Can we please stop destroying Aether DC with party finder? The lag is bad

I don't get it, you are not from Aether but want people to leave Aether so you can play on Aether? Is this yet another forum alt? You are free to play on primal.

No. I want people who are on Primal to stay on Primal so that there are actually parties forming on Primal.

We tried sticking around, for the first few months, with our half static. Then it became harder and harder to fill out a party in a timely manner on Primal.... because anyone willing to join a PF for raiding went to Aether for that.

It got to the point of, "If you can't beat em, join em."

I think if SE forced any given party to have the party leader be a member of the local data center it might solve the issue. People could still move to a data center to be with a static that way, but PF groups would need to have at least one member local to function.

Edit: lolol definitely not a Titanman alt, I'm usually one of the positive rays of sunshine in comparison around here

So .. this has nothing to do with Aether ping.

Guess the first resonse was right, nothing to do with ping LMAOOOO

I see my prediction for Aether in Dawntrail is already starting to occur. I wish yall luck with log in times at launch. O7

This isn't gonna change without Square's intervention at this point or shutting off cross-DC. It's just too ingrained in the community now because, for some reason, people think labeling data centers is cool.

Lorelai, Yoshi P has been apparently heard on interviews or LL that he's fine with Mana being the designated raiding DC. So having Aether as the NA one, looks to be their goal.

Then I guess this thread is ultimately pointless? Ultimately it doesn't bother me, I won't be sitting in an hour long queue regardless.

We have the same issue on Chaos, Chaos players goes to Light for PF, Chaos PF is 90% (e...)RP venues
Asking people to stop moving is.... I have no words for that
Merge both DC PFs, or merge both DC

Most still stay remain on chaos. There are only a few cases where going to light helps. Chaos might be a bit more emtpy, but its not inactive. For all the EW extremes i had no struggles finding PFs, or getting one to fill in a reasonable time (15mins). Even the unreal is well doable on chaos. And close to the release of savages, even they are easily filled.

Sure, 90% might be RP (i blatantly ignore those as i always filter category anyway). But i wouldnt be surprised if light also has that, but its just burried behind the list of non RP PFs.

Light just has more people, which means more PFs.
