He's talking about a server queue, not a queue server
Some big servers actually have a system like that

While it's true that we had a queue server around 2020 or later it wouldn't work as well today since we have a restore system for people who crash and re-join the server and for server crashes.

I'm aware that getting your slot back when you crash or timeout is almost impossible thanks to V6 release but you also simply just can't bring back the queue server as the restore system would get in the way.
No clue how hard or easy this is to fix so don't take it from my backseat opinion.
(also FYI staff would get in faster due to queue skipping)

Just spam enter and pray you join
In a week or two the player count will most likely go back to normal so it won't be needed imo.

Well, maybe but it would still be good for the situations to come.

The only reason why player count was so insanely high was because of v6 drop obviously but also the fact that it was weekend, a week from now it will be back to semi normal level player counts chill out with queue server its not needed.
