And remember, they don't make the game play slow to keep their investors (stock holders), its done so you won't leave while they finish their development of their new expansion (which is where they DO make the money). Keep in mind, to keep a server running smooth you don't want more than about 50 people per zone server. SoE's servers are about the same, their maintenance of those servers are high, and they don't want you playing as much as you think, they just want you to come back tomorrow =). The more you play, the longer you play, the higher their costs the more servers they have to put up to keep load down. SoE wants players that play 1-2 hours per day, every day, not those of you that exp grinds 50% of the day.
