Haha. 7 pages already.

My post was never intended as a whine to say "boo hoo I can't play my FFXI! I'll die if I can't play my FFXI!" Bullshit. I had better things to do yesterday. Like SLEEP since I was sick as a dog. In fact, that's what I did each time my download started and failed. But it sure would have been nice if there was a queueing system and I could just click update and go to sleep and not babysit it til it was done. If that were the case, I wouldn't care how long the update took. Instead if we want to get our software updated, we have to sit there and click retry over and over again. As network administrator and designer I was just complaining about how retarded Square Enix's IT staff obviously is. They have a game designed for hundreds of thousands of simultaneous users, but their update system is only good for maybe a few thousand people at a time. That said, I don't understand why they can't seem to explain the source of the "DDoS attacks". I don't think anyone over there has fathomed that it MIGHT JUST BE all the users repeatedly clicking their RETRY buttons that's DDoSing them.

For those who said "n00b", "whiner", "complainer": Whatever. Call me what you want, I don't give a damn what you say.
