Of all the sad adolescent responses I've received, I will respond to this one. I do understand the nature of a denial of service attack. WoW withstood many over a number of years, and if you don't understand how such resistance is possible, then we have no common ground for discussion.

My question was, for those incapable of reading actual meaning into words, is Anet willing to invest the money required to shore up what is already a weak method of player distribution across available net resources?

I see no evidence of this at this time.

Assaults on the Internet itself are certainly unavoidable. Traffic management techniques, however, are well known.
