			When archeage launched paying players had about a 1 to 1 1/2 hour q and f2p where at 3 to 4 for the first couple weeks after that it settled down and patrons had no q and f2p was really short. then the game was destroyed and no q's for anyone

I've played on the PTR, I really liked it. How long will these long wait times last? I came home from school, I was expecting maybe 5 minutes or so... But... What.. I can't...

			It's something they are actively working at addressing, that's why they have opened up some new servers for the time being. I suggest moving over to Jabbit - II and try playing over there. Should be less lag and shorter wait times.

 A honest reply for me for once, just go play something else for a week or 2 , maybe a month. There are a bunch of other excellent F2P titles out there that work. Check back on the forums every few days see if the games working, and when it is , give it a try if you still want to.
 
 Solid advice from an old MMO'er...

			Who knows, but I expect this to be all cleared up by next week or so. I know it's not the best answer for me to come up with, but I've dealt with enough mmorpg releases to know when things has calm down.

			About 1 to 1.5 hours, maybe a bit longer, definitely won't take almost 5 hours.

I don't think that's true.

Let me put it this way on the 'accuracy' of those wait times. I've had it say that the expected time is less than a minute with a thousand people still in queue and other times where it tells me an hour with 20 people. It has absolutely no idea how long it will really take. Last night it said about five hours and it took an hour and a half or so. Still a stupid long time, and nearly intolerable, but it doesn't take as long as it says on the box. (Or at least that's been my experience so far.)
 
The part that's frustrating is that you can wait through the queue and still end up in the login loop, which is basically infuriating to the point of blind rage at times.
