When are the server side lag issues going to actually be addressed?

I experienced a lot of lag early last week and towards the weekend it was a little better. It was unplayable for 3-4 days, but then it improved. Today, however, I got lag again to the point that I couldn't complete a dungeon. It lags, freezes, then fast forwards, until instead of fast forwarding it just disconnects me. It's really inconsistent. Even during peak hours in the weekend it works fine sometimes and not other times. Hopefully they address this soon. It's so disappointing when you are running a dungeon and all of the sudden can't complete it. I feel bad for abandoning my party.

I'm really starting to think that SE wants to get a grip on how many people are going to subscribe before doing anything that remotely resembles a hardware or infrastructure upgrade. I played FFXI with severs in Japan (I'm in Louisiana) and didn't have the kind of crazy lag I see every afternoon. I think this sis clearly an issue of them stretching their resources to the limit. Server transfers, infrastructure upgrades, all coming after people have to subscribe or cancel. It's about the numbers.

Funny, because a ton of people can't even subscribe because of 401 and 601 errors.

So far I hold SE is pretty low regards.

What it really seems like to me is that they are trying to get customers to leave so the amount of players on the servers better fits the amount of players they originally planned to be using the service. So instead of upgrading to meet the demand............................
