Apologies if this is the wrong forum.
It seems to me that every time the game server is down (eg: for maintenance), the forums are also down. This seemed to be the case throughout the Open Beta Period. Now the most recent announcement of the maintenance claimed this would not be the case but when the game server went down, the forums followed.
If the game server is down, many people would go to the forums for information... information they can not get if the forums are down.
I can think of no real good rational for this and would like to assume it is some sort of scheduling mishap, but I think it may be something that requires review.
As a side note, the 1am maintenance time is kind of a bummer for us US west coasters. I realize no time is great for everyone, but that seems a bit early, especially on the weekends for what I assume (possibly arrogantly so) is a region that makes up a good chunk of the target audience. I'd like to request that the scheduling get a second look out there.
Have fun, heroes!
