The launch rush always has a limited duration. Once it's done people start logging in less, causing servers to have less concurrent population.

Developers that cave into the demand for more servers *always* find themselves with underpopulated ghost towns afterwards.

It's simply inevitable, as the launch rush never lasts forever.
So what happens when the overall population continues to go up over time? Honest question. Do they wait and gradually increase servers, or is there a way to increase existing server capacity?
