Unlock Aether NOW

[Jeeqbit]

They need a lot of these machines for each server, because several areas are on each machine. Areas include locations you go to only once for a quest, so that is a lot of machines. Maybe it is hard to get that many of the same machine in one go or maybe the specifications are high and more competitive than what we would think, but it is hard for us to understand it when we could buy one on amazon or rent one easily.

Instead of buying new servers why is the game punishing players by locking up the servers? All of Aether is now congested, which means no one can make new characters on or even transfer to Aether.

The players have given you so much money. Why don't you just buy new servers? Silicon shortage is an excuse when you can easily find a lot of servers on Amazon:

All you need to do is to buy the servers and ship it to the data center then connect them to a power supply. Seriously how hard is that? Instead we're punished as players. We only need 4 or 5 more servers to alleviate the congestion. That's like $3000 including shipping. The game makes like millions of dollars. This is a drop in the ocean. We need to demand them to buy new servers on Amazon and unlock Aether NOW.

Go read Yoship's statement.
If you are not working in the field of networking, get off your high house because server is never plug N play.

This is the same person who thinks 1 is prime, Japan only has one data center, and November is part of winter.

^This!, if OP is trolling then its not working, because she keeps doing it, I'd be more shocked if OP is serious, coz that speaks volume in OP's current education and lack of it

A person who is capable of trolling is actually educated. People like Venandi are probably constantly laughing at anyone who takes them seriously. Thinking that they lack education is underestimating them and they want you to do just that. They wouldn't be trying to appear like an idiot if they didn't want you to think that.

It also arguably requires a decent understanding of human behaviour and psychology. Knowing what buttons to press and so on. Granted, large segments of the FFXIV community do not appear to be particularly difficult to rile up but the point stands, I think.

I'd also note that more than a few supposed 'trolls' are, in fact, likely just regular players who recognised that even if they make legitimate threads then the same posters eager to cry foul about 'trolling' will show up to dismantle any and all suggestions made towards the game.

It's quite fascinating, really - I wonder if anybody else has noticed a pattern where some of the same individuals constantly keeping threads such as this one active just so happen to be amongst those who rush to shoot down constructive threads as well?

If people are serious about wanting to clean up this forum then I think they need to stop responding to what they claim are 'troll threads' and avoid stifling constructive threads.

Going with dumb because they also stated all you have to do is "but the servers, ship it and then plug in the power supply." Like ... that's not how ANY of this works. Not even a computer is just "buy and plug in the power." You actually need peripherals and network and software and ... well you get the idea.

pretty sure ANY reasonable multinational company isnt going to trust something they got out of the back of a moving van for... 600 dollars.
