It's that untimely moment of the year where ANet bans 33,000+ accounts.

Honestly, it caught me off by surprise too. I didn't hear about any maintenance for the actual game itself. Just wiki.

I always figure any maintenance takes an hour, so according to my sundial, we got another 20 minutes.

Isn't it obvious? They're preparing the servers so that they can cope with the massive WoC update coming later today...right?

Im really annoyed by this. Lost my VQ of Joko's Domain. This proves how shitty anet is to its customers. Things like this make me wish blizzard owned GW.

Try exiting completely, there seems to be a new build too. I was getting the same thing and that usually happens when I've been logged out by the game and try to reenter w/o loading the new build.

if your friend has multilaunch then he needs to delete the multi folder and relaunch GW from the original folder.

I just shut it down and run my short cut with the -image switch. Made an -image shortcut for the GWCopy directory too. Haven't had to delete anything in the 3 months or so that I've been using it in Win7. YMMV obviously.

Im guessing since its 1:30 the maintenance is 2 hours or more. its time for a smoke break.
