I don't mind playing with French and German players, infact I do quite often, but I am not up for staying up til 4am to play with people from my Linkshell who are mostly US players and don't see why I should have to put up with 250ms of extra latency either.
I have a worldwide linkshell and can get things done any time, they are all friends and I do not want to be forcably pulled appart, SE could have something up thier sleeves for latancy (even with the internet's unreliable speed) there are things they can do for that.

FFXI had servers in Japan and no one complained, STO has one server based in US (Yes EU and US play together) no one complains.
