I have had several problems logging in for the past 3 days, the issues are various:
1."retrieving character list" process takes ages
2.loading screen gets stuck at +/- 80% (for almost as long as the character list)
3.whenever i do log in i get random disconnects (noted that this happens very rarely compared to the other two)
i hope you guys are aware of these problems because it's really annoying, i'm afraid to switch characters sometimes as everytime i log out, i have to wait for 10 minutes
(edit)
I've had this problem on frostwolf since i only play there, so i'm not sure how the other servers are holding up.
