Is queue time just a part of the normal game now?

The real problem is that SE doesnt wanna spend money on expanding the servers. This will result in people leaving the game. I honestly dont understand their way of thinking.

The problem is, at least on the NA datacenter, SE already spent money on the servers, people just wanted to be on Balmung and Gilgamesh only. They should have locked them years ago, but they didn't. The community telling everyone to transfer there to bypass char creation locks didnt help either.

2 new servers got added.

The real problem is people don't log out and exploit ways to avoid the AFK timer, thus available spots on overcrowded servers rarely come up. I'd imagine Balmung and Gilgamesh times would drop to about 20-30 mins (which is about what the queue time is on Balmung when new patches come up) if all of these people weren't staying in a constantly logged in state.
