    This makes A LOT of sense. You should be able to tell SE where you want to play then access ONLY the NA/EU or JP servers. I've gamed online for a LONG time and I've never met anyone that has said "hey guys I'll be on later, I'm going to play with my friends in Japan" lol I mean seriously. Most people that are in NA will only play on NA servers and same with JP players, although, when Aion was in Beta Test, we had more Asian players complaining of high pings on the NA servers than anything else. You get my point though.

    servers can only handle so much traffic, thats the bottom line. you CAN NOT wave a wand and tell the servers to double capacity when its not possible. even ffxi to my knowledge has population limits. they need more servers and thats what they are doing.

    A world is made of multiple servers. They might not be able to simply add more servers to the world to increase performance/capacity, it depends on the software they're using. Replacing the servers with faster/larger hardware may not be an option. So basically, adding more worlds is the best thing they can do at the moment unless they can add more servers to the world. They should really give people free character transfers to make use of the new worlds. Even better would be if your characters were kept on a central server and you weren't locked into always playing on the same server.

    Vileguy, my beef with that is, what if you have a guild of 150 people and MOST of them want to stay where they are because they all have made friends and such in other guilds and whatnot...more world servers aren't the answer, it forces people to do things they shouldn't have to. I hate to use WoW as a reference but they hosted, at their peak, 11 million players at once....SE is reporting they only have 223,000 players, if WoW could handle a load of 11 million players, I think SE can come up with a solution that is better than "Lets make more servers and you can spread out your characters". I personally like to play on only one server.

    At Hatori_Elric, that is true and false, you can upgrade the memory and capacity of a server to be able to handle more traffic, you can pay more and get more bandwidth etc. It seems to me that SE is not wanting to spend the extra money or maybe they don't know the technology that well to get stronger servers.
