15 minutes is not long enough

I left classic because an elite ?? mob killed me from 80 yards away by meleeing me, and then I couldn’t release and after sitting there for 4 minutes with 5 minutes left before it automatically placed me at the spirit healer, I said a lot of vile words towards the quality of the game and went back to retail… Only to get shut down notices mid-dungeon. Woot.

Somewhere, they did. And it must have been some sort of cascading issue that they chose to respond to as quickly as they were able. You can be as outraged as you want, but it seems pretty petulant to me. Just stop and consider that Blizz always gives advance notice for maintenances. They didn’t this time. Must mean it’s something pretty serious, right?

You can’t use logic here! This is GD!

An emergency is an emergency.

But you do have time to get on the forums and throw a temper tantrum like a child, right?

I don’t know if anyone noticed, and obviously it seems like everyone in this thread is oblivious - but servers have been having weird issues since last Tuesday after maintenance. Log in issues where it just sits on retrieving realm list, issues where you can see others moving in game, see /2 moving in game, but none of your actions are responsive, black character screens, no realms available messages.

I really haven’t seen a ton of these reports, but I have definitely been experiencing them myself and I don’t usually have any of these problems.

I thought by the title this was a m+ thread and anyway the timer should be an hour and the faster you complete it the higher key you get

As for the maintenance oh well it is what it is get over it

What about my post was a “temper tantrum”? I didn’t immediately say that Blizzard is all mighty and this is a great decision, and questioned their design philosophy vs this decision timing, and apparently that’s somehow blasphemous.

I think you need to grow up big guy.

lol we had a guildie start a +20 key and server maintenance came up.

Wrong.

You can be as outraged at people justifiably lodging complaints and being hypocritical all you want, but you’re just what you accuse others of being.

Not really, had one just last week too. 2-3 times a week is bad.

Nope means the devs are incompetent as always. Though less so than the people that defend them.

Blizz won’t even give people back their rating, ensure they get what they would’ve gotten from M+ or anything else.

I haven’t had any issues at all. I didn’t realize it was an emergency today, though. Someone in another thread, that was deleted, said it was maintenance. Emergencies are emergencies. Nothing can be done about that.

I’m so glad you posted this! It’s so insightful and so useful! No one knew it was emergency maintenance, and now that you posted this, 15 minutes is totally long enough and totally allows existing key groups enough time to finish!

I definitely don’t think it was something that everyone was being impacted by, but I definitely have noticed it all week long.

Well, it fits the RP to a T! Sorry bout your run though.

Emergencies don’t tend to forwarn people.

“excuse me good sir, please prepare, there’ll be a fire consuming your house in four hours, have a good day.”

You don’t have nearly enough intelligence to “question Blizzard’s design philosophy”.

Seriously just allow 30 or 40 minutes instead so existing groups don’t have their key bricked. It’s not that hard.

Only a 6 and you’re crying? Bruh…
