With the addition of these two new servers, the European customers are assured they will not miss out on the live events;

The Matrix Online team is pleased to announce the addition of two new servers: Input and Output. These two servers were created in an effort to assure our European customers would not miss out on the Live Event Team’s storyline endeavors. You will see these servers represented on the list like this: Input-Hostile-EU Output-EU As you can see, players have the choice of playing on a hostile world via Input, or an opt-in PvP world via Output. In addition, the live events schedule on both Input and Output will be adjusted to meet the needs of our European players. Players on these worlds will be able to participate in live events a day later than the events on other servers, with events targeted to occur during European prime-time play. For example, if a live event is delivered on Line Noise, it will also be delivered on Input and Output roughly 16 hours later. While the addition of Input and Output allows us to better schedule events that serve our European community, the new worlds also provides access to those players that are unable to participate in events during American prime time hours. In that way, these two new worlds are open to all, regardless of their geographic location. We will be opening these servers for your use later today, Thursday, April 14th. We hope you enjoy the addition of these new worlds and we eagerly anticipate the chance to provide our customers with greater access to our live event offerings. Cheers!

Don't you think the headline is a bit misleading? The servers aren't actually in Europe (which would be the ideal situation) but in the US and exist only to cater for people who live in a different time zone or can't make the time for the original event. This isn't even worth an announcement, whereas having REAL European servers would be. European players will be very disappointed to read this article.

Since the European servers will be time delayed for events by 16 hours I can forsee events being ruined by the news sites and people who are on the regular servers, entirely defeating the purpose of even having time delayed servers.
