    Angry German Kid meeds WoW Maintenance (with Subtitles!). I think his behaviour is quite fitting, for lots of people raged today because of the maintenance!

    (Only 20 mins to go!)

    You can test all you want, there will always be hick-ups in the deployment of ANY change in ANY software. You can't please everyone, either the patch comes out too quick and there are issues or it's late because of fixing known issues before deployment and everyone QQs about having to wait.

    ... and the other half of the EU servers are coming back up, looks like they'll almost all be up in the next few minutes.

    The lag in trying to get into any realm is insane and most of them keep going online and offline at random. You're not through the woods yet.

    Indeed. Almost all servers now appear on the realm list, but they're going up and down like crazy, and you'll be lucky to log in. Which, let's face it, is normal for patch day.
