Like I said: Missing characters must be a very rare occurence...
Server downtime happens, nothing's perfect, I'm sure the EQ servers go down too... You can go ahead and tell blizzard to jump and have them reply "How high", but if a server starts acting up blizzard can't simply yell "Work" at it and expect a response...
Yes blizzard has a big fanbase, but MMO's are not for everyone... It's not a RTS game, it's not diablo, and (as you point out) it's much more expensive than most games, putting it out of some people's price range... Plus it came out around the same time as EQ2... They simply underestimated it's success, I s'pose...
And yes it costs a couple hundred bucks overall for a year's play... But it ends up costing something like 50 cents a day (the max monthly subscription, not counting any discounted 3/6 month plans, but not counting the price of the game itself either)...
My point of view is, I play the game so damn much anyways, if it's down for a few hours every once in awhile and I miss out on a whole, I dunno, 15 cents worth of gameplay, well boo hoo... Sure it can be irritating when I want to play and first find out the server is down, but I just find something else to do and try back later...
Oh yeah and one last thing which I highly doubt applies to you:
You didn't happen to stumble into any strange areas in the game world did you? Places with a bunch of high level monsters that just sit there taking abuse, not fighting back?
