devs an apology to protector server and others is needed
Maybe not, but the OP did. The title of the thread is "an apology is needed", and the post goes on to to ask for an extension of the event to compensate.
Other than that, based on your past post, it appears you and I agree. I never said you weren't entitled to your opinion or had no right to be a little upset. I have a right to my own opinion as well, and I'm trying to be a bit more realistic about it. There are other options than playing a high level character that can make money/prestige easily any time. Make the best of things and take the opportunity to do something that you don't normally do. I don't see why anybody is surprised when the servers don't act the way they normally do during events such as this. I know this isn't your first Double-XP weekend.

Let's see...

Players asking for an apology from the Devs for things they have little control of: Check
Yup. All is right in the world of City of.
This Double XP weekend has actually been fairly smooth compared to some. Virtue and Freedom were yellow (usually red or locked with a lowered limit) just about all weekend so far.
BTW my primary servers are Champion and Protector, so I got a double whammy, but I just rolled with it and did some stuff with my 50 on Triumph while I waited. Many of my fellow Championites rolled characters on other servers and life went on.
Putting all your eggs in one basket is good until your basket has problems. Wise men say to spread the wealth around some, just in case.
Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
