Not entirely relevant, but if you're interested I'm sure you have the ability to Google it, which is basically what you're asking me to do anyway.

Aside from the minimal amount Storm spends on the server, arguments are intended to change the minds of other people. It is pretty evident to nearly everyone in this thread, aside from yourself, that he has posted a questionable representation of the playercount and therein lies a basis for an argument. Your negative connotation of what an argument is may be overshadowing your view of what was actually said, but there is little reason to project it on the forums.

As manager of the server, Storm is very much empowered to reason with Stefan regarding the location of the server. Just because Storm addresses the issue doesn't mean that it will be or can be moved, but when the manager approaches you as a representation for the server, you're more inclined to listen as opposed to some random player who usually has selfish reasoning. Statistics provide a good medium to reason with, and if it turns out that the majority of players on Classic are effected by the server being in Europe and it is in some way providing a detriment to the server, then there is a reason to put it back. If the issue is not addressed then you can expect nothing to happen. Again, very basic logic.
