inb4 People claim the OP is a racist.
I should probably state this now, but asking for a server to be assigned to a specific continent due to the amount of lag being caused by players from a region is in no way racist.
---
Not trying to be one of those guys who say "ban these laggers!", but from an objective viewpoint it does make sense considering how every other continent (barring Australia) has it's own server, and since there is a large amount of players from South America, it wouldn't have negative repercussions on game-play.
Though I doubt CCP will put money into DUST for a new server.

Indeed. As a compromise, I'd say automatically kick players from matches if their ping rate is too low.
That way people who wish to play on a different server (for whatever reason) may still do so, but only if it doesn't compromise the gaming experience of others.

I thought Africa had it's own server, but if it doesn't than I'd have no objection to it reciving one. As Betty said earlier, CCP should be marketing to audiences of the 3rd world, as many of them are just now getting PS3s.
Antartica doesn't have a population above 100, let alone consumers.

Remember a lot of those Spanish names are Mexican or Central American, and those guys are nearer to the US than Rio or wherever the new server would be. There will be fewer actual South Americans playing than Asians, and that server struggles for numbers as it is.
I doubt this, as there are many, many players who play DUST that are from South America, as evident by the vast amount of players from corporations such as "DUST BRAZIL" and "COALITION LATINA". Mexico & Central America (for the most part) are North American, so they'd automatically be assigned to the NA server.
