Part of getting a new expansion and there will be more of them.

It’s funny watching all the people whine though.

We pay for this SaaS product. Wanting to be compensated for our inability to use that service isn’t as ‘silly’ as you’d seem to imply.

I’ve played since Vanilla. For those that miss the daylong (sometimes weeklong) issues, remember that we’re nearly 2 decades past all of that. The SaaS market has the ability to deliver nearly 100% uptime now. Blizz apparently does not.

Is this the routine 1 hour down or 8 hours as we were informed? I thought 8 hour down time was tomorrow?

we pay for this SaaS product which the owner has an agreed upon right at time of subscription to disable the service anytime they want without compensation.

Any chance this is gonna be done early? I’m not hating on maintenance I just happened to take today off work to take my dogs to their vet appointment and now I was looking forward to grinding. Might as well go back to work if its gonna take this long.

It means they’re building the pipes and roads that will connect us with the shadowlands and pre-patch.
