You're clearly not even reading my posts. It wasn't about my play time, I just mentioned that I'm affected too and I don't care.
It is totally awesome that they're having nightly down time to enhance gameplay. It's not just my gameplay, it's everyone's. No one is being given the middle finger, I just don't sympathize with people crying about the down time when it's completely justified.
edit: going to completely clarify my stance on this, keep an eye on this post.
Nexon has made a lot of empty promises in the past, but this isn't like that. They made one statement, and that was to apologize for the recent issues and to address that they were working on them. And that's what they're doing. These things don't fix themselves, and they're clearly working very diligently on these issues while trying not to disrupt the game for the target demographic of players, which is undeniably Americans.
Unfortunately this inconveniences Europeans, but in truth, they are lucky to be playing GMS in the first place. That may be controversial and unfair, but it's fact. Nexon America did not need to allow Europeans to keep playing after EMS was launched, just as they wouldn't need to keep it open if a Canadian MS was launched, despite how much time/effort/money anyone has put into GMS. In the current case, European's are given three options: tolerate local version down time, play EMS, or not play MS at all. If you choose to play GMS, that means you choose to tolerate the down time, and therefore choose to suck it up. No one is stopping you from complaining, but it also doesn't stop me from saying SUCK IT UP. If I went over to EMS and complained about your down times the proper response would be SUCK IT UP.
Local versions have local priority. This will inevitably inconvenience some, but in choosing to play a foreign version, that is something you need to tolerate.
