You know what is interesting?
Companies such as Blizzard have heavily utilized Twitter to share news such as maintenance schedules for a good while.
But now Twitter requires an account to view tweets. I’m not making an account on that clow fiesta website.
So I guess I just don’t get to see Blizzards maintenance schedules anymore?
I tried to find another official source but it resulted in a page not found.
Boy if you only knew what crawls around in your carpet…
yes please.
it is already factored into the price you pay
That is SO interesting.
It comes out to about $0. 02 per hour this month.
I guess they want a check or something
They’ve never said it’s only on Tuesdays. That’s just the weekly reset maintenance. You’ll live.
I’m at work and the game will be good to go when I get home.
No it isn’t. If your time was that valuable, it wouldn’t be wasted in a game
Through time that’s how,which we do see now…later…maybe tomorrow. 
Or complaining on the forums
Last I checked, the Terms of Use you agreed to say otherwise.
But also, seriously, who gripes about an hour of downtime during the week?
Me neither, only time I ever tried to get on Twitter, I was refused an account.
Guess they didn’t like my security standards.
It should show on your launcher and on the breaking news on your character select screen.
I did see this the other day regarding the Twitter issue.
I respect your opinion, but that is not a real mandate.
You all really do need to read the terms of service.
Would it be nice for them to do a little something extra every time this happens? Sure who’s going to complain about that… But is it realistic? No.
Ridiculous. When you sign the TOS when you agree to subscribe and pay / play the game, it’s included in the fine print that there will be scheduled and sometims not times of necessary maintenance. No one is “Losing money” because of 2 hours a day maintenance a few times per week.
I’d rather have them do the maintenance than have the game crash. This is ultra entitlement to whine about fifty cents you might have lost for a few extra maintenance days.
It’s not like they close the game for 8 hours a day several times a week. It’s more like 1-2 hours a couple of times.
You’ll survive.
instead of belittling people complaining about downtime, yall should try to slightly sympathize with them. It’s completely reasonable to be frustrated when there is unexpected maintenance and it doesn’t mean those frustrated are terminally online wow addicts.
That being said - 1 hour downtimes periodically throughout the week, especially shortly after patches or while devs are working on fixing a feature, is also completely reasonable. If downtimes are especially egregious, Blizz will grant everyone gametime but that requires servers to be down like, atleast 16-24 hours within a single week. Even then it’s only like a day, maybe 2 of gametime.
I mean… would you rather them not work on fixing things?
For how much people like to complain about bugs or things being broken.
They equally like to complain if the game gets taken down to fix said things.
It was down for 15 minutes. There is no sympathy.
