What about fixing your servers?

[Lynart]

Because the servers aren't broken, they are just at max capacity for logging in? This is normal for most expansions in any popular online games. Once people complete SB, max out most of their mains and such things will go back to normal...

Just because everyone else does something doesn't mean it is okay.

I have the privilege of working with server scaling technology and can confidently say whatever S.E. is doing to alleviate server congestion is likely due to both poorly written backend code that does not allow scaling on the fly, and are refusing to transfer resources to increase the stability of their service.

I understand that everyone thinks "hey this is normal" due to both ignorance and repeated experiences with MMORPGs (I was part of that crowd before too). But really, the only reason this is happening is because many are willing to pay for them for a ***ty launch.

I, however, am not.
