from the Herald:

Status: North American servers are offline.

We're planning to take the servers offline on Monday morning for maintenance, focusing on the in-game mail system. US servers will be offline beginning at 6:45 AM EDT, and are expected to return by 11:00 AM EDT. Oceanic servers will be offline at 1:45 PM EDT and are expected to return by 4:30 PM EDT. We'll be keeping you updated throughout the morning, so as always keep an eye here for updates!

This morning's downtime will allow us to make the following update:

General Changes and Bug Fixes:

* We have made improvements to the overall speed of the in-game mail system. Players should now find that sending and receiving mail takes less time, and that the system is more responsive.

<3 Mythic.
 
actually, not enough sleep OR coffee. I'm getting tired, and so I have to be doing something or I'll fall asleep.

Besides, if you notice the times on the posts, they were all several minutes apart. It wasn't spam, it was updates ;)
 
I never did complain about the weekly maintenance schedule of Blizzard. Baring a few issues, everything always seems more responsive after maintenance. I'm suprised Mythic goes so long without some maintenance. I'm sure there are 10's of thousands or more ghosted entries in Mailbox and Auction house databases that just need to get cleaned out once in awhile.
 
Actually, they've been having small patches at least once a week, but they address small things that take them an hour to patch... today's was one of the longest (that I can think of, anyway) at just under 4 hours.

and I agree. Normally scheduled maintenance is fine. I just don't like what Blizz did - went from being 2 hours every Tuesday to 6 or 7 hours.... and sometimes come back broken.
 
Working mailboxes? Perhaps I should seriously start crafting and send my seeds and ingredients to one mailbox.

that's my plan, Zeb.


Oh, and more notes from the Herald:

Greetings!

Happy Monday to everyone! We've been hard at work today, so without further ado here's today's round of hotfixes:

Content

Battle of Bitterstone: Killing Greenskin NPC's in stage 1 of this public quest will now properly award players with influence.
Neversong Caravan Defenders: Fixed an issue that was causing the kill counter in this public quest not to increment properly when the guards are killed.

An Ounce of Prevention: Fixed an issue with this quest which was sometimes allowing players to step the quest repeatedly from the same monster.
Finding the Fight: The Gor Captain will now spawn properly when players on the final step of this quest use the Gor Horn item.
Bolstering Our Army: Fixed an issue with this quest which was preventing Imronel Greenwood from speaking to players.
Items

War Calling Casque Helmet: Fixed an issue which was causing this item to display multiple careers in its career requirements list.

RvR

Fortress zones will now correctly flag players for RvR.
Fixed an issue with the Covenant of Flame keep which was sometimes causing guards of the wrong realm to spawn.

The Oathbearer Warbringers will now reward players for finishing the repeatable Doomfist Crater quests. Additionaly, they will now offer these quests to players who are at least rank 18.
