New data centers

[Driavna]

I understand that that's probably the reasoning, but it's a flawed way of actually solving that problem.

Because what happens 3 months after launch? Surprise surprise, the EU servers are a barren wasteland because SE took away 50% of the population.

I wouldn't be as worried if they could at least promise compensation for when this does occur, or a promise to merge the data-centers again.

Just a pure split is probably the laziest, and most harmful way to actually "fix" this.

IMO looks like SE plan is to allow cross duty/party finder between data-centers at some point in the future. Will be like macro servers but without merges so everyone can keep their house and names.

At least is the next logical step.
