Back in the day WoW weekly maintenance was always 4 hours long... just saying.
And then the login servers would be overloaded and you couldn't get in for hours
And then when you did get in the lag was unplayable and then you'd dc and have to login again
And then they implemented queuing so at least you knew how many people were in front of you. Hours I spent on ventrillo relaying how long I had left in the queue before I could join the raid...
Because it isn't as simple as flipping a switch or hitting "start > restart" on your own PC. The integrity of the servers need to be checked, databases verified, that sort of thing. Just because there aren't any patch notes for a maintenance doesn't mean that backend maintenance isn't being done. It just means that the client isn't affected.
Where technology is involved, maintenance is never "simple".

3 weeks isn't a necro, under RoC. If more than 30 days have passed, THEN it's a necro.
