Sure if it was 75:25 you would have a point, but not when it is so close.

What Bioware could do is 1 week european hours ( euros pissed off) next week usa hours ( americans pissed off) . This way we can all be equially pissed off. Happy New Year!

Damn, I would LOVE to see you work for a service providing company. Oh, 43% of our users are having a problem. Well that means 57% isn't having a problem! That's more than half of our userbase, guess nothings wrong then. I know for a fact, my boss will FIRE MY *** INSTANTLY if I started doing maintenance on core routers that affected "only" 43% of our customers.

Im sorry but if I agreed with you, what would you want Bioware to do? do updates at different hours? you know it wont work, US will flood EU servers while an downtime is on and EU would flood US servers during their downtime. Servers would crash, more people would complain and more whiners will have something to whine about. They use the reasoning I mentioned because its the only way, as it is the lesser of two evils. They are damned if they do and damned if they dont. People should oh I dunno, try the job themselves and see if they can come up with a better idea that works for all and leaves noone upset.

Someone has to lose in THIS industry. NOT yours, dont compare a rabbit and a ballon. They are different.

I'm sorry, but this is utter nonsense. If you do maintenance during the 3AM - 11AM window for Europe, most people are sleeping. Which means we can't "flood" the US servers.. unless all EU SWTOR players are secretly sleep walking.

I give up, whiners be whiners. If you are upset, then do something someone else suggested on a different thread that which i disagreed to. He told people if upset, leave. LEAVE, dont be two faced and stay if you are complaining so much.
