Well lets analyze, we are talking about a difference in service dependability. I've lived and travel to Texas. It's a nice place to visit, but technology wise and dependability Cali beats it hands down. It's only logical to place it somewhere were it's dependable and services are more reliable net wise. Also they might be doing so to force players to change servers and balance it out in the long run from what I can see.
