    Well with the 90k errors, it would have to happen to everyone at the same time for it to be an issue with the server wouldn't it? If it is only a small minority, it is more likely to be something with their ISP, especially if they are in the US because US ISP's are trash. That being said, you do have a point in not ruling out a problem on SE end; you just can't rule out something on the ISP side either.

    ??? If I never had a 90k in years of playing before Endwalker launch, and since then have had a ton... doesn't it stand to reason that the issue is due to the server overload?

    No, actually.

    If everyone gets a 90k at the same time, it definitely means the issue is on the server side. (This actually happened to Primal only a few days ago -- the bulk of the instance servers crashed all at once, so everyone in a duty at the time across the datacenter got 90k'd simultaneously. And then we were stuck in limbo for two hours.)

    But 90k's happening that aren't simultaneous and universal doesn't rule out the possibility of it being a server-side issue. To use mathematical logic statements, "If A then B" doesn't necessarily imply "If not A then not B". Or, to put it another way "absence of proof is not proof of absence."

    I personally suspect the 90k issue is caused by a variety of things, and some may be player-side and some may be server-side, so anyone trying to track down a single cause for 90k's is going to be frustrated and disappointed.

    I aim to make my posts engaging and entertaining, even when you might not agree with me. And failing that, I'll just be very, VERY wordy.
