Greetings all!
We understand that maintenance can represent an inconvenience. We’ve all been there; wanting to play, and unable to to, and you definitely have our sympathies.
For better or worse, maintenance is absolutely necessary to preserve the best performance possible on the realms.
Fortunately, frequently over the past several weeks extended maintenance was announced but the realms came up early. This Tuesday it has proven necessary to keep the realms down while some important work is done.
Please refrain from posting threads expressing your concerns about the maintenance in this forum, however.
We are unable to change these circumstances at all, nor are we able to forward requests for maintenance changes from this forum.
If you’d like to see maintenance cease, or schedules change, then you may post in our Suggestions forum. Persisting in posting here on this subject may represent a violation of our forum code of conduct.
You may monitor our Service Status forum and Breaking News page for updates regarding the progress of the maintenance:
