The extra week is just something they have to give players because we aren't able to fully enjoy the game at all right now, it isn't some sort of "we're sorry" gift.

To be honest, they should've worked on something to kick afk players a while ago and many of the issues we're having right now might be fixed, or at least better. We're not having much update on the SE end so far, they post twitter updates saying the issues are fixed, and yet it's been 2 days since I've been able to actually log on my server.

TLDR, it isn't a "we're sorry" gift, it's something they HAVE to give back to players because we can't play.
You're only half-right here... It is an apology gift, to be certain. They don't *have* to give us extra free time. And on top of that, there isn't a whole lot they could have done to anticipate this, besides having more servers prepared ahead of time. The whole "Kicking AFK people" trick wouldn't work - you would still be competing with thousands of players at once trying to get in. And when were you charged for your first month of play time? Oh, that's right - you haven't been yet. Until they start experiencing these issues after we've all started paying for the monthly service, there's not a whole lot of room for bitching.

It absolutely sucks to not be able to enjoy this game asap, but shit happens. I'm still unable to connect to Behemoth myself, and it sucks. I'm going to have to figure something else out to do with my time. But I've also not got my panties in a bunch because I know that in two days time the slack will have completely worn and we'll all be able to play to our heart's content. It's not that peoples' arguments aren't justified - but come on. It takes time to purchase, procure, set up, and test physical servers. They don't grow on trees, pre-installed. Give them a break.
