You don't understand though, speaking FR or German, those people probably won't move, but the Japanese population will move, they are very xenophobic, so anyone who speaks Japanese will lose those friends, being on the west coast in NV, I do typically play with JPs when I'm up, and also the ping isn't as awful, but the east coast well: where the ohio meets the mississippi, that's 84% of the US population and probably where most of the US people who play this game live, if they move to an NA only server, it leaves a lot of the international servers empty. We'll never be a popular game with millions of players, why further stratify our small playerbase? Games with at least 600,000 players f2p or p2p can support servers for specific regions because they have them, this game does not have enough players and never will to separate us like that. Plus who wants to play with all US dicks all the time, even being American, the Americans tend to be the worst, usually those who didn't play FFXI and don't understand having a good gaming reputation (you could other mmos from old school days and understand too like EQ and SWG, not just XI)
