Regarding Reports on Recent Connection Problems with the NA Data Center

[ElasmoFan]

I would just look to put in that I've been having the same issue with Cox in CA. I do ok earlier in the day on my days off then during prime time, it becomes borderline unplayable. It's been going on for quite a while now and it's frustrating because that's the only time I can play consistently. With the new patch around the corner and me trying to prepare for it, it's frustrating that this is just up in the air and nothing can be done about it because everyone's just pointing fingers at each other. I don't want to have to unsubscribe but I'm almost going on a full sub with this issue and I may not have a choice. I don't like the idea of missing out on things, especially with a patch coming that my friends and other players will be able to participate in. It completely kills my drive for wanting to play the game and makes it hard for me to even want to come back if I unsubscribe.

Edit: Seems like it's been shown several times that the issue isn't with Cox and there isn't anything they can even do about it, so at this point it's SE's responsibility. I would hope this is a high priority and not just a small handful of people who can't play but since it's small, who cares about them situation. Would hate to think we're low priority or getting snubbed just because it's not a major number of people having this happen to them.

Edit2: There's also a reddit full of people now that are talking about having this problem. I honestly worry this isn't something that'll even get fixed and we'll just be stuck with them saying there's nothing to do about it or continuing to point fingers or going unresponsive. I would hate to end up having to use a VPN when apparent that doesn't even work well with this problem. I really enjoy this game and love the people and friends I've made but I just can't deal with how bad it gets on a long term. I understand there are people who have to deal with it who are over seas are far from the node or something but being where we are and seeing what's causing the problem, I don't feel like it's worth going through if they're unresponsive or don't attempt to fix the issue. I don't want to be negative about this, honestly. I just am disappointed and frustrated.
