WHY???

Q u o t e:
WHY???

Why? Well, how about an improving experience for starters? 'Clean up' and maintenance is also pretty key.

These things are necessary from time to time. We realize that lengthy maintenance periods aren't super fun, but they should help result in an even better play experience in the future. Other realms should remain available, so if you really need to get some World of Warcraft time in, that might be an option.

Some people have expressed concerns regarding the duration of the maintenance period and compensation. If you feel that compensation is merited by this situation, you can add your voice to those requesting compensation via a constructive thread on our Suggestions forum. While no responses will be forthcoming there, those in a position to make such a determination will be able to review your perspectives.
