Petition to restore the queue system.

[XenabelleS]

Dear SE

We can understand that you want to limit logins to ensure server stability. OK. Jealous of the lucky few that get to play while the rest of us are locked out, it sucks but is understandable.

But please restore/build a transparent queue system soon. Most of the frustration is because of error 1017 kicking people out to the main screen with a "try again later". This is really really bad. People are afraid to log off because they have no idea when or if they'll get back on. The problems keep compounding because there is no queue.

So please sign this thread if you agree that SE should reimplement a queue system. Maybe if we show them that this is a very desired feature, they'll do it.

I'll sign because Queue's are way more efficient, and much easier to handle for us. This way we know we are waiting, and we can do other things in the process. This whole spam start/name/ok (at error), over and over, for 30+ minutes, is ridiculous.

My 2 cents

Pretty much the same reason why I'm okay with the queue system as well. Any time that I have been queued, it has not been more than a 1-2 minute wait.

I agree with OP, would prefer a lot being 400th in queue over getting 1017 error, at least in queue I know I'll get to play at some point. Log in spamming sucks.

Or 4,000th. Agreed, and it probably isn't helping the severs. Its not the waiting, its the not getting in the que (12 hrs of that yesterday then got to play, now started again)

Signed. Being put in a queue, no matter how long it is, is better then having to attempt to login over and over.

[TreyZerODM]

Signed and ready

[VashTS]

signed, and I have been trying again for the past hour with no luck

[Validas]

Also signed!
I spent over an hour yesterday spamming through the login screens to a 1017 error while my wife sat across the room playing after trying only 3 times. Having any kind of queue system would have let me go do anything else but listen to her mock me the entire time.

Players to login once, and never log out for fear of being unable to even get in a queue.
This causes even higher server load, since you never kick them. Most of my guild logged in this morning before going to work and will stay on the server, preventing anyone else from playing all day. We're not the only ones.
Wastes players time as they have no choice but to hammer the login button for hours on end if they want any hope of being lucky enough to get in.

Implement a login queue. How could you possibly not have this implemented. Even with many MANY problems and deficiencies, this is by far the biggest kick in the nuts to your customers.
EVERYONE would rather see they are 50,000 in queue than to have to bash their head against their keyboard every 10 seconds to try to get in, only to have someone else get lucky and take their place.
