Threads like these can get tedious, but in a way it is a good sign. It means that there are still people who care about the game that they will complain about being denied the fun.

The day that no one complains about maintenance is the day almost no one cares anymore.

So ironically, threads like these are an indicator that the game is very much alive.

I'm not sure if I agree with your generalization but ok.

I'm Australian genius, I simply play with a few Singaporeans.. Probably because they're also part of the APAC region.

I wouldn't say it is ironic at all. It is a good game. And you're right, we wouldn't complain if it wasn't. We'd just quit and be done with it. Nothing wrong with being the squeaky wheel and hoping for some grease, though. We want to play!

Yeah that would be nice.

To be honest though give the games history I would schedule maitanace on a wednesday to fix whaever tuesdays broke and on a thursday to fix whatever wednesdays broke.

It would be simpler all around.
Real Star Wars space combat please, not Star Wars Fox! Maybe some PvP and flight too?

SWTOR does go down a LOT for fix to the patch that was supposed to fix stuff stuff.

Again I wish they just ran a proper test server rather than pushing anything that doesn't crash the server Live and then fix it later, it's a horrible policy.

I love it when people whine about maintenance...

Is SW:TOR really that large a part of your life that 2 hours of downtime on a thursday is completely ruining your life?

Take a breath. Watch a good movie, or two or three episodes of your favourite tv-show. Read a book. Maby do the dishes, or whatever else it is that takes up your time when youre not playing SW:TOR and that will give you more time to play when the servers are back up again.

Its really not that much of a bother.

And if it is, to you, then you really need some help.

Again though SWTOR is likely averaging close to 1 unplanned maintance a week, that's much higher than any other MMORPG I've ever played, and I've played a few.

In the beginning, just after release, it was understandable, but it's becoming clear that it's just not going away, it's some sort of systemic management flaw in their bug control system.

Its nice that they do all the bug fixing.

It REALLY sucks that they always do it AFTER they release content.

Wow, you made my text tiny.
That somehow made me feel inferior,
so now i had to do this.
See what you made me do?
