It's nice to say "I want diversity" but what about the rest of the community?
Why do people want to play an international MMO but want to play on "NA/EU servers" only? There's plenty of NA based MMOs out there that excludes everyone but NA/EU players from playing on their servers.

What I don't get is why people think segregating players will suddenly solve all issues, all it'll do is create more issues in the long run. For example NA people tend to run on EST for raids for whatever unholy reason, which means unless you find a PST or CST based shell, it's not like you suddenly have more people to play with, you'll essentially have less people to play with.

In XI and XIV I've actually played with more European, Greek, Spanish, Chinese and Japanese players than I did American players because they tend to want to run at 5pm - 9pm est, times I'm usually at work.
