That's why I love auto translate dictionary. No other mmo(that I know of) has that. Whats the point in having it if your just going to make servers regional. It allows you to talk to those people who you can't speak with. I never had any problems in FFXI with JPONRY nor on this game.

Not to mention he said a racist statement, and then asked people not to be racist.

Thats why we have US prime time, jp prime time, EU prime time, exc.... Those people that wan't to play with US just play during the prime time. Can't get on US prime time... Play on EU prime time, they speak English.

Don't really think I'm being racist there. American isn't a race.... sorry to say. ANYWAYS BACK ON TOPIC.

The reason for international servers, I thought, was to keep a healthy playerbase at all timezones.

Why get rid of them and leave partying nearly impossible at dead hours once 2.0 hits?

Do you really think a german that buys the game for the PS3 would want to play with JAP/US? Of course not. Thats one of the reasons why WoW is so popular, the ability to choose whether you want to play with fellow german speaking players or some other guys. It makes the game so much easier.

Considering one of my LS friends is German, yeah, I would say they would. He actually doesn't play with Germans. Cross servers are good.

Let's not forget how fun auto-translate is. Brings out the 13 year old in everyone.

"There's only two things in this world that I cannot stand, intollerance of other people's cultures and the Dutch!"

The only advantage would be maintenance scheduled during downtime for each region instead of having to take servers down during one region or another's primary play time. But the disadvantages are numerous.
