I choose Europe server, but if it is not possible for us to be well-protected in Europe, then i guess we should stick to usa..
We can never protect us 100%, USA or Europe both will get DDoS attacks.
@ Topic
I would like to point out market again. Back then when we had EU servers people always was pk'ng (Im not saying people didn't use market). There was full of people in Devias (now you see barely someone in there), stadium was full of Pk'ers and LT sometimes. It was really fun when Guild mate called you and asked for your help to kill other guild/team who Pwned in Devias Gate for example(Im sure many of you remeber those times. DIVINITY had the devias Gate and someone wanted to kill us etc). Now there is only stadium Pk, you die, respawn and fight.. In my point there is no fun, the fun is gone. Think about this server future, we need new players.
I will Quote what RESiSTANT posted above
It's about distance, not internet connection. PH will always have bad ping. If it's in USA ~250ms, if it's in EU 300. Still the same comfort because where is 250 there is 300 as well comparing to 50ms I have to EU server (Pegasus) right now which grants me smooth gameplay.
Right now, 12:21AM players online

Back then we had at least 1 server full at this time. No hard feelings who voted for USA, but i vote for that what is best for my server and the people.
