A possible solution(?) for "segregating the community"

[Xerius]

I would settle for them just using duplicate server names for regional servers.

i.e.
Ridill [jp] Ridill[us] Ridill[eu]
Masamune [jp] Masamune [us] Masamune [eu]
Durandal [jp] Durandal [us] Durandal [eu]

etc...

If people are going to be moving for better latency I'd rather keep my server name and lose as little friends as possible.

This will be a great idea assuming that the number of players increases dramatically, Right now I don't think that content wise, it would be a good idea to triple the number of servers just because it'll make multi-player content that much more difficult. Trying to find parties as it is right now can be difficult.
