    Source: I know many of these sys admins and cage masters.

    so what you're basically asking for is two different clients (like all the games do that have different maintenances)... which in turn usually also means TWO SUBSCRIPTIONS. the maintenance is not so much a server maintenance as it is also a maintenance to work on the entire game client, including uploading a patch. you really want a patch to be implemented during different times? or if that is not what you want, since it's technically possible, you want them to have the patch implemented for everyone at the same time, but have the server maintenance at different times? do you realise this would mean extra work for them? that's hardly cost-efficient and guess what? it would STILL make people upset.

    that being said it's still the same data centre for both North America and Europe, and the maintenance is - for once - NOT during European peak time. in fact it's 3:30 in the night in Central Europe right now, where the majority of the European playerbase lives, and 2:30 in the UK and Portugal. so... you were saying?

    *more misguided assumptions*

    What ? Where in my post do you get all these ? I said I DO NOT AGREE with OP. I couldn't care less what time they do their maintenance. I just corrected that person for their ignorant argument of "They dont want to work through the night." In fact most of they sys admins and cage masters do work through the night for maintenance.

    All the assumptions you are making about my post make you look a bit ridiculous to be quite honest.
