if you are not from Asia or other underserved regions, DON'T SKIP THIS. I still need your support in this 😇

I am writing to draw your attention to a critical issue: the lack of suitable servers in the Middle East, Asia, and other regions. This scarcity has resulted in severe ping suffer, significantly impacting the online experiences of thousands of users.

The current server infrastructure limitations in these areas have created a digital divide, hindering progress, innovation. I urge you to join us in addressing this challenge and extending support to these underserved regions.

The gravity of this situation can be summarized as follows:

  • Digital Inequality: The lack of suitable servers creates a significant digital divide, hindering access to quality online experiences and impeding social and economic development.
  • Impaired Connectivity: High ping suffer and slow connections disrupt businesses, communication channels, and essential digital services, stalling innovation and economic progress.
  • Insufficient server support: Insufficient Middle East server infrastructure hinders game expansion and popularity in unsupported regions, limiting accessibility and growth.

Warm regards,

When you look at suitable places in the Middle East where Jagex could rent servers, there are regulatory challenges in a fair amount of the more suitable places they can host. For the Middle East, my employer relied on hosts in Seychelles, after servers were taken offline by Saudi Arabia and the UAE.

I'm fairly certain Jagex knows the danger of hosting there, and while it would be nice, I doubt it will happen.

I believe that Israel could be a good choice or Turkey. Ik since politics has limited number of options, But this shouldn't mean it is impossible.

This is won't be an issue if we talk about India/Austarila/China/Japan Issue ofc

Hyderabad would be a decent spot as well I would imagine.

I mean, I doubt that there are many players in the Middle East, feels like I am the only one to be honest

you doubt it cause you never asked about it.
believe it or not, there are many players in Middle East i contact with in weekly basis.

#

none of them satisfied about the ping issue.

Im from middle-east and that is why im focused on this matter. nevertheless, i do have mentioned that middle east is not the only region. South Afira and North Afria + Asia Center and West are also sites that should be recognized by Jagex Team and work on it.

I am with you on that, Idk I guess I'm jsut not social enough to know the people who play in the Middle East, and obviously having ME servers would be an amazing feat for the players, but I don't know if Jagex deems it worthwhile to invest in it, I know that many other games like Overwatch and counter Strike do host servers in Bahrain and UAE. hopefully one day we get a server full of arabs and people who live around the middle east.
