I wasn't on when the server crashed so idk, but I do know that balmung is straining (raiding on server reset night was, and probably still is, a nightmare), I'm just giving a personal side to this discussion. Honestly, I think SE needs to figure out how to stabilize their server tech more than anything. The way they talk about it makes it sound like their servers and code are held together with spit and dreams. They blame the lack of features that other games are able to handle easily on how flimsy their servers are structured, and that's what's making me think this would be just a bandaid solution that at best would be delaying the issue from popping up again
