No one likes quotas but I think that is the only way to allow all players to be able to play EW

It's not possible to just buy more servers, it is not a money or willingness issue, it's just that kind of process takes months to do. Yes, they should have earlier, but that is past and we need to look to the future.

Even with afk timers, many players are now using scripts and other tools to avoid the afk timer, especially raiders who are already accostomed to using third party tools. As time goes on only more and more players will start to use these cheats to bypass the queue. It will not get better, only worse.

A time quota per account is the only way to combat afk effectively. Even a generous amount like 6 hours a day could be enough to shorten the queue by incentivizing players to log off when they don't play

I am lucky to be a NEET and can play whenever I want, but what about people who have to go to work or school and can only play in the evening when it is most conjested? EW has been really wonderful, so I hope everyone can enjoy it, even if it is only for a several hours a day
