Ahahaha if the servers get bugged again as with the AH and friends list, if everyone freezes they won't even bother to change it and we will have to play like this until the next maintenance!
This is simply disappointing, playing as much more fun 2 years ago

I honestly don't know why people are getting so worked up about this. There are many many mmo's that only have 1 server restart a week and that is during their maintenance.
Daily restarts are costly,time consuming and not necessary.
Restarting [and, more so, power cycling] is the most stressful period of hardware activity for a computer. You have most everything spinning up to 100% -- disk and fans... ...as well as significant fluctuations in component temperatures. Modern hardware is incredibly resilient, but that shouldn't be a reason for just bouncing servers, on a whim, a few times a week.
Aside, I loathe when techs "just" reboot a Windows server in the case of a failed service, or the like. I understand the need to get the service running again, but a reboot should be the last step in trouble shooting a server. Identifying, and fixing should be the main priority !

but as we don't have ANY support at all not even the daily restart will fix problems anymore

There is still a weekly maintenance though, although they don't do nothing to the game they do maintenance on the servers. Thats all thats needed technically.Quote:

But we do need support and bug fixes in game, the servers will be fine though without the daily restarts
