Annoying Maintenance Times

Why do people find the need to create posts complaining about maintenance times?

Surely you have read your terms of service agreement, right? The one that you are forced to say "yes" to every time you log in? Surely you've read it completely in its entirety & fully understand all the obligations of service, right?


Why do I do do do things I do
Nobody was ever there for me to talk to
Once I was youngster, pure and true
Now I'm running with a sick, sick crew.

If you're truly that bored, and a book or movie or what-not-online can't hold your interest I have only one suggestion for you.





Clicking on the linked image above will take you off the City of Heroes site. However, the guides will be linked back here.

A Major MMO recently had a unannounced 14 hour downtime for unspecified reasons.
So, yes it is not uncommon.

Yes. Especially when a patch is being applied. Get used to it.

Unless you count the griping of self-entitled players.

I would prefer my game servers to be updated by people who are both rested and in a good mood.
