Ppl still suprised about extended maint on patch day?Sunwell patch was almost 23 hours down.I came home 19 from work and servers were still screwed.

Here we go again.. just got kicked and half the servers are DCed.

I still wish Blizzard would learn to underpromise and overdeliver. Nobody is surprised it got extended. Nobody seems to think it's unreasonable that it got extended. So why not just call it up front and say "servers will be down from 5am PST to 3pm PST" or whatever, and if it's done earlier, blue post? They shouldn't even set the expectation that a patch day will go like a normal maintenance window.

Exactly this. It's yet another in a long string of slaps to the faces of their customers. Giving a realistic completion time would be trivial, but somehow, Blizz has reached a level of internal disfunction where they cannot.

Lol I still find it funny we can go right into MoP @ Midnight, but we can't have patches ready when they say. Oh well guess I can go eat now, lol

That's because most of the work was done with the release of 5.0.
