Seams like you didn’t read the who post.
The server was suffering from server traffic around 4:00-9:00 PDT if you logged in around this window odds were you were to struggle to get into the server. After around 9:00 PDT the server was starting to stabilize and just about everyone was able to get in. If you didn’t get to try the stress test server out, you have no one to blame but yourself.
