But on a serious note, even if population is quite high on Illyfue, Eyrda, Storm,.. with Tera, Diablo3 (today) and GW2 coming next, I can foresee the population of those decreasing, and something might have to be done if we don't want to have ghost town servers..:o

All servers should have been merged into one from the day this game went live.
The game's been dead from the start compared to China servers, and with D3/TERA/GW2 etc this game is just gonna keep getting deader. Doesn't help that the game plays itself either.
I like the idea, but would be cool to switch server like once free and after that it cost money or something.
Instead of starting all over in a new server?
you'd have to make gt, fk, any high exp giving mini quest instances, and nc all day events and when i say all day i mean from 00:00 server time to 23:59 server time

Irrelevant.
They'd have to wipe IR to merge servers without bugging it out, the rest will even itself out on its own.
i'm sorry, what?
you sure you play on Eyrda?
PvE players come to eyrda, bringing vast amounts of gold and gems etc to the whatever name they call the merg'd server, devaluing everything in the server to the point where gold is worthless. are you dumb enough to not understand that b asic fundamental of economics? this is not the first time i've made this counter argument to such a blatant obliviousness of the problems a merge would cause. yeah, gw2/d3/tera will steal a lot of players. that means PWE will have to be competitive. but the only way that'll happen is to make the cash shop affect gameplay far less.

While I'd agree with you if this was a different game - stfu, FW's economy is completely unstable, and the game is 100x crappier than it would be if they'd have started out with only 1 or 2 servers.
If you want to ***** about economy, then ***** at PWE for their stupid boxes or other cash related events ruining the economy EVERY SINGLE WEEK.
Problem is PWE are cheapskates, don't want to invest in good hardware and connection. It's much more profitable to open a buunch of ghost towns on **** hardware.

Maybe Lionheart is just that awesome, but I rarely cannot find a party when I need one, being a lowbie in mgt excluded. But then again, I use WC/guildies to fill party slots, not the T function except for gt.... >.>" you know, like most of the people.
I can't say the same for other servers, especially Euro or Nyos, but I honestly don't see the extreme lack of players. Is it overcrowded like PWI? No, but PWI is like 10 years older, we'll get there.
I'd still like to hear your solution to the high scores, arena points (mostly) guilds/guild bases, Rift territories, event schedule times.... I mean how much more OP would a guild be if all their members happen to be online (because it's say 6:00 pm or so) when the EB bosses go up? Where as another guild it's like 4:00 am... I mean, let's think about this. Also what about pvp vs pve? I personally don't like to get pked when I'm out picked flowers, it's not fun to me, so I'd like to stay in my pve server tyvm.
The economy is a whole other can of worms though. I don't see how merging all teh servers would help stabilize it, unless it'd just bring all the cs'ers together. Not to mention Lionheart even had that whole cat egg fiasco, so on your server they might be worth a bit of coin, here, 50g tops. Given cats aren't nearly as OP any more >.>"....
On the whole, no.

i like that they are not unified b/c i feel it's easier to make friends in your server. whats the point of meeting people you can't later regroup with if you really happened to find someone you liked/ didn't find absolutely annoying...
There's a simple solution - merge them but lock out any form of selling from 'visiting' players. They could not trade/vend/auction.
They could play normally otherwise though and farm stuff on other servers as well as do instances.
It's irrational however not to have some form of merge when there's servers that are practically dead. It's leaving players out in the cold, and will slowly kill the game as those servers are abandoned. At the very least all the european ones should be merged with Illyfue.
I would personally merge them all and allow full ability to trade, but some die hards do love their imaginary economies.
Theres been a lot of threads about this....
Nixa said its not happening
Everytime its diacussed we have the exact same thing.
Stop opening threads like this fgs. Merge aint going to happen so why bother.
