    I don't know about you but I played a lot of MMOs that had a working queue in conjunction with a population limit for the servers as well as actual player limit.
    If the population cap is reached character creation is suspended.
    If the realm is full then you can still log in with an existing character and stay at your current queue location until spots get free on the realm and the queue starts to move again.
    The reason for queues is to give people a forecast when they are able to log onto a congested realm. The current state is simply a full server without any queue at all. You get on by luck and that’s that.

    A lot of MMOs also kick AFK players and allow disconnected players to jump the queue all together upon fast relog.
    Something FFXIV:ARR isn’t doing as well.

    The current situation is lame and should be dealt with and not by petty excuses.

    Edit: I'm not complaining that I can't play due to full servers. I'm complaining that I can't get into a queue to orderly get onto a full server and play.
