Legacy players expected to wait... again.

A lot of it really does depend on if you are NA or not...

I generally log in at 6pm(ish) UK time (7pm GMT/UTC) I rarely have any queue longer than 2 or 3 mins. I almost never see 1017 anymore.
My wife logs in later at 8pm (9pm GMT/UTC) and generally has to spam the 'A' button for about 5-10 mins she gets past 1017, not a huge issue.

I have two PST friends who have given up hope of being able to log in at all and are likely not to subscribe unless it gets resolved in the next couple of days. They are both 5+ year veterans of XI.

i do agree with this. it does really depend on the time zone you are playing. before i go to work i can sign in without any queue ever, but in the evenings it's a disaster. i would do like others and sign in before work and play when i get in, but i don't feel that's fair to others so i won't do it. in the evenings i usually spend at least 30 min trying to get in spamming the enter screen.
