This is frustrating...in the past I missed things/events so now I read the patch notes even when I don't have time to play.
Last week I read the notes as usual (nothing special for me though), and today when I tried to log in I can't connect to server.
Come check the forums to see if the server is down, and realized that Taiwan IPs are now block! Oh, -_-, that happens to be where I am...
The biggest problem I have is WHY do it all a sudden? For EU at least they have time to plan for the block, but why no prior notice in the patch notes? why catch people by surprise? This is very very rude just to begin with. Plus I won't be playing twRO anyway...the reason I still play iRO is because all the efforts I made in iRO...the characters, the party, the friends...
I don't even get to say good bye to my main character. This is heart breaking. If you are going to block regional IP you should at least give us time to handle our quitting the game affairs, not do everything just overnight. It feels like I have my account stolen all a sudden.
