I was in mid-flight on the last pull for the +10 All stats Datacron. Who knows where i'll be when the servers come back online.

As has been mentioned many times before, some in-game warning is needed for events like this. We had 8 people in there, and none of us knew that the servers were coming down.

Perhaps you receive a warning on your server, but given the amount of people posting in this and other threads, you should not be quick to judge other players as inattentive.

More likely and unsurprisingly, BioWare dropped the ball.
Guess its impossible that notice was missed. Nah no one ever misses stuff when they are trying to run a FP or OP.

Strike 1: Lag

Strike 2: No warning before "Restarts" (Which is slowly turning into downtime)

Sith happens. This is EA we're talking about. Deal. lol

We had 30-40 guys online in our guild.
I'm pretty sure at least one would've seen the message since it should've popped about 7 times.

Our Flashpoint group was in the last line of dialogue before fighting the last Foundry boss.

We got no warnings at all up until the server kicked us out.

On the one hand it's comforting to know I won't log in dead. On the other hand it's really, really fricking aggravating to know that the entire flashpoint was a waste of time, and once I do get back in I'll have to re-queue if I want to get my daily comms.

Had I known this was coming I wouldn't have even started. Screw 15 minutes. the moment you know for sure you are taking the servers down you should be telling players in game. Even if it's an hour out.

That part doesn't bug me...the lack of warnings does...
