again. please read this thread before commencing said butthurt.

tl;dr: there isn't enough server capacity for all of us yet. they did not anticipate such a large user-base because OB trials were incunclusive, and this is like one of the first MMOs to re-launch a 2nd time. it isn't just as cut-and-dry as "increase the queue or I'll go tell my daddy."

principles aside, if you have played at all so far, you have been given exactly what Squenix promised you. that's it. any sensible organization or lawyer will laugh in your face if you tried to bring this to any type of legal hearing.
those are just excuses for poor planning,

your point of view about lawyers laughing in my face has nothing to do with me, I don't plan on suing just don't agree with your view point! My point is SE knew about these issues during beta 4 and could have started the process then instead of 1 day after early access. They had the numbers of preorder and knew to some degree what there player base would be at the start. They may have been inconclusive but if you work in the IT world like I do, you always build your infrastructure based on the worst case scenario then scale back from there after traffic studies have been done! IT infrastructure costs money yes, but that is the cost of providing adequate service! Honestly where I work, if we started a new server farm and had the problems SE is having right now, not only would I be fired but a few others that work for me or above would be too!
