I don't understand anymore -__-

She/he's not right. This is a technical support forum, not a forum for complaining about not being able to play. You should only come here to have your issues addressed and not whine about things over and over and over again.

I think not being able to play could classify as a technical issue <.< /justsay'n

In order for technical support tickets to be addressed, people need to stop flooding the forums with the same topics over and over again. Nothing can be addressed if there are 27,000 "1017" topics. SE knows what 1017 is, there only needs to be one thread, everyone can write in that one thread. Making new threads doesn't make it more apparent that 1017 is going on, they know it's happening for the thread that has over 200 responses and counting.

This latency/connection issue seems to be a concern for a couple people this morning, so it's something that needs to be addressed regardless of what you people consider to be priority or not.

but it helps them understand the severity of the issue :P if there was just 10 or so they would probably be like screw it its nothing big, but you get 27,000 topics going it sends a message that they need to do something NOW. sure they probably stop paying attention after a few thousand, but they know its a big problem.

There are already two threads running now that reported this issue even though the titles aren't that clear. I get on others for making numerous threads on the same subject so I don't want to fall prey to doing the same thing. I have added my info to those threads and continue to track the progress. I appreciate it though. It seems that not only is it effecting NA servers but Malaysia as well.

Valkus and Statishido, I'd recommend making a new thread with "Server Latency issues after early morning maintenance" title to focus attention at the issue.

you realize this is almost seen as selfish and trivial due to the fact that half the playerbase isnt being allowed to log on.

So, just because he has issues in the game and is stating those issues, you assume he/she is playing the game? From what you posted I assume you are a 12-year old right? Sure they could have logged in a couple of times in the past but you have no idea what is going on with them RIGHT NOW, they could be having the same issues as you. If you're not 12 then.... Well that would be just sad, considering what you just said makes me think you are.

First of all attacking my thread because majority of the players can't get on is my problem? I haven't complained once because the servers have been limited, literally today has been the most I've played so please if you want to go around with your goon squad talking about me being selfish go do it somewhere else, I could careless what you have to say.

I'm here posting this because I want to know whats the reasoning around it, do you see me flaunting my flashy cards gloating that I'm on the server? Jesus christ, bug off.

If this is happening at random times, have you tried cycling your modem and router? I'd say give that a shot doing the ol' 30 seconds unplugged cold boot. If that doesn't work, try checking to make sure that all necessary ports are open on your router. If all of that is done and there is no change, then it is probably a server load issue on their end (SE), especially if other sites seem and streams seem to be loading with no buffering and what not.

Ahem...how would I know which ports are necessary to be open? Sorry I literally suck with these kinds of things after all these years of using the internet ~_~

I got these from here, if you need instructions for your brand of router, scroll down and click on Final Fantasy XIV game title and it will take you to a link of routers with instructions on how to input.

I have a MyNet router, I couldn't find it in the list in the port forward website. Anyway you would be kind enough to walk me through this?
