If anyone else has d/c and is having the same trouble as I am, you know what I'm talking about. ><

Error Code:POL-0206 (All right!)

10 hour maintenance, and now this?
 
I logged out to my mule and my game froze, now I can't get back on. Oh well, i wanted to get a bite to eat anyway.
 
heh I cant even get past the first login screen on POL XD

I would REALLY like to know what they have to do that has to take all freakin day for some maintenance. All this money ppl pay to play this game, I'd like to know what they specifically do during this so-called "maintenance". Kinda odd to me that they do all this maintenance and the game still messes up.
 
I got on to POL and then logged to ffxi, but got booted about 30 mins ago.

Doubt they'll get it straightened out within the next few hours.
 
Do they do maintenance during peak japanese playing hours or is just us?
 
I mean, I was actually in, my modem went dead just long enough for me to lose connection, and now I can't log back in..My friend couldn't get back online either.

Oh, and also, I was trying to send messages to my friends in Quetzy, because I was on Alexander at the time..Kept getting "Failed to send. (5)"
After a first message like that in Japanese..I was like "Wtf, I don't have the Japanese client!?"

Their "maintenance" is always BS, and we all know it. ><
 
I'm no computer expert, but when every POL user in the world is trying to log in at once(And I'm sure almost all of them are), what less can you expect?
 
I got in the first try when I was on earlier..

That's why I'm angry at SE for their shitty "maintenance" jobs.
 
Well, it is hard to manage a lot of servers, and as Cythe said, when everyone is trying to log in it's gets all messed up.

Just wait a couple of hours, you should be on soon :P

Yep, a login server like they(and most MMOs) use is a wait in line type of thing like Fileplanet for example. When it's hit too hard the server gets full and refuses your connection to the login server. This is what 0206 and 0011 pretty much are.

And like Raivyn said(think it was), I got to POL, patched and tried to start up.. got a 5306 or some such and booted back to POL and it failed to download messages and then 0011'd me :)
 
Yeah..I'm glad I got the update this morning before the servers went down..
 
Most people complain just cause SE has an abyssmal service record I think.

Everytime without fail there will be a problem, and that just makes people upset as a whole lol.

Extension, totally predictable :(

Well - I'm gonna go watch a fuckin movie or somethin.
 
Be glad they let us stress test the new backbone instead of doing it during maintenence! You should be happy to assist Square in this important stage of server load testing.

Lol, these are the people that had this as their first MMO.. you ought to have seen Ultima Online as it came out of beta.. or for that matter Anarchy Online ;)
 
Yeah, it could obviously be worse - doesn't EVE online have nightly maintenence?
