A European datacenter!

[Rillifane]

im not sure if ur serious, number of hops matters, but distance from one hop to the other also matters...

No where did i say it didn't matter, my point was that the shorter distance in miles/km is not an automatic magical fix to the problem, if you get sent through enough hops it can make your ping WORSE than having to travel a longer distance with fewer hops.

so get a good datacenter in EU dont get a shitty one?

The data centre being good won't matter its the >ISPs< that will handle the traffic (namely yours and the ones yours have contracts with to handle data that gets sent to their country outside of yours).

So in reply to the comment you just said about dont get "shitty ones" i give you back what you just said.

really, not sure if ur trolling or just thinking ur speaking with someone that has no clue about networking.
