As some of you may have noticed, PC EU currently has some performance issues. Supposedly, those issues are caused by a "massive influx of players" and as a short-term solution to this problem Zos even had to turn on login queues.

So, what other possible short-term solutions are there to limit the amount of players on our beloved EU server? Preferably ones that don't cost Zos any paying and playing customers.

They already said they don't want to open a new server (which is totally understandable) but what about utilising one of the existing ones?
Let's all buy consoles! That's right, good ol' PTS.
Testing for Elsweyr is scheduled to start next week, but would it be possible to get the PTS up and running a few days earlier? Maybe friday or even today?

Not only would that divert quite a lot of players away from the EU server, it would also give them a more constructive outlet for their understandable frustration.
The brave few who remain on the server would benefit from it as well because the login queues would get shorter and maybe performance would even improve ever so slightly.

Pretty please @ZOS_JessicaFolsom and @ZOS_GinaBruno ?
