Lets see... If you went to a movie theatre and you missed the same ratio of time that we are missing in a month of FF XI.. you'd miss 1/30 of the movie... average movie lenth is around 2 hours... so you'd miss..um..what 2-4 mins? I wouldn't be asking the theatre to give me a handout over missing 2 minutes of a movie, and I won't be asking for a handout from squeenix for missing one day in a month, either.
GOOOOO Squeenix tech dudes!!!
BOOOOO Hackers and Attackers!!!

y do u peeps keep blamin SE. They are trying to provide us with a good gaming service (FF11) but sum ppl out their keep hackin and attackin FF11 servers. SE only do this emergency maintenence to fix the damage these hackers are causin so dont go blaming SE. If you wanna blame sum1 blame those f****** hackers/attackers not SE.

SE will continue doing emergency maintenence until these hacker/attackers stop messin up the FF11 servers.

probably cause at the time of day we were trying to get on theres something like 4000+ peeps on my server alone. mostly asian i gather since early in the morning is their prime playing time. now theres only 1700 and i have no problem logging in or searching. funny how that works.
hmm

Well I'll never /logout before bed anymore... Needed a way to relax after writing end-of-semester papers. I guess Counter Strike will have to do for now.

WoW isnt worth the money. i bought and installed now regret. i think its a pointless knock off. its now on ebay.
RE: lmao

agreed o.O

It didnt even keep me for a month.

Only thing better is that there is basically no server down time, and when there is extended downtime they repay you with "full rest state."

Question Time!!!

ok uhmm i am unsure but I'm on Seraph so technically i should be able to log in and play right?? But i can't cause the servers are to busy for me to connect to POL Viwer. Maybe i should just mash the connect key till i get logged in lol

one more thing you know what pisses me off? On http://www.playonline.com they have that Vana'diel Live video of whats goin on in the servers........ I HATE IT, ITS SUCH A TEASE TO ALL OF US WHO CAN'T PLAY IT ='(

RE: just wondering

nope ... not since the first time!
Um...

im not worried about the gilsellers or buyers. i dont see that as a major problem cause the majority of long term players earm gil the right way. i mean honestly its not changing any one servers economy. the is still being made and spent.

im more concerned about NM camping. i think its unjust and unfair. only time i was even able to get an NM was after the update when there were only 500 people in the server. i would much rather see some sort of limit placed upon the attacking of an NM by any one person or party.
Um...

There's better things to argue about than just whining against SE.

-Gilsellers
-Hackers
-Gilbuyers
-Scammers
-The ones *attacking* servers...

And I think if SE does emergency maintenance like that, it's basically to get rid of these problems. I think it's a good thing, personnaly.

Just hope they'll do something about gilsellers/gilbuyers someday... >.<
hmmm

well was able to log in only after restarting pc. then i went to change from mule to main and got dced. what crap!
To game or not to Game that is the Question

Its all a game yes but when I have time to play and cannot and am paying RL Money I earned from an RL job on it I expect to be able to play!

This is not insurance where you pay for something that may or may not happen.

If you go to the movies do you expect the film to play or for you to just watch the previews?

Do you go to the store and buy an item and leave it at the store?

Ever go to the gas station and buy gas just to not fill your tank and drive off?

I am wondering if I can claim this on my taxes as a charitable donation since I am paying SE for nothing?

Well I feel some what empty and yes if this does continue I will still try to log in but I must say most companies are willing to discount for loss of entertainment were as SE will not and does not grant any compensation for loss of service they provide.

I think this is sad but what a way to get rich!

If you all send me money I will not give you any service nor will I promise you anything That is the truth. So the money should be rolling in :)

Later all good luck hope some of you can get to play.

"We're sorry, the movie theater/store/gas station is closed for emergency maintenance to put out a FIRE currently burning on our premises.

"We realize that it is Saturday afternoon, and that you paid bus fare to get here -- but management has decided it's in everyone's best interest to shut down to put the fire out."

Hmmm... I guess emergency maintenance happens in the real world too.

^^

Look, s*** happens. I for one am *glad* that Squenix is on top of things enough to fix these problems as soon as they crop up.

So I didn't get to play Saturday afternoon. The world hasn't ended, as far as I've noticed...

Getting angry at Squenix is like getting angry at your doctor for telling you that you need to spend a couple days in the hospital. Yes it stinks, but isn't it nice to know someone is trying to fix things for you?

-- Nup!

People really need to deal with their frustration at being locked out of FFXI due to situations beyond their control. Threatening to not pay (we know you wouldn't even attempt it, you're just frustrated and trying to vent) just means SE would halt your account.. who wins then?
It isn't a matter of a life versus a non-life, either. If you are breathing, you're alive, right? Good plan, huh? Keep on breathing. The game will go on, your character will still be there. Take the oppurtunity of a few hour respite to meet fresh air and sunshine? Save an animal from a shelter, or... catch up with rl friends. I'm an evil genius, I know.

STOP BEING IGNORAMUSES OVER FFXI. Deal with the frustration.. relax!

On that note >_>.... WHY CAN'T I GET ON >_< *smashes head over keyboard repeatedly until keys stick into the forehead*

We will now resume your normally scheduled rant.
Patience. :)

Wonderful idea. Tell everyone else to stop trying to sing in so YOU can sign in. How many people do you think are actually going to listen? ^^

You know what? It's funny, I am having no troubles with my game. I can get on Pandemonium easily. You just have to be on a server that's healthy. *knocks on wood* We don't have many problems like this. I don't remember emergency maintenance on our server ever since I've been playing.
