GMS Server Status Discussion 2012-01

We already know that a large part of what they did in those upgrades was rearrange the ratio of channels to servers in favor of making less machines handle more servers.
Whether it was because they upgraded those boxes to be beefier and consolidated, or whether they just were trying to save money by cramming as much on to as little as possible we'll never know, but it definitely does not seem to have been the choice to improve overall stability.

That doesn't make much sense. We all know they have the money to invest in better servers, and would prob bring in much more profit to do so.. Because i'm sure people are buying nx in this pineappleed up week? because im sure as hell not buying nx til I can play without massive lag spikes and crashes.. Then again this comes from the servers that just accepts whatever packets you throw at it..
