    I would be interested to see one at least TESTED. Mostly to see if having a server in North America would alleviate some of the UI or responsiveness of the controls and the game in general. I didn't realize all the servers were actually in Japan until news of the earthquake hit.

    Sorry to burst your bubble but if it were to happen it is most likely that the server would still be located in Japan as SE doesn't have a datacenter in the US and I doubt they'd invest money in that direction for just 1, or maybe 2, temp servers.

    I'm kinda for it. Just because I'm not a fan of asking someone something and then being told they don't speak English. Or Someone asking me something and me not having any idea what they are saying.

    I guess I'm just used to all English servers. Its definitely not game breaking tho. I dealt with it in XI and ill deal with it now. =)

    My main reason for starting this thread is because there is a similar thread in the Japanese forum. Stating mainly that they are constantly hounded by foreign RMT's and is the main reason Japanese players started avoiding playing with Foreign players in FFXI. Also because of various culture differences, such as cooperation, respect, etc. I am explaining that I have no such problem on my server (or very little of it), and hope to never see it.

    when you say foreign... do you mean English? Any time I've been talked to by an RMT.. its been in broken English. I think its because English is the most common used language.
