...oddly enough, I thought that was more of an ST:O problem.

Is it time for the dance of joy yet?

They all laughed at me when I said I wanted to be a comedian.
But I showed them, and nobody's laughing at me now!

Virtue will be taken down for a one-hour long maintenance between 2:30PM Pacific Time (5:30PM Eastern Time) and 3:30PM Pacific Time (6:30PM Eastern Time), today, Thursday, May 6th, 2010.

We apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience.
Hehe we are geting somewhere ... maybe?
Hey, I'm just glad they started saying Pacific Time and Eastern Time instead of PST and EST during DST!

It's just annoying to have an announcement made that says to check the forums for details, and then to find nothing on the forums. At the time, I didn't even know it was just Virtue going down.

It would be nice if they posted the information on the forums before saying that there's information on the forums. Or at least change their default message to "Information will be posted on the CoH/CoV forums shortly".

But... on the upside, the downtime gave me time to do a load of laundry. I had to wash my Underwear of Justice for work tomorrow, all I had clean was my Boxers of Righteous Fury.
If there's something seriously wrong with a server that requires unscheduled shutdown/maintenance, they're not going to wait till something gets posted on the forums about it. They just give the red text admin warning in-game and worry about informing people later. SOP. If they did it the way you want, they'd be risking more damage than has already happened and it would take longer to fix.

One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
