The funny thing is, Blizz knew this would hapen, but instead of prepping their network for the massive traffic they just didn't care. They know that everything will be unstable for a few days but what are you going to do about it? Cancel?
Basically it comes down to this:
Spend money and make the process a pleasent one for their customers.
or...
Don't spend the money, shut down the forums for 3 days and keep the profit margin because they know you'll still be playing come Monday.
Pretty simple actually, just like automotive safety recalls.

Because of server latency, sometimes, despite that you know you've logged out, the server still has not officially recognized your character as being "offline". This is an even more prevalent issue in games where you have a forced "exit timer" so that you can't avoid death or unpleasant situations by simply typing </exit> to leave the game. Since there is a 20 second timer when disconnecting outside of an inn or main city, and since it also takes an extended period of time for the server to recognize that your character has logged off, it can take a couple of minutes before your character becomes accessible again.
My younger brother actually had fun with this fact not long ago. During one of Kel'Thuzad's huge lagathons, he would wait to be disconnected and then quickly log onto his other character who was stationed right beside his main. For nearly a minute, he was able to see his Paladin standing right in front of his Rogue.
thank you and lol at your brothers story

I've run the gamut. I'm getting different problems on different realms:
-some of them I login fine.
-some I get stuck "retrieving character list"
-one of them loads and then stops when the blue bar is done. I can simply alt-F4 it closed and I get no other problems in that regards.
Personally I'd much rather one being having one of the issues, heh.
On a side note, I was all giddy looking at the new interface and achievements on my working realm.
