i made a very long post, read it thru, and decided to just say this idea sucks and its not worth the work at all. when we have a WORKING emu (imo none of the emus is complete, runuo in the lead ofcourse) then maybe one would think of this idea. possibly. like splitting up load over facets or something. maps mebbe.
Atm RunUO looks like it could run the biggest servers EVER, so ill just be very happy with that thank you.
still i doubt those bogged down kazaa junkies would be able to host shards with any users at all so why throw them in the server pool.
hmmm now the post got long again... damnit.
oh and netsplits sucks, and last time i checked uo has a bigger integrity need then a text-chat application.
