There isn't anything special planned for the merge anniversary.

It hadn't even occurred to me that the date is in 2 days until after I read this thread.

Kyrios, don't do it. Don't do anything special for it. It's going to open up some wounds. Just let the day pass. I'm telling you right now - it's a BAD idea.

Now what would be a good idea especially with the recession and the fact that you guys shut down MS2 amongst lots of other games in the last few years, and there is probably going to be another "restructure" because of that...maybe now is the time to consider just having one big server for everyone. I mean we all want to be together now, this community is over 12 years old. Lets all just be one big happy family.

I mean taking care of one server should in theory make it easier and more cost effective.

At least not right now, the world is already seething with enough rage and anger. People don't need to know the reasons right now and add more negativity in their bodies.

Horse Hockey! You're making the assumption that the reason it is so would make people angry. There's no reason not to tell us why. Everyone is house bound anyway and the people who play this game are the kinds of folks that never leave their basement anyway even when it's not a pandemic.

Not to mention exactly who are all these millitians rebirthing out of? Nao?

I always had the impression we just fell out of the clouds and woke up like Subaru outta Re:Zero starting his next life, but thank you for the next mental image to give me headaches for a couple hours.

Well if it is Nao and if all Millitians can therefore call her "mom" then thanks to the cooking/coffee wagon trucks, natives of Erinn will know what Millitians mean when they say: "Wow, you really could drive a truck through it!"

Thet literally took that current time's player count and thought "Yeah, it will be same!".

I think that is precisely what they did. But even that was based on the flawed idea that the merge should not be a complete one. Before the announcement, I said that they should either do a complete merge or none at all, that an incomplete merge would be the worst outcome. That's what we got and I think it was. Had it been a full merge then the naming fiasco would be behind ALL of us now. It's not like it came as a surprise, nearly ALL the talk about the merge, before it happened centered on character names.

Now, what happens if the conditions arise that forced the merge in the first place, leading to a final merge. The folks on Nao will say that they've been through the name issue once and should not have to go through it again. The folks on Alexina will say that it is unfair that just because they were left out of the original merge, by Nexons hand alone, that it is unfair to them to automatically be forced to forfeit their names. Both sides are right. Either one side just loses or Nexon has to change how names work. Either of these could have been avoided had the merge been a full one, and that is not the community or any part of the community's fault.

Memory lane:
- announcement of the pending merge;
- the completed merge announcement;
- the announcement of the kludge they implemented shortly after they realized that Alexina wasn't "about half" the population of the player-base.

The reason folks are running out of space is because they are stuffed to the gills with crap they can't put on pets, can't transfer, and can't sell. Make EVERYTHING saleable, and our inventory problems will clear up in short order.
