My journey with PUBG started with my son, who is an adventurous and creative partner with the game. Like him, there are numerous members of the  community that pour their heart and soul into their content, forming the backbone of the vibrant, active Oceania and New Zealand PUBG community on both PC and Console. Recently, Krafton's decision to merge the servers of Oceania (OCE) with Southeast Asia (SEA) in the new PUBG update 32.1 has been met with profound dissatisfaction and concern. The merger will result in higher latency, unfair matches, and ultimately, an unenjoyable gaming experience for thousands of our fellow OCE players.

Beyond the gameplay issues, this decision is also likely to hinder the growth of budding PUBG partners from our region, like my son, as it would negatively impact the quality of their content, thus limiting their reach.

The central problem doesn't just lie with this particular update, but more in the lack of effective consultation with the community before making such impactful decisions. Our voices have been absent from the conversation, leaving us feeling overlooked and dismissed.

We, therefore, make an urgent request to Krafton to reverse their decision and separate the OCE and SEA servers in the next patch update. Furthermore, we insist that Krafton engage with its dedicated community for their future decisions that shape our PUBG experience.

Let's send a clear message to Krafton - we are not just consumers; we are a community. Join us in our fight by signing this petition today and telling Krafton that we want and deserve a say in how our game develops.
