    Seriously why would we want a separation servers? 100% JP will go to JP servers based on thier timezone, no language barrier, etc etc and the pro list goes on. i for one would like a EU server because its near my timezone.
    i seriously cant understand the *Logic* of "why it is a bad thing"?

    my house is in rebuilding stage. this house is very small and in unpopular area.
    the roof, floors, plumbing, and gas are all broke.
    my landlord fired the original crew. for not completing the job on time
    the new crew comes in and makes all kinds of promises, and shows me pics.
    now for next year i have to wait for them to finish the job.
    should I move to a more popular, bigger house rent it for same price?
    or stay in the part of my house that is not being rebuilt. but still pay same rent as others.

    The problem with this is likely cost and the fact that there will be some servers rammed beyond belief, and some where you have like 5 people (exaggeration but you know what I mean).

    SE are trying to encourage people mixing from around the world, and the idea of having various players coming on at different times of the day is nice and generally works (and the servers are therefore continually in use - which is what SE probably wants).

    Bringing in regional segregation just because some groups are too narrow-minded/arrogant/inflexible to share the same space with other groups that are different to them (for whatever reason) is a poor idea in my view.

    I'm not denying that some servers probably currently have low populations for some languages which can make things difficult. SE could try fixing this by allowing limited world transfers...but I can see even this being open to abuse.

    People blame the JP contingent a lot, but there are plenty of EU and NA players who keep asking for local servers so they don't have to attempt to communicate/player with people "different" to them.

    SE could help matters by improving the in-game auto-translate a lot more so you can actually have appropriate conversations with people.
