For those saying that they got no warning, Discord and Nutaku warned us all that the update was happening today, for ten hours. If you're expecting to be compensated because you forgot/didn't know/didn't care and now you're upset because you missed a few gathers, that's kinda silly. It's a ten hour maintenance, and they told us it was going to be that long when they announced it for last week with only a day or two of notice. Now you've had a week to prepare for today's maintenance. We all lost some stamina regeneration time and some gathers because of the gargantuan down time, but to say the devs sprung this on us is false.



What's worse is today's maintenance is supposed to be the server change, which is meant to help alleviate some of the issues that the patches from last week brought in with the new background and whatnot. I've spent a week reading about how the last patch better be fixed on the server change, only to read today that people are now upset by the length of the downtime and how abruptly it came on. We all knew it was coming today, when it comes isn't particularly relevant; we should just be happy they're actively taking steps to improving the game.



And as for the reissued Canna event, you should have one more day/a dozen or so hours after today's downtime to finish your farming.
I personally finished up my alt's event grinding yesterday instead of Manyu farming because I knew I'd have limited time to use my Stamina on the Dragon Farming before the maintenance, so I planned accordingly. Finished the event, got my 6 yellow level 100 Dragons in my early runs, and finished up my Stam bar about ten minutes before the maintenance came on. Those who are complaining it's BS are kinda... just being childish.

Sorry if the text wall seems rude.

tl;dr: Dev's warned us don't expect to be compensated because you forgot big maintenance was today.
