To the people constantly telling everyone to "stop complaining" and "wait and see", could you kindly just leave us be?

Some of you people have WAY too much faith in SE, to the point it's worrying. They make mistakes. They've made plenty in the past, and they're about to make one now. Voicing our concern with this is perfectly reasonable. They made a silly decision, and hopefully if the negative response is big enough they'll rethink it and move their servers to a central location in time where everyone can be happy.

Since when did waiting and pretending everything would just work out ever lead to anything good? Criticism is what pushes things forward, not sugarcoating and white knighting. We have horrendous balance issues to the point where tanks and healers couldn't get a new job for 4.0 because everyone wanted to pretend things are fine. Just think about that for a second.

I just love it when people on the forums claim to know more about big decisions like this then the people who actually work for SE and are in charge of this stuff. Smacks a bit of arrogance. Just my 2 cents.

You're speaking as if you can somehow sway some change, and that's simply being unrealistic, there is no way you or anyone change this, no matter what.
The only ones pretending are the ones that think they can somehow change SE's minds on what was a decision made last year with many months of logistics and a lot of money behind it.

You can do it through cmd if I recall. Or just wait a few more hours. Reddit will inevitably have the exact location posted with minutes of the servers going live.

If you're in Windows 10, in the Cortana box, type CMD. You'll see the option to bring up the command box.

When it comes up, type ping neolobby02.ffxiv.com

Your average MS is your ping.
