Any chance we can get a rough ETA for future shutdowns?

We appreciate what the GMs do, but "Server shutdown in 10m" isn't the most satisfying message in any situation. Any chance we can get a rough ETA, especially for out-of-the-blue 10m warning shutdowns? Perhaps *some* sort of verbose message with a 1/2 sentence of details? Even if the ETA is really rough. No one's sure if it's 10 minutes or 10 hours.

We're all in our 30s/40s now with limited time. I'm sure a large majority would greatly appreciate this.

You'll take you're 100% free server with no downtime warnings and you'll like it!

If a server goes down and it screws you over and causes you to die because you're deep in some dungeon like HS the staff will usually rez you. Otherwise 10+ minutes of warning is plenty of time to walk someplace to camp if you're in an otherwise unsafe place.

Quit whining
