Stormrage Server upgrades

[Sword_of_Doom]

I think for the explosion of audience that they've had, which they were completely caught offguard by from all accounts, they are handling it as well as they can.

That has been said for 1.5 years now. When does that excuse end??? I remember in January or February of 2005, Mike Morhaime, President of Blizzard, all but promising that server performance would improve immediately and that he was embarrassed for the poor stability his realms were providing. I wish i had copied his exact comments because he is nothing but a corporate shill and liar. Server performance has always been awful on Stormrage. They have the money but have refused to fix. I do understand they are a business but customers are what builds their business and eventually even the most diehard optimist will give up on them.

Holding their feet to the fire is a good thing and has proven to be the only successful way of getting them to listen. Stormrage got their fix because we had a long thread on General as well as other things were done like in game petitions everyday. Constructive criticism does work. I even found it funny in January of 2005 when Everquest 2 was advertising the stability of their realms and their lag free environments which obviously was a pointed jab at Blizzard. I hope for improvement because this is a well made game. They just completely blew it on their server infrastructure.
