[QUOTE=Deth 2 All;701733]What good is a system notice to those that are not online. I think a 24 hour notice system email for server maintenance would be more appropriate. At least then players would know EXACTLY when the maintenance was going to take place and they would have adequate time to prepare for the downtime.

This is a suggestion I agree with. There should be notice of at least 24 hours of server maintenance. That way players can prepare. Obviously work does need to be accomplished on the game, but not knowing when this is happening not only creates confusion, but people lose hard earned game elements. Time and money are both included here. Respect for those who play the game and have made Evony popular should be practiced by the company. I would also suggest some customer service training for a few of the moderators who seem just short of rude when concerns are being addressed.
