Increase Maintenance Back to 2x a Week

I suggest that NCSoft increase the server maintenance back to twice a week. The lag on certain things such as Rikti mothership raids and Rikti zone invasions reach the point of ludicrousness after the server has been up for more than three days or so. I ran an impromptu Rikti mothership raid last night on Champion, and the power lag was so horrid that it literally took over a full minute for a power to activate. When I normally run Rikti mothership raids on Thursday nights, the power lag is there, but minimal. Whenever I run impromptu Rikti mothership raids, or join a Rikti zone invasion group, after Sunday or so, the lag increases exponentially. Running a second server maintenance each week would alleviate a lot of this.

Uh...would it?
Why, exactly?

Because it's been my experience that the longer the server has gone without maintenance, the greater the lag is while doing a Rikti mothership raid or Rikti zone invasion.

...I'm no expert, but I'm pretty sure that maintenance has nothing to do with that side of things.
It's much more likely that you find the most lag on days where more people can show up, and thus there are more powers and suchnot going off and, ergo, making more lag. And stuff like capes/auras etc.

Or maybe it's your rig? Because whenever I've run MS raids and suchnot, while theres been slight lag it's never been crippling.
And hell, after the EU servers got physically moved to the US, I don't even get lag on Lag Hill of the ITF anymore. I...dunno what that proves, actually, but it might not be the servers fault
