Whats funny is 2002, 9000, 1017, black page on launcher, "system" error when launching the launcher, and numerous other error codes since Phase 4 beta are ALL connection issues, almost always being caused by too many people accessing too few servers... I almost feel like collecting all the server connection issues into one thread so people can stop acting like a "new" issue has come up.. until they upgrade the servers these issues will not be fixed. period. optimizing the servers will only go so far (that's mostly software based and can only do so much when you haven't got the hardware in place). Until then just hope you can get in, or wait till there's more hardware in place (and it takes a lot of time to prepare and deploy network hardware including servers its not an easy task to just plug in a new one and add it to the list)
