Why does it seem like all the people who are trying to shove their overbearing carebear attitudes down peoples throats are generally retards? Look at how they type, how they seem to be mouth breathers that smack away at their keyboards so angrily. I can't help but think they are lacking some intelligence.
Hehe kinda yeah but meh That guy is a *** >_>
How old are you?

Of course we have to be respectful, etc, about what's happening, but we can't just sit here mourning all day.
There is definitely some truth to that statment. But it doesn't apply to everyone. Why do you hate Japan so much?

rannu-mannu was in such a state, he'd forgotten to pick up the new hat he'd ordered and it was far too late now to walk all the way across windhurst. "oh what a statey-watey i'm in, what a kerfulle-wuffle" he proclaimed. Just then there was a knock at the window, the round tin window frame shook and knocked quite a few petals off the flowers that was pressing against the stained glass. It was Janpa his sister and she had the biggest grin on her face... (yeah thought i'd change the mood lol)

Between FFXI and FFXIV there's probably close to 500,000+ people paying an average of $15 per month. That's close to 8 million per month they'd be losing if they chose to not charge us, which they,so far, have done.
That being said, from a business standpoint, it would make a LOT of sense to physically send the servers, or at least back up the data from all servers, ship them elsewhere, such as SE in california, either temporarily, or permanantly to get the monthly fees rolling back in. FFXIV is already one hell of a negative on their bank account, and this may possibly be the best thing that ever happened to it, if insurance covers the "losses".

As a katrina surviver i really do feel bad for Japan. even if their players do type in those silly squiggly words that make me /sh SQUIGGLES! everyday. Maybe the world is just trying to come back together. I mean it did after all break apart did it not. I think we should help to a degree but honestly... i still have to think one thing. How are we suppose to help others when america can't even help its own community? America is so *** over (yes i am american) I'm surprised we all havent fled the country yet. My best wishes and prayers to those over sea's I wish i could donate but as many ppl I don't even have a job to support myself in america. Prayers to Japan /em makes cookies and offers milk to all :D

There was never a monthly charge for FFXIV. There are around 200kish users paying for XI so that's around 2~3m they losing out on.

Being that FFXI is a multi-million dollar enterprise on a month-to-month basis, they might continue with their original estimate in order to not wound their economy anymore than it will already suffer.
I'm not getting my hopes up though.

Anything longer than a week will be devastating to the player base of both games, if this doesn't impact them enough as is. Not saying they should start up earlier despite the energy concerns, but it may destroy their remaining player base. Imo at least..
As I said, it's out of their hands, they don't really have a choice in the matter. As a lot of people say, RL > IG. That works from SE's side too.
And if the playerbase fades, I don't know. Most people are understanding of what is going on, we might lose some idiots, but when the servers are back up, I know I will be.
they could easily throw on their own generator (big one mind you) to power the servers, so they technically do have a choice in the matter.
As for the power conditions from the grid in Japan, nope.
Think not. It's out of their hands.

Well yeah XIV didnt charge b/c it wasnt finished. but it was intended to be a payed for game, which when they finish it, i'm sure they'll start charging. I'm sure 2-3m per month would still be enough to make a company want to do what's needed to get cash flow coming back in. I cant see a company that makes profit off of selling you a virtual service, deciding it's best to sit back and have it's employees not do anything for 2 months or more... got to remember that there's a GM office in california that arent working now b/c of this. It would make a LOT of sense to spend a couple hundred thousand dollars to get the 2-3m flow going again.
