Aether Data Center Down

[Kaedan94]

I don't buy the "Balmung and Gilgamesh are almost always maxed" excuse. The Mana Japanese server is at least as populated if not more than Aether, and it's running fine. The difference? Japanese data center vs Canadian. It's a staffing issue, most likely.

Balmung Had over 1k more characters then the next server using lodestone search. Yes Second is Japanese server and then third was Gilgamesh i believe. But a thousand. I am not sure how that works for Data center. But I am sure someone could add up the numbers. Logged into aegis for curiosity sake. There was no que when Balmung was at 800.

The numbers don't add up. But realisticly at this point this won't be fixed till its to late. They will probably look into pre 4.0. And a curious note what does staff have to do with hardware not handling load. If there is to much for the hardware it's to much.
