Many times there has been an announcement that the servers are coming down in 3 minutes and then maintenance happens. This is fine if no one is doing anything that takes very long, but some people are in boss fights and events and such and will be busy for a little longer.

May we please have a 10 or even 15 minute warning before they go down? It would give us much more time to find a nice safe area to go log out from.

Also, just something that I’m a big fan of, I collect dyes, I would REALLY love to be able to preview them before I buy them from the trading post.

Thanks for reading.

Uh, they do give an half-hour to an hour notice. However, that message does not reach characters that log on after the statement is given. That is what needs to be fixed.

actually, they give the one hour maintenance message, then you’ll see a 3 minute warning roughly 20 minutes before the servers are supposed to go down

they also have more of the “new build” restarts than they do of the maintenances, which generally also have the 3 minute warning
