I mean, fair suck of the sav mate. Please stop trying to so heavily dictate and gatekeep what we desire on our servers, from your perch in North America. It's quite colonial of you.
Unfortunately for both you and us, SE gets to dictate everything and they're the ones doing the gatekeeping on their terms. Otherwise NA wouldn't be in the mess it's in right now. They would have addressed the growing problems back at the end of Stormblood beyond just reshuffling worlds, which did nothing to address the rapid increase in population from the initial WoW exodus in Feb 2019 and which only got worse with the third one summer 2021.

They're highly unlikely to create special rules just for the OCE servers no matter how much the servers would stand to benefit from them.

Good that you're getting that heavy marketing campaign or does it offend you that SE had already decided it's necessary even before I brought it up?

Good that your numbers are filling nicely. It's been hard to tell from the random comments all over the forums and the last available Lucky Bancho census didn't seem to reflect much of a population increase over the prior one. I've been busy with other characters so haven't had a chance to do more than briefly check my OCE character the last couple of months to see for myself. I don't think any rational person wants the OCE data center to fail regardless of where in the world they live.

If you don't want players who don't live in OCE to be part of a public discussion in a forum open to all English speaking players regardless of where they are located, you probably should take it to an OCE only-forum somewhere.
