I don't normally complain but I felt something needed to be said. A hunt train was just called in my world; there was so many players participating in the hunt that the A ranks would not render for me half the time and trying to teleport to the next aetheryte often got aborted with an error for "Congestion". Sadly a good number of folks running the trains were not only from other worlds, but also saying in chat that the Trains are going as fast as they can and will not wait for no one, even those having loading/server issues. "No time to wait on slow ppl" was one thing that was said.

I know its a back and forth thing if those in other worlds should be able to go to another world and participate in the hunt. There are pros and cons overall, but right now with the new content and obvious counter measures deployed by SE already like instanced Areas like Lakeland, there should be at least a temporary restriction on the hunts if there is nothing technical that can be done to fix these issues. It is not fair to the residence of a world that they cannot participate and get credit on their own hunts and the attitude of some players that won't show courtesy to others just makes it worse.

There could be other solutions to try and mitigate the massive surges that these trains cause; perhaps decreasing the spawn time of the A ranks at a minimum to reduce the need for the trains in the first place or provide alternative ways of getting hunts. I don't know what else can be done on the technical side of things, but giving the history such as restricting access to the firment, SE should look at least look at a temporary restriction.
