What is the most important reason for you when deciding what server to play on?
Mabe connection speed to the server because you PvP alot or need to have a low ping to the servers for any other reason? Do you overlook connection speed to the server and prefer to coose a more poulated server than that closest to you because you want a high population for interactions, a big community, or role play? Feel free to post your reasons. |

Re: What do look for when choosing a server?
I'd pick one that friends were on, and housing availability.

Re: What do look for when choosing a server?
When I first started, I chose Lake Superior because the people who got me into the game were there.
Then I moved to Napa because of the people there (as well as the opportunity to start the Village of Virtue... but that's another story) Then I moved to Siege when it started with darn near everyone on Napa. Again, people. Then I moved back to Napa for... people. Then I quit because the game wasn't fun, but eventually came back because my wife wanted to play with certain people who were mutual friends of ours. I came back with her and chose Catskills for the people, even though it isn't the closest server to me. Now, I play Cats and Europa depending on which friends of mine are on at the time. But while I love the people, high population doesn't do it for me. Then again, neither does low population. |

Re: What do look for when choosing a server?
I look for quality guilds and quality people. I also look for the ability to play the game in the ways I enjoy. I would rather not deal with gank fests at spawns, rare collectors that think their collection makes them uber, and more people on the shard sitting at the bank than in the dungeons.

Re: What do look for when choosing a server?
UK based here and Europa has been my main server from when I played before apart from a brief 6 months or so on Catskills, so time zone mainly followed by ping.
