do u have any idea how long its going to be under maintenance? i havent been on for 6 hours.

Same. When i get on the new BETA it says they are doing maintinance and wont let me in.

6 hours is a long time to be doing maintenance. Remember, though - this is a brand new client and everything, and it could take a pretty darn long while before everything becomes as stable as the old BD. You must also remember, like Kenny said, that each server can only take in so many people before it bugs or crashes. Upgrading a server to hold more people is a rough process in itself - chances are, the more space they add, the longer this update will take before it can become functional.
