The "following realms"? Shoulda just put "every realm" it would save everyone from all the scrolling
William Feb 13th 2010 3:23AM
Not every realm was affected.
Anne Stickney Feb 13th 2010 3:23AM
It's not every realm. Just...most of them.
Al Feb 13th 2010 4:49AM
Log-in screen gave up and just says "Majority of realms."
dbsheetz Feb 13th 2010 5:13AM
Constant interruptions like this is why i find myself playing AION more and more
Avan Feb 13th 2010 7:28AM
It looks like Emberstorm is the only battlegroup not affected.

Or the title should have read "Extended Maintenance NOT hitting -very- select US servers", he he.
Everyone go create lvl1 Paladins in the first realm available (did it last time in Dragonblight, lots of fun).
Also, surprised to see Latin American servers in the mix, they're usually not included in this urgent maintenance things.

My server isn't on there, which as others have pointed out, seems to be only emberstorm.
Which is nice, seeing how Hydraxis has been a special snowflake recently and been the only server going down at weird times in the morning.
Actually, scratch that. I rather Hydraxis get special treatment so it stops being so finky and dying on me three times during different dungeons before I finally give up.
Izzy Feb 13th 2010 10:31AM
Norgannon isn't on the list and it should be. It's running like a slow pig.
DeathPaladin Feb 13th 2010 12:35PM
It's not just Emberstorm that's not affected. None of the Nightfall servers are on the list, either.
Arashikou Feb 14th 2010 12:47AM
Actually, the first time they did this announcement, they did say "all realms EXCEPT the following", but I guess people still can't read or something, since they changed it.
Tripike Feb 13th 2010 3:24AM
If they can fix Tichondrius, it's worth it.
Boydboyd Feb 13th 2010 3:33AM
If they can fix Shadowsong, it's worth it.
Ginby Feb 13th 2010 3:54AM
If they can fix Shadow Council, it's worth it.
MasterAsh Feb 13th 2010 4:50AM
If they can fix Madoran. . .
Oh, who am I kidding? Ruin battlegroup FTL.
Aaron Hoffman Feb 13th 2010 5:14AM
If they can fix Stormrage, it's...
Damn - beat me to it.
Sean Feb 13th 2010 6:52AM
If they can fix Hydraxis it's worth it. Wait... it's not even on the list! Hydraxis needs maintenance badly! Server lag is unbearable.
Gamer am I Feb 13th 2010 7:18AM
If they can fix Thrall... we aren't on the list? Again? I guess that's our compensation for all of the times Thrall was the only server that was down.
Alexander Feb 13th 2010 7:57AM
If they can fix Blackrock its....worth it? Maybe, but I still havent been able to play when I get home from work for the past week.
TamChronin Feb 13th 2010 11:59AM
If they can fix Moonrunner...
Wait. What? What's wrong with Moonrunner???
