Why Is Dynamis Dead

[TaleraRistain]

You've just proven my point.
The move to Crystal didn't result in a two-way migration, with some moving back from Crystal and some moving TO Crystal, in order to keep friendship groups together, as would have happened anywhere else in the world.
Instead, everyone just moved off Crystal because Crystal was deemed the unpopular datacenter.

There shouldn't be such a thing as an unpopular server or datacenter, that's the cause of all of these congestion issues and 'dead' servers.

And again, NA is mostly US players, and the issue here is trends which the majority are responsible for.

It was less it was unpopular and more that SE just uprooted people from the DC they had always been on and people didn't like that. They went back to the DC they had personally chosen and to the connections they had with that DC. And NA players shouldn't be faulted for being unhappy to be forcibly removed from the place they had chosen to be.

ALL the servers on Crystal are congested right now. Even Aether isn't that bad currently. Obviously it's not unpopular. It is considered the RP server so maybe that's why there isn't as much high-end focus. Aether is the raiding DC. Not sure where Primal sits. DCs, at least NA DCs, take on their own identity and ways of doing things and people drift to the ones that suit their interests the most.

You just keep on supporting my exact point.

Crystal is the RP data center.
Aether is the raiding datacenter.
Primal is the 'other' datacenter.

WHY?

They're all just datacenters. Nobody else has this problem. Stop giving your datacenters identities and maybe you won't be so offended when you get moved to another one.

Citation needed.

Have you seen the state of JP DCs? The ones where Mana has about 150 PFs in the evening and every other DC is lucky to go over 30? The ones where a dedicated "non-JP" DC exists? The ones where a newly reorganized DC is struggling to get off the ground and attracts much the same ire that Dynamis does?

JP also has this same situation, hell they even have Tonberry, where they push all the non-japanese to play.

Well you're full of it because like others have pointed out, JP gives their data centers identities as well and at least we don't try to force all of a group onto one datacenter. But if that's what JP wants to do, then JP can do whatever they want with their datacenters. Same as we on NA can with ours.
