These thursday unexpected server down times for fixes hits me right in my prime time gaming hours for the week. I put up with them cause I like the game for the most part and I figure they are fixing aomething important for some one.

Last nights patch was my turn it fixed the purple gear bug for me. I had just recently leveled and re'd my old gear for mats with all new purple crafted gear ready to be equipped on my character. Well with the bug I couldn't wear any of it. The healer in my regular group had a hard time keeping me alive with half my normal health. if I was playing solo It would have been unplayable.

As long as it would start 8pm NYC time then yes, I am for it too.
Right now I hear we have EU servers in Ireland, so I assume that maintenance crew is possibly also in Ireland, so it is naturally logical to have EU maintenance starting when even the most dedicated US players go sleep and finished when they wake up.

They need to find something new to break.

Tuesdays are patch/maintenance days. Thursdays (sometimes Fridays) are to fix whatever Tuesdays maintenance broke. This is common in SWTOR and most of us expect it by now. No one knows why, we just accept it and move on with our life.

Welcome to SWTOR.

Maybe it offended the Mormons and they killed it in Utah.

I do have a life. I have chosen to give BW my money instead of running a DVR to record the crap networks air while I am at work. So you see.... this repetitive paching to fix their frakups is getting beyond old. I accept once a week, even though this is the first MMO that does it at this hour for me, but these multi patches a week are a direct result to BWs failure as an MMO devolper.
Do you expect to go see movies at the cinema at 5 in the morning? No, they don't open til 9 or 10.

This game isn't supposed to fit your routine one bit. Sure you choose to pay for it, just like you would choose to pay to see a movie on the big screen. However, when you want some movie entertainment, you expect the movie theater to be open. God forbid they decide to do some emergency renovation and close the cinema for a few days with only a day's notice, they might receive an angry letter.

Importance is relative.. and not all squeaky wheels get oiled.

You are at best 1% of the player population. Want more attention... fill your three sagging servers with active players and you might have sufficient relative importance to be heard when demanding more fairness on server maintenance.

Besides...when exactly could they do maintenance that would not impact some players somewhere on the planet?? Somebody is going to be upset no matter what. TL;DR there will always be some wheel squeakage, and it cannot be eliminated.
When you find yourself surrounded by hostile Clowns... always go for the "Juggler" first.
