problem because it's never come up before."

    I'd feel more confident in this assumption if they were to address it with intent to fix, tho.

    We get the exact same 5006 and 2002 errors every expansion. They've closed the client instead of reconnecting every time. The queue itself has never been this bad before, but the errors and the bad software design have always been there.

    They only feel like they have to respond to it because the interest is so high that they're getting killed in the media about it this time.

    Perhaps a more accurate correction of my assumption would be along the lines of "the problem has never persisted long enough to warrant investigation/fixing."

    But yes, either way it's all the same. Kinda surprised they're not giving more updates on the situation, just to at least sound like they're doing something or making progress somewhere. Even if it's just "far as we can tell, everything's running as intended."

    Actually, that is a more fair angle. Many people pointed out when we had problems the previous times that they probably don't want to spend time figuring out how to fix them because they'd all be gone in a week or two. It's just annoying that if they had paid them attention when they were brought up in the past we wouldn't be having nearly the same level of frustration now that it's also really busy.
