Hi.. I'm quite new to this MMO server stuff and looking for some adivise.
I always belived that it would be technically hard to serve more than 4 digits ppl in a single shard.
I heard its max 5k per shard.

But Second Life and Eve allows everyone on at the same time in the same place. (1 shard only). At first , i was like HOW??? and studied their tech docs and stuff but couldn't find any clue
how they did it.  Since SGS's one of the main feature is to provide shardless architecture.. (right?) please enlighten me to the path of shardless game server architecture.

thanks in advance.. and sorry for my poor english..
