It's been pretty good for a while now. When I first started in April, though, they were re-starting it all the time, and I never made it through one of the lowbie dungeons without it crashing. The server had a huge population, apparently it was full from almost day one. I joined, and stuck with it, because that's where my friends are. Anyway, they opened up server transfers, and a lot of people left, so it's much better now.

I don't think bandwidth is an issue. It's just the poor hardware. They've upgraded many servers to handle the huge populations. I think AT&T and some other companies provide all the bandwidth for them, so I dunno... shouldn't be any problems on that end.

I see, maybe they've should have gone with a scalable server, like the Blade by HP? That would make well for a worldwide gaming server personally. Plenty of storage and server bandwidth.
