Hyperion announced the market issues turned out to be only delays, but would that mean the server is being jammed with the overwhelming amount of newcomers? Will this last for long/will a solution be brought up?
Personally it brought me troubles already, such as map delays ("freeze" on the screen, as in not graphically, but in terms of server response).
It would be great to hear a GM's opinion about this!
And as for players willing to, discuss!
(My opinion : the population increased dramatically since Steam hosts Spiral Knights and it wasn't really expected to be so overwhelming.)
Server jams?

Hi! For informational purposes: the delay appears to have only affected players who had transactions within about a five-minute period, which was about twenty minutes before I broadcasted. I had six reports of delay; I don't know how that compared to the overall number of purchases, but it was a very small fraction of the people actually online, which was around ten thousand at the time. The announcement was mostly for the benefit of people who may have had the issue and not known how to contact us.
