First off please do not turn this into a bitch-fest, I am hoping to get some actual information.

What exactly is the 1017? Is it an issue where the FFXIV server is full or does it have something to do with the log-on server?

Currently I feel that it more has to do with too many people trying to log on at once in the same server, which would mean it is a log-on issue not a server issue. I also feel this because occasionally I will get in a que for my server (Excalibur) then get kicked out with a 1017 error.

I do not know how all of the tech works so any clarification as to what exactly the error means would be greatly appreciated.

Also, I apologize for any grammar or spelling mistakes.
