Lockout Timer: A PSA

Every 8 hours...
  • 185,281 babies are born
  • The U.S. increases it's debt by 1.2 Billion dollars
  • Lindsey Lohan steals a necklace
  • Casey Anthony murders a baby
  • Michael Vick kills a dog
  • Adam Lambert changes his sexuality
  • Neovolk gets his account banned
  • A 14 year old playing Black Ops says the word "pussy" 7,273 times.
  • Ke$ha aquires a new disease
  • You are locked out of destro/order
Hello there, Mythic, every 8 hours things happen, and they're not always good things.  I am requesting that you please change the lockout timer to like.. I don't know, 4 hours.  Because 8 hours is too long, not only that but the timer is also buggy, and I've had it not start until I've played about 4 hours in, so instead of 8 hours it was actually 4 hours.  Hell, sometimes when I play my Order character's it doesn't even start... that is until I log out. Played 6 hours, check timer, oh hey, the timer is at 8 hours.

The following picture is of a player who has realized he still has a billion years to play on his lockout timer.
Mwahaha! You thought I wouldn't fit in a cat in this post but I did! But this cat's story is quite sad, he decided he wanted to try a Warrior Priest but ended up not liking the class, so he tried to go back to destro but... HE STILL HAD 7 HOURS ON HIS LOCKOUT TIMER. /gasp
3 hours left would be a reasonable time don't you think?  It would not seem like a large gap like 7 hours does.

But really.. I would suggest that the lockout timer's timer be changed to like.. 4 hours instead of 8 hours, I think 8 hours is too long.

  1. Of course the timer should start from the moment you log out or it would defeat the point of making crossrealming more difficult!

    Think before you type.
