sitting staring blankly at the computer monitor, with the occasional glance at the clock, waiting for maintenance to end.

I have no problem with Tuesday maintenance, I usually have plenty of things to do. The only time an "extended" maintenance bothers me is if I'm trying to catch a rare battle pet or Galleon, or something else that pops up right after maintenance, and it gets extended by two hours.
The last time this happened, they said servers would be up by 4:00 EST: I log on at 3:55 only to find the servers have been up for half an hour, with all the pets nabbed and dozens of new campers around me.

At least the pets are getting fixed in the next patch to have a legitimate spawn timer: it's too finnicky to have NPCs based around maintenance or server resets.

Edit: And now it's been extended again. I can expect to kiss my chances of getting a Galleon kill or Scourged Whelpling goodbye unless I try to log in every 5 minutes. Fun. :|

Yeah, the Scourge whelplings are eluding me to...Though last Tuesday they weren't even up right after servers came up, and an hour later they still hadn't spawned, hopefully today will be different!
Hate when it gets extended...I need to go grocery shopping, but cant go until I at least TRY to get a Whelpling!

They are "up" on Arathor to, at least according to the Flight path, but tried to get my WrA toon onto the Arathor server via a friends help and a lv 1 toon, but didn't see any.

"Maintenance has been extended until 3:00pm PST. Thanks again for your continued patience."

ROFLMAO!!!!! who ever said anything about "patience"??????

We're just not allowed to post our rantings on your "service status" thread! LOL

/sigh

hate long maintenance... it means I have to find things to do here in the REAL world.

but you still have to BUY Aion, right?

there's no monthly fee, but you have to pay for the game at the start?

I like how the blue poster is copy and pasting the same thing on every maintenance post, even though it goes to a locked thread. My thread has yet to be locked it's under the title "Maintenance Suggestion, here is what it says:

With LoL we get some kind of bonus if something goes wrong, many other games do this too. I think Blizz should give us an exp or rep bonus or something for the times when we can't log in, like today. Some of us have limited time throughout the day for dailies (starting to hate them btw), grinding/farming, and leveling. We are paying to play a game, not wait for hours with nothing to show for it.

And don't lock this post, the one you blues keep linking is out of room so no one can make suggestions there, also this is not a rant or "consolidate discussion" it's a suggestion. You blues are always saying "make a suggestion on the forums" well here it is.

Also a Gir minipet from Invader Zim would be cool.

/cross fingers it won't get locked. :mrgreen:

Nope, it seems they have a completely free model, just register and download and you're good to go.
