That's kind of selfish.

You don't even seem to care whether or not the OP meets the minimum or recommended system requirements. If he does, then either SE needs to update that or they need to consider doing something about it.

It's not like it hurts to just ask SE to consider doing something about it; They can either think of a solution or ignore the request if they don't think it's worth looking into.

PS: I don't have any issues with lag in that area, but I have the ability to empathize with others.
Well, my point was, theres nothing SE can really do to fix it other than the options they already give you. You can set the number of shown players to a certain limit (sys config, other settings, display limits), beyond that, while you may meet the minimum specs required, you may not be able to play in heavily populated areas well. SE already has moved the minimum specs up.

I have friends who play on toasters, I sympathize with them, but MMO's are, in general, CPU heavy programs, and a lot of people, while havent decent video cards, have not so great CPUs for the task of showing many chars on screen. Its just the way it works.
