They are going to have to cut resources and stop the patches we are getting now to focus on this one issue, then the game will have to be down for some time to implement and test everything. People complain about 24 hr main. It is not worth it to start over this late in the game when the game is this successful. They would rather work on the issues slowly, fixing what they can, while pumping out content to keep people subbed and attract new players.

Major overhauls take time, money, and lots of planning that they would rather invest in new expansions. When the system cant handle the game they will create a new MMO.
