An interesting observation...
I must say I find it quite interesting how many more threads/posts there are in the English technical support forum, in contrast to the Japanese technical support. +1500 threads vs 4.
Either the JP servers are working perfectly fine without any problems what so ever, or the Japanese just sit back and trust this "fine" company will solve all problems, like how they all stand in queue waiting for instances, compared to us all hammering the login/enter button till we get in :)
