pwi gave no info, no announcement, no statement or in fact anything ragarding the botched daylight savings maintanacne.
currently many people find themselves factionless after they log in (at least on RT). this is quite disturbing for a faction member, if they are not aware of the latest gltich that doesn't show any faction-related information and makes the unaware player think that they have been kicked from their faction.

so we introduced a 'GLITCH ALERT' box on our faction page to inform our members of the current gltiches, their effects, and the possible workarounds. this way people wont panic if they see themselves factionless or with a different scary 'condition' that the next maintanance might bring. it also frees the faction forums from 'is the server down?' etc. threads and shouts. new gltiches and bugs after pretty much every major patch is a permanent condition with pwi. this is our way of 'dealing' with it. i thought i share our idea. f:grin

how does your faciton deal with the 'maintanace' related panic and frustration of your members? f:brick

pan gu loves cash shoppers as much as he loathes pure farmers. that's why he cursed me with the lowest luck-index possible. my weapon needed 21 recasts for those meh adds, and the r9 ring refine ate over 10k mirages before i capitulated and orbed it from 0 to +11. you won this time pan gu! b:sad

    Did the maintenance "glitches" only affect Raging Tides? Because I've found nothing unusual on Archosaur, and Raging Tides has been getting a LOT of crashes lately.

    I think the guild bug has only been happening on RT, but all the east coast servers have been randomly lagging out/crashing lately. RT's been crashing a lot more than DW+HL though.
