It still kills me that people that have no clue how expensive the hardware behind the game costs say "just buy new servers and shut them down when not needed". Something to handle this kind of concurrent database transactions runs no less than $30,000 US. That's just the server, not any backplanes, racks, power strips, switches, nics etc.. All that and you're running at MINIMUM $50k a pop for a new "world". In the long run if they were 300% sure those servers would be needed and justified there would be no issues just standing up another 80 worlds and waiting to regain the costs. However with any service that is completely dependent on subscription it will wax and wain and eventually dwindle into nothing.

Tell you what if you're willing to foot the bill for well over the worlds average household income so you can have another server send them a check.
