Let's take a reality check.
First off RightAboutNow:
Let's say they had 5 people working on the mails alone. They get(roughly) a 100 mails from pissed off customers. That leaves 20 mails to solve in a day. This is a positive/negative comment since they probably don't have the resources to have 5 people 24/7 just looking at mails and they probably get around 500 mails a day.
You do the math, if they don't solve your problem in 5 minutes it might, just -might- be because they have a truckload of angry mails inline to solve first.
Server problems:
No system is a 100% safe. Just take a look at the US powergrid problem a while back. Same thing in France, in Finland we had a citywide powerout as well. I don't think they sit at GOA, notice that the servers are down and then go "Oh well, i'll just finish this bun and coffee, go have a nooner with the missus and then think about that while 10.000 players are filling the mailbox again.
Subpage problems:
What can i say? When you get even a minor clitch in the system and then get it online again, people rush in like a bunch of squirrels on a tipped over peanut-truck. And pop goes the server...again. As said above, no system is 100% safe. Even Barrysworld has been known to be unavailable because there's too many users browsing it.
All in all:
GOA are doing work, like the rest of the working community, every day. They have patches to translate, subpages, RightNow mails and a whole lot of other stuff going on that we have no idea about. It's like building a house, you can't expect everything to go smoothly all the time, sometimes it rains, and you sure as heck can't expect the house to be complete in one afternoon.
Just cut 'em some slack, all i'm saying.
Now bring the flames.
