Because all the redditors decided to join the same DC as the RPers, thus causing the 2 most populated servers (who frequently have a max number of live connections active) to exist on the same DC, thus dragging all the other servers down with them as they continue to flood the market with bodies.

To alleviate this issue that the playerbase created, Gilgamesh and Balmung would have to be 100% closed off to all new creations and inbound server transfers, while SE allows free outbound server transfers to the 5 least populated servers. Another solution would be to move either Gilagmesh or Balmung's entire population to the Primal DC, freeing up resources in Aether.
