So if they credited you the $0.19 would you feel better? That’s what 9 hours at $15 a month works out to. 19 cents. Are you actually throwing this big a fit over 19 cents? That’s already rounded up by the way.

Those free to play games might cost nothing, but they still got lts of people bringing in loads and loads of money. Otherwise they wouldn’t even exist in the first place, I’m willing to bet some of those free games even make more money than WoW does.
Also WoW announces their downtimes ahead and they’re part of the agreement you accept when buying into the game. There’s no way to maintain a game like that without downtime. Especially around new expansion launches when it gets more hectic.
Also, just complaining how they “can’t get maintenance done in less than 9 hours” makes me believe you have absolutely no clue how insane the infrastructure behind these kind of games are. Especially those that have been running for nearly 20 years.

I mean, why not?
People are paying for it, so they clearly enjoy it?

The issue could be at least mitigated if they allowed people to set their own servers independent of World of Warcraft’s own servers.

How much is WoW nowadays? It was $15/mo when I played.
That’s about 2 cents an hour. If you really need your 18 cents back, I’d be willing to venmo it to you.
