Maintenance extended until 2:00 p.m. PST

Posted on December 7, 2011 by admin

Realm maintenance has been extended until 2:00 p.m. PST ~~1:00 p.m. PST today (4 p.m. EST, 3 p.m. CST)~~. It’s the week after a major content patch, so it shouldn’t come as a huge surprise to anyone.

We recommend catching an episode of Community on Hulu while waiting for the realms to come back up. Actually, we don’t — I do. Hopefully, this makes up for the terrible faux pas I made in The Queue today.

We’ll update this post with any additional information we come across. Otherwise, just hang tight!

Update: 1:00 p.m. PST — Maintenance extended until 2 p.m. PST.

Extended Regularly Scheduled Maintenance

10:10 a.m. PST – We will be extending the regularly scheduled maintenance time in order to perform additional database checks. We anticipate all realms will be available at approximately 1:00 p.m. PST.

Extended maintenance announced for Tuesday April 26

Posted on April 25, 2011 by admin

Barring force majeure, it looks like patch 4.1 lands tomorrow, folks. Not only is the 4.1 trailer out, Blizzard has also announced extended maintenance for all realms for Tuesday April 25, beginning at 3 AM PST and ending at 11 AM PST. Expect it to last longer, as patch day maintenance usually does.

While servers are down, check out our Guide to Patch 4.1, including class analysis, dungeon previews, UI additions, and more. Stop the machinations of the Zandalari!

Maintenance extended: 5:00 p.m. PST

Posted on November 26, 2010 by admin

Maintenance today has been extended until 5:00 p.m. PST. If history tells us anything, it’s that it’ll be extended a couple more times, so I wouldn’t really count on it being up just yet. But Blizzard always has a good reason for doing so, namely, getting the servers working correctly.

So sit back, enter our contests today, and catch up on everything that was and will be.

This post will be updated and bumped up to the front of the site as the situation changes.

Updated 11:40a.m. PST: Maintenance has been extended until 5:00 p.m. PST.

Tuesday Morning Post: Elemental extended maintenance edition

Posted on November 16, 2010 by admin

Happy Tuesday morning, everyone. We’re barrelling headlong into the Cataclysm opening event, including fighting in the cities, so if you’ve been lax in logging on, now might be a good time to start. After all, there’s loot and achievements to be had, and stuff.

That said, you won’t be able to log on for a bit this morning, as the servers are going down for extended maintenance, from 3 a.m. to 11 a.m. PST. Personally, I’m blaming this on the fire elementals. I bet they got into the hardware. Luckily, we got your back with lots of good stuff to read from the past week while we wait for the servers to come back up. Keep it right here with us, and we’ll get through the downtime withdrawal together, I promise. We have our usual list of hot topics and useful guides below.
