Move to the US. Patching takes place in the mourning while people are at work or still sleeping. It's great to be an American!!!!

Hey we have to put up with your HORRIBLY OUTDATED internet connections that caused CCP to CAP the bandwith, so the least you can do is to put up with patching during your day.

I think it would be great if they would just tell us its going to take 6 hours.. but only take 4, so we could get it "early".

Horribly outdated internet???
Last I checked, Europe was wayyyy ahead of the states, man... I live in little old Denmark, where practically everybody gaming has at least 256/256 - most are actually on broadband... just got back from the US where I spent an agonizing 2 weeks on 56k *shudder*

 Just make sure that after you guys have installed the patch you will clean the CACHE folder inside the game (including the prefs.ini file).
This will in 100% save you from future problems and incompatibilities.

Midday GMT seems pretty fair to me.
Majority of players will work during the day (like me right now), so only weekends really an issue.
Any earlier and you'll be affecting late night players across the pond or australia or somewhere. Any later and people coming home from work in Europe would be unable to play.
Sorry if I don't get upset about the timing for UK / European players who stay home all day! 
edit: With, of course apologies to the tiny minority who work nights and aren't lazy gits.

Kid, just because scandinavian countries are on top of ****e that does not mean all of Europe is.
Also, broadband (adsl,dsl) is just the broadband of poor people, try cable, then laugh.
And EVERY gamer in the us that plays online and does not live in the STIX has cable internet.

with a worldwide player base .. no matter when they patch.. or how long the patch takes... there will always be some people discomfeted. Relax. have a coffee... watch a trashy talk show.. take a nap.. CCP want's the cluster up asap believe me they do.
They chose the update time to try to be as fair as possible... ease up people.. have a group hug

Cache ~1.1GB
Portraits ~1GB
prefs.ini 228kB
As long as my client seems to be the most stable/fast one of all the players I've been talking to so far, I won't clean it either.

Do you people forget that CCP is an European country. And gasp they do their work during their normal work hours?!?
I damn sure wouldn't stay up half the night in an attempt to please 1/2 of the world, knowing I'm going to **** off at least 1/2 no matter when I do it.

Hey
It's 3pm here in the UK and the network is still down?
Is it the network or me that is causing this?

Now they've pushed the time to 15:00 GMT. It doesn't make me feel at ALL secure in the new patch update if the maint/upgrade takes 5 freakin' hours to do.

heya!
Well... it's bugs me a lot that it's allways same ppl ****ed up waiting during SDTs or EXTENDED OF EXTENDED OF EXTENDED SDTs!
And yet again, no one of CCP will make a statement what is going on. Typical.

I love the way the U.S. crowd categorise every country in Europe as the 'euro crowd' and assume that we all have the same internet access and structure.
Most common now in the UK are either DSL or Cable, cable standard is 1Mb.
Its vastly different for other countries though, my brother has a 2Mb leased line in Switzerland for less than half the cost.

There is a link on slashdot.org today that will end all argument over who has the crappiest net.
And its the US by a LONG WAY!!!
Only ex russian countries have poorer take-up and speeds than the US.
Argument over -*****y yanks get it handed to them again :P
At least it wasnt by one of your own for once - friendly fire dont exist on the net :P

Oh just accept the fact that there is no good time for them to do anything server related so they will choose the time that's best for them according to their work schedule.
Yall'd hate me if I was in charge. The servers I admin, I down whenever I feel like it. 8am, 3pm, 11pm? Time doesn't matter, my workload does
