The duty cap is obviously a critical error that moving forward shouldn't happen again - or if it does, SE should be able to alleviate it within a few hours (ideally one). I'm upset, too - I resorted to farming Ifrit Hard for RDM/SAM weapons. I wanna progress! I've got the time off, I have tons of food and drinks and snacks, and all my errands are taken care of. But saying "they should literally be fired" is a bit much.

As annoyed as I am by the protective wall of Ul'dah's favorite father and son duo, I feel really bad for those permanently stuck from the vengeful wrath of Susano-o. That, to me, is really royally messed up.

I mean, it's not the devs' fault, it's the fault of them not having enough resources allocated for the launch. They're trying their best, it's just a dismal launch because Square corporate is stingy with server resources. If they were willing to pay, they could have been using Amazon cloud services for the duration of the launch to dynamically allocate instance space.

They're still open to DDoSes, though, and as others said, it's not a simple process. I do agree it or an equally/more effective solution should be in place next time. vOv posted:It's fine because for some bizarre reason nobody seems to actually use them.

Which, whatever, more comms for me and 51-60 is trivial.

Neither is a good look, really Don't get me wrong - this is a critical/priority 1 problem. In my job, someone forgets to check a box and it costs thousands if not millions of dollars - equally rare and impactful. "I'm really mad" is a valid reaction. "They should be fired" is an overreach. Unless there's a trend or demonstrable malfeasance, like if this was a genuine mistake or an incorrect estimation, I'm reasonably confident whoever's responsible a) feels like poo poo, and b) wants to take steps to prevent this moving forward. *edit - Givin posted:How to SAM.
