Im locked in Europe since I used all of my changes.. and im loving it. moved there for my current guild to play w/them, besides it does not hurt to have favor 95% of the time

. People are a lot friendlier and I find a lot less 9 year olds there

I love it!!!

American servers have only one advantage and that is English-only districts. Really shame that Europe has been divided.

Naaaah, the community in Europe isn't any better.
It's however highly dependent on the time when and WHEN you play. For example, if there is holiday season in germany (i'm german) then you're bound to experience hell come true in every german district because every single spoiled brat will suddenly have the time to play for all they like.

The best times to play and then the atmosphere can be quite friendly is when most of europe is asleep and there is no major holiday. Then the community is quite friendly and allright but once one of the above conditions occurs, it's a nightmare.

This could be why I never encountered any problems - I play mainly from midnight to 6am, although not exclusively. The times when I play at say 4pm or 8pm I don't notice the atmosphere being a lot different, there are just more people.

Good point about the times - here in the US it is "summer vacation" for the kiddies. Once school starts again, and they have homework, school nights etc - it will probably get a tad more "mature"

I'm French, in French servers. There are trashtalkers, but if you are polite and kind you will generally never have trash talk. I go often when I don't find enough people for old missions in Tyria in English districts. People is generally also kind and polite.
As for build selection: there is a lot less people I think on each "State" Server (English, German, French, Italian...). PUGing is generally not difficult, but there are not so many people, and we can't afford to kick like this people or to "select" harshly the characters you want. For the build selection, there is also no selection, because most of Missions can be done with poor builds, if people follow the basics (aggro, targetting). On Hard Missions like THK you will find selection, though.
