Time and time again there are planned server maintenance's during peak hours in the NA/EU server cluster.

Why would SE choose to do this over and over? Every other MMO has always done these types of things in the wee hours of the morning. It is extremely frustrating that this continues to be an issue. Emergencies- understandable...but multiple planned downtime during peak time is unacceptable.

Is this due to arrogance? Monetary constraints? I am failing to understand how this can keep happening. Run the numbers...bring down the servers in off hours.

Thanks for reading.
