Because it makes all computers who have something to say wait until they get the token. Some info that needs to be sent may be very important but if it doesn't have the token then too bad. It'll have to wait.
Token Ring networks can become inefficient in LANs with a large perimeter due to increased delays in token circulation. As the distance between nodes grows, the time it takes for the token to complete a full cycle around the network increases, leading to slower data transmission. Additionally, the chance of token loss or collision may rise, further affecting network efficiency. This can result in significant latency and reduced overall throughput in large-scale deployments.

In a token bus network architecture, the nodes at either end of the bus do not actually meet. In a token ring, the network logically functions as a ring, but is wired as a star.
It is a 'token' of your affection for that person.
That is not possible. In Token Ring, only the station with the token can transmit.
IBM created the token ring architecture, which was used for years primarily by Novell.
