That's the typical response from the folks who can't do more than whine

As for me, I've had a few issues now and then, but I can count on one hand
the times I haven't been able to log in when I wanted to play since I
picked up the game sometime last October.

I'm in the same position. I started playing in March 2005 and I have
been in very few queues that have inconvenienced me (maybe two or three
above 5 minutes) and I have certainly only been prevented from playing
once or twice.


What server are you on? I'd love to play on yours.

I'm not being sarcastic, btw.

Also, what time do you play? I'm in California, and if I log in after
midnight, and during the morning, I get little lag and disconnect and
such, as the load is lesser on the servers.

I play on Frostwhisper and Sunstrider (both EU) and I log in most days
at around 4.30 for an hour or two and log back in on Tuesday and
Thursday between 7.30 and 8.30 until about midnight. The only thing
that has really bugged me in all that time is loot lag which was a big
problem when I first started and can sometimes be a problem now.


Now, as to your post...is it your place to insult someone for being
unhappy that a service they pay for is unavailable? Why do you
characterize it as "whining"? What that called for? Considering you only
have anectdotal experience with your own gameplay (which we have to take
on faith), which goes against the experiences of most servers these
days, do you really have a leg to stand on to call others names and
negate their unhappiness to use a product as it's intended?

Oh please! The guy (the OP) deliberatly started the thread so that HE
could insult anyone who disagreed with him and then have a verbal
fight. He (almost literally) asked for insults.

You are dangerously teetering into fanboi territory, but if you could
provide more data to back up your experience and prove that it's all
just whining and that most people are not experiencing issues with the
servers, then we';ll take a look and determine your credibility. M'kay?

Why is he close to being a fanboi? He made one post that made two
points. The first was to say if people are that unhappy about the
service then they shouldn't pay the monthly fee. The second was that
he has not had many problems since he bought the game. Ok, he threw in
a mild insult but it doesn't even compare to the level of abuse the OP
is dishing out at anyone who disagrees with him.
