    Can't login either. It's a server issue.

    Would it be too much to ask to click one of the existing threads about this?

    I know it's hard to check for GW2 on facebook/twitter but there is a similar thread about this topic right on this website's homepage.

    ridiculous that I have to come to a 3rd party mmo site and read a thread by a player to find something that should be plastered all over the support page that the error message points me to .. or the forums .. if there even were forums ... /facepalm

    LFD tools are great for cramming people into content, but quality > quantity.
    I am, usually on the sandbox .. more "hardcore" side of things, but I also do just want to have fun. So lighten up already :)

    There were messages in the game itself. In the chat as well as right where it usually says "There is an event nearby."

    2 outta 2 days they have maintenence at midnight pacific time.  Really bad ideas, really frustrating, sit in 2 hr queue for WvWvW and then get dropped 15 mins later

    yeah, I saw the messages too, like 1 hr ago

    Determining from the amount of spam on these forums at the moment, I'd say yes, the server is down.

    People play from all over the world.  Any time they bring the servers down will affect someone's prime playing time.  Midnight Pacific just gives them the biggest window to do maintenance.  Most normal people are asleep in the U.S.  East Asia is getting off work.  Europe is starting work.  

    Don't be so self-centered and take time to understand why someone makes a decision.

    It was plastered ingame, by way of a system message, and also on every media outlet that ANet inhabits.

    Instead, you choose to come to MMORPG.com to see what is up?

    Facepalm indeed...

    I was crafting in game when ArenaNet said the game will be down for maintenance for about 50 minutes, which most likely would mean an hour or so. It could be longer though.

    god i dont understand this twitter stuff then, when i press that link all i see is the last tweet of "please fill in a support ticket".

    no wonder i cant see updates on twitter then, when i apparently dont know how to use it lol.

    No ETA and it's back up (for me at least). Oh well back to the game

    Many people keep saying check twitter and FB, but that's not how a reputable company officially communicates. That's how children communicate, and responsible adults do not (mainly for the fact of the cookies and privacy issues, i.e. MySpace).

    ANet needs to address it's playerbase via their forums. A safe site they control. Anything else is inviting trouble.

    Its on twitter. I get your point, but honestly its not that big of an issue. I know game companies that have the official channels with less communication. ANET has always been good with communication (not something i really care about TBH but its good)
