I've already said all I can. You guys have fun refusing to give ground to each others ideas.
Now where's that Unsubscribe button...
Not Communism. Dictatorship. Yes, in case you haven't notice, you can play the game only because SE allows you to. They can refuse to provide you service anytime they want, for whatever reason.

The reality is, at least it appears that way, neighborhoods scale very poorly and SE has great difficulty increasing the number of them.

So either,

a) they buy new servers costing millions (something they have stated in the LIVE letter as a last resort) or
b) instance it all and use the neighborhoods for something else.
