They literally stated they were making offers, this is the definition of "trying".

Can you show me this statement,I did know see it. Not say it did not take place .

Additional Worlds & Data Centers

A fundamental solution to congestion is an increase in World servers, as well as the addition of data centers. As we have already announced, we are currently in the final stages of preparing our new Oceania data center. At the same time, we have been moving forward with plans to expand even further─putting wheels into motion in the form of approving budgets, securing funding, and purchasing equipment. We intended to assess user numbers and planned content after the release of 6.0, and then work to have new servers or data centers prepared for 7.0.

The current situation, however, has compelled us to reevaluate this timeline and determine if it is possible to speed up the process. There are, however, two obstacles that stand in our way.

Problem 1: Insufficient Servers Due to Semiconductor Shortage
The COVID-19 pandemic has seen an extreme drop in semiconductor production in factories across the globe. This, coupled with an increase in demand for electronics due to more people working at home, has resulted in an international shortage of semiconductors that, in turn, has resulted in a prolonged delay in the delivery of the servers we ordered for our data centers.

We have even looked into investing more than market value to speed up delivery, but to no avail. We are not giving up, however, and are in continued talks with vendors from around the world to find a timely solution to this problem.

There's alot of people on the forums claiming they can't play or haven't played and they have 90 characters like 75% of the time. At this point, people just want attention, not even to the issues but to themselves. I would be happier to see these people unsubbed immediately and moderators directing all traffic to one or two threads. The fact they haven't already done this is a miracle and alittle annoying.

Agreed, its not like we cant see their characters on their profile either if necessery, ignoring their "main" on display".
I understand that they want to play, we all do. But those at lvl 90 why? ure far ahead than a large amount of ppl which cannot play.

se literally explained why they cant just "throw money at it" aswell as offering to pay higher than msrp to get parts to upgrade the servers soo your just complaining to complain at this point

[SamsaraTrickstar]

This you? Yeah, you can take a backseat.

Ye this is me. Nice to meet you. I take the front if you don't mind

Thanks Sherlock, but that wasnt my point.

Ill also do a small edit since ure probably going to try comparing Samsung & Apple with SE again:

Here's the deal on and off we all mostly pay the same to play, some of us have lvl 90s and finished the story, while some like you seem to be progressing in a decent manner.
Others literally CANT or even HAVENT played since the expansion released earlier this month, and some of us who have already finished the story and such act like they havent been able to play AT ALL.

people can disagree with me and thats fine, i just find it rather hypocritical when they act the same way as those who havent and it rubs me off the wrong way /shrug
If you have lvl 90 characters you have PLAYED the game.
