I may be in the minority here complaining about it, especially because I'm from Australia so we would get it the worst in comparison to the majority of users.

I know we will never get true oceanic servers, and I don't think we should because we would have a lot smaller pool of players.

That being said, why are the servers hosted in Canada? For me I get 280 ping MINIMUM because of this, and it always spikes me up way higher. The lowest I can get my ping to is 230-240 using ping reduction programs. Problem is, they spike too at times and it's very frustrating - I would say I average 250 ping majority of the time.

I'm not sure how it is for other NA players, but I really wish the servers would get moved.

Knowing we will never get oceanic servers, I would highly suggest moving them to the same area the NA WoW servers are hosted (I think they are in Los Angeles?) because this would help us (again, the minority) out severely. I would have 180 ping to that location and would solve all my issues (this is more than playable for an Aussie when it comes to MMOs).

How much would it effect in a positive or negative way to the rest of the NA server players? I'm not sure - only square would really know that but I really don't think where they are currently hosted is good for anyone, and that includes the majority but that's just my opinion.
