Post up here when you guys feel would be a *good* time for maintenance.

I personally am a later player, my peak hours are between 10pm and 3-4am

I would like server maintenance to be pushed back a couple of hours at the very least.
2am cst is way to early and i think everyone would agree. Think about the west coast people, midnight? MIDNIGHT? id shoot myself. im going to GUESS that theyre making 30-40% of their player base in the PST cut their night of swtor short. This has to stop. Push this crummy maintenance back two hours!

Dude, i am playing at nights because this game is being updated 9 AM CET - 5 PM CET.
You want it even later? You mean postpone me until 7 PM CET? This is not fair at all.

I'm sure Bioware knows when they have the lowest number of people online, and by my uneducated guesswork it would be right around the time they do them.

I certainly don't want them earlier. I already get kicked off the servers when maintenance starts. If they went later, they'd push into after-work hours in Europe. I think they picked the best possible time.

But, again, Bioware has the numbers, and they should base maintenance times on that, not on the opinions of a bunch of clueless people on the forums.

2am-3am CST is the lowest number online for pretty much every NA mmo.

Surely you (and your physical health) would benefit from one night of good, solid, healthy sleep. Use it. It's one day of the week. If you can't handle one day of the week having to do something else, then you really need to reevaluate your life choices.

They cannot make it any later untill they split maintenance by region, as it is, it's already during daytime on European servers, making it any later would put it primetime.

And they can't split maintenance by region unless the clients are locked to those regions, which they're not. Unless that changes, they won't even be able to split maintenance.

No matter what time you do it some one will be unconvinced.
When it is a six hour schedule unless they finish early I loose a hour off my normal 2 hour game play after my midnight shift before I go to bed.
