nope.

Wont matter if u tier lock a server u can put me in a militia suit and i will still use assault DS with xt missles wont make a difference.

I say just make the game north American and europe only and lol if you live anywhere else. Move to someplace that matters.

Yes, because that's going to work for PC when you have players from Asia trying to invade a territory held by an EU corp.

And Corps with members from various regions certainly wouldn't be completely screwed by this proposal.

And someone like me who's completely nocturnal should be perfectly happy to be the only active player on their server whenever I'm awake.

For the above reasons, I wholeheartedly agree with this suggestion.

NOTE: In case you can't tell, I don't actually agree at all. It's a terrible idea.

Locking people onto a single server DOESN'T resolve any "balance" issues AT ALL.

It's completely unrelated.

Also, region locking never fixes as many problems as it leaves unaddressed even when you're looking at what it DOES affect, which is matchmaking. The problems caused by fully unlocked matchmaking are all about lag, and with proper management of netcode and ping tolerances, you can fix more problems more completely than you can with any kind of regional restrictions. You also avoid the problems where some ISPs around the world use IP addresses which are normally associated with another region.

You made two points in your post.

I argued solidly against one of them. The other is totally irrelevant to my post. It's also a proposal that's been suggested many times before, and which I've agreed with in the past. You actually proposed almost exactly the method of enforcement I've suggested.

That doesn't negate the fact that most of your post was about the other suggestion, which was terrible. The only way regional matchmaking would be plausible is if they don't apply it to Planetary Conquest, Factional Warfare or any matches where players are able to squad up with their corpmates (pro-tip: That would be all of them). Including a good balancing suggestion alongside a completely stupid and totally unrelated idea doesn't magically make the stupid idea less of a stupid idea.

Uhhhh... any of the competent anti-afk measure that were proposed alongside the thorough shooting-down of what CCP ended up doing in the week leading up to them implementing the worst possible anti-afk measure they could come up with?

You haven't been here very long, have you?

I thought Oceania was the joke server...I always go over there when I want to wreck some face on a new character with under 1 million SP and a standard level flaylock because people stop moving to shoot at you.
