Because many of us prefer to play with our friends/guildies and not randoms. Definitely keep the grace timer!

As a Hib tailor, I am getting tasks to make "plain" dress robes, which I believe are Alb robes. This means I have to run out of TNN and tag a streaming wisp to die, so I can reset the task. The loss of XP and money really hurts.

Compared to Mythic and GOA at the time of 1.65 and recent games like Elite Dangerous, this is a hosting surpassing AAA publishing. We are getting a AAA service for literally free (and not hidden behind some obligatory micro payments as many "free" games).

Not saying I am absolutely happy about my queue position right know, but well I am not paying so I can't expect to have a slot on free of charge service. You could probably sell "premium slots" like hot potatoes right now, but you aren't.

You have my full mentally support for your work and effort (even if I might not agree with all decisions made ;)).

Very good job staff. But whit lets say 4000 on a server whit no expansions at all wouldent that mean way too many in the areas meaning we have to wait so mutch for mobs and whit the grind allready would mean never getting 50 ? (I allready feel this problem whit the limit you have now)

Waiting in queue for over 4 hours today... part of the trouble for US players is that it is harder for us to get in because of time zone. There are almost as many players waiting in the queue as there are in the server, and who knows how many bail out of the queue when they see the large wait. Maybe few suspected that this server would be so popular, but perhaps there is enough interest for more than one server here.

Just waited 4 and a half ****** hours in the queue. The game client bugged and didn't log in or something, so I ended the task thinking that with the LD grace time I would be fine. This was not the case. So now I am back in the queue at slot 1951 out of 2030 and I've already waited half the day. What in the flying ****** is going on with the servers?

Increasing server capacity would be great, of course, but I actually think server queues aren't too bad since they make Uthgard a lot more desirable (refer to basic human psychology at this point). Very long waiting times only increase frustration levels, though, so it should be around 30 mins max at primetime.

I'm really happy the server launched so successfully, congratulations to all involved (staff and testers). I really appreciate it.

The grace timer was a nice idea, but honestly ...Queue lines that stretch into tomorrow? Yes, as it stood before you had a chance of being thrown to the back of the queue line but the same rule applied to everyone. I would prefer to have a shorter queue with the possibility to be tossed to the back of the line should I LD than to wait all day for people to log off just so I can log on. I honestly had no problem with your previous system. It was unforgiving yet fair for everyone. As it stands now, the system benefits anyone who has the time to stay on longer than the average player. LDs were kind of the great equalizer :lol:

Started at #2378 in the queue. Approx 3 hours later was under 300 and something happened and the login queue box disappeared. Lost my place and logged in again, back to 1471. 90 minutes later and I'm up to 227.

Not a gripe - if I did something wrong to have it disappear the first time, please let me know.

Also, if there is anything I can do to support the server capacity becoming larger, I'll do that too!

Great job dev team :)
