On behalf of myself and my fellow NA players who aren't going to die during maintenance: please don't judge all of us by those that are most vocal.

I'd be playing if the servers were up, but they're down, so I'm not. Simple as that. The maintenance from last week resolved a lot of major issues, and allowed players to actually play the game. I look forward to great strides this week as well. I have seen a fair number of MMO launches through, and my opinion is that this one is going nicely.

I won't elaborate much because that will invite dozens of "experts" (read: trolls) to pick apart any statement I'd make for their self satisfaction.

To those that are incessantly whining about the timing of maintenance: Take a shower, shave, go see that big yellow ball of light up in the sky, and maybe even discover that other people exist outside your interwebz. I'm sure FFXIV will be ready and waiting to greet you with open arms (and login servers) tomorrow.
