Did you guys tweak the PvE queues ... again??

It seems quite alot of the time when we have a large patch supposedly to "correct some issues" we find that the PvE queues have been mucked with and normal is advanced play and adv is elite play. It appears that way yet again in Brotherhood of the sword. Played on advanced as usual and found it to be elite, was advised not to fight and just take out the tech but wtf?? You all see the numbers in these queues lately? No one is in them, because no one wants to be wasting their time on a lost cause, because the devs can't leave que difficulty alone where it should be. FFS just don't touch the queues anymore and fix the bugs you know are there instead of creating new BS to secure your jobs.

    "creating new BS to secure your jobs".

    People that find they cannot enter a queue that is of the level they expected, or they find one has been tweaked generally will stop going into these queues. People that stop going into the queues completely, get bored and quit, i.e. no new player cash.

    It seems that TPTB have once again meddled with the difficulty levels of the PvE queues, making them so hard to play as to be useless to average to advanced players. This is why so many of the queues are empty. I played an advanced queue, but had so much agro that I died 21 times. I've sat in this normal queue now that used to be fun for well over an hour now, but no one else has joined.

    Did someone ask for the pve queues to be more difficult? If so, who? Why would anyone want to make the queues more difficult? I have alts that I am trying to level up and get better gear for, only to be denied because the pve queues have been changed so much that it is now impossible.

    If any dev or PTB is listening to my plea, please change the difficulty levels back to the way they were, i.e. normal = beginner, advanced = regular, and elite is well, elite?

    Is that so difficult to imagine?

    Ever thought about that this may be a simple mix-up in the code due to the patch and they probably will fix it with the next regular maintenance? After all, there was no patch note or general statement proclaiming an itnentional change. There is absolutely no reason to throw a tantrum rage and/or flame the devs about this, your lifes aren't ruined because you might not be able to play your regular STFs for a week.​​

    Nope, this has been a trend going on for some time now, that they started quite some time ago. In fact, they made specific mention that they were going to be doing it, starting with Azure Nebula. There was an article written about it a while back, and they have been creeping the difficulty levels up across the board ever since.

    But they need to stop, since they are making it more and more impossible for new members to find much enjoyment in the game, and as we all should know, new members are the life blood of any game.

    Hmmm lemme ask you this then. I purchased over 266 outfit slots over the course of the past 5+ years, more than what a lifetime sub costs, there is no limit to the amount of outfits one can have, yet mine "broke" at 263. "code mix-up"? If I was PWI I'd fire all of them and hire ones who can actually do "code" instead. Pretty sick n tired of these so-called "code mixups" that never get fixed. Also you think this 1 thing about the Instance tweak is the only thing? It's an ongoing situation, usually what does get fixed is only fixed until a new season and then it's back or worse it's not back but is replaced with worse and brought friends just as bad as the original "bug". If it takes you 2 hours to respond trollishly to a concern and dismiss it by offering up an excuse, then you are an enabler and of no use to the initial problem at hand. Unless ofc you can do "code mixup fixes".

    Because throwing tantrum-fits is very "helpful" for everyone. Things and opinions can be said in a way that you don't go insulting other people too.
