NA/EU Servers Down?

[bigsw43]

They are not interested in kicking AFKers. They are only interested in adding more servers because that won't fix the problem...

Quote from http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/73680:
"From several users on some of our more congested Worlds, we have received requests for a feature which automatically logs out characters who are AFK for an extended period of time. We are actively looking into the implementation of such a feature, but have decided to first concentrate our efforts on increasing the number of Worlds and optimizing the Duty Finder servers."

I think they need to do both, concurrently; boot the AFK menace AND add a few new servers, only because the line to "get in the door" is so damn long.

This is an everyday thing it's starting to really piss me off.

i'm now queue to join a NA/EU server

I was battling this all day yesterday, finally got the list only to fight 1017, then got into the game at 2:30AM. Then I simply needed to sleep, so I logged out at 3:40AM.

As far as SE not kicking AFKers, they're trying to appeal to everyone and ensure everyone can play by increasing the capacity/data of the servers. That said, it's still not that great of a plan all things considered.

Ah 1017 and no na-eu servers, I thought you would be resolved for today - but I was mistaken.

I've been trying to log in for over 2 hours now... Have seen all possible errors passing by, got in a queue twice to be disconnected from the server twice as well...I even got the 'world full' error before even making a character selection...

I am just getting a grayed out start button, then error 2002.. I guess a lot of people are getting this?

[Ferrin]

I've got an even better one..

Error 1017 before I even pick a character.

It just flat out tells me "Worlds are full gtfo" after I click the start button xD
