I wonder where the sources are saying with will 100% without a doubt lose all our equipment if the merger happens. Did it happen before and this resulted? Is there no way to suggest people keep their equipment ect. Im sure if this does happen Nexon would want to do what is best for the community. Im sure many people would perfer to keep their things and not lose them. If your going to lose everything it would probably upset people and make them quit so I hope Nexon would consider options to keep what you have maybe just change the server these things are instanced at.
It would allow people to more easily make friends or find people do do certain things (SM, dungeon,..).
It would stabilize the economy (Or ruin it, more in my "Why it would be bad" response.)
Why It Would Be Bad:
Depending on the type of merge, it could be where there are too many players. Some people don't like others constantly around them. If it gets crowded, I get annoyed really quickly and go to a less busier place.
Also depending on the merge, the economy could just tank, not the good kind either.
People with less powerful computers will have an issue playing.
There will be less available space for shopping, unless more channels are provided.
There will be less Ancients around, unless more channels are provided.
There will be many issues pertaining to lag and crashing by players.
There will most certainly be a lot of technical and financial issues if Nexon NA were to proceed doing so.
Personally, it would e(a?)ffect me greatly;
I'm the kind of person to stay on the least populated channels of Mari and hang out with my friend.
I dislike too much interaction and like to choose when I go and communicate with the larger population.
My computer isn't as good as most peoples. I lag just going to Belvast on Ch. 2 (Mari's shopping channel).
Our economy is stressful enough for me to deal with right now lol
Overall, I'm against a merge of any kind. No thank you, none for me.
There's literally no one else in this thread you could've been referring to, Sam.
Guess what?
A server merge ain't happening. You can beg and wish and plead and dream and cry all you want, but it won't come.
Oh, and the thread derailed only once you started posting, so, yeah.
Also, say you DO transfer servers; if the people that you claim are harassing you are really after you, then they'd simply follow you and continue their treatment of you. If someone is harassing you, why not do something that you KNOW will get a response, and submit a Customer Service ticket.
On topic: I've said it before, and I'll say it again; a server merge is, in my opinion, a sign that the game is on its last leg.
Oh, and one more word, Samalex; when you make a topic, you're supposed to put your name and server. If you don't want those people from your server finding you, then use an alt's name.
Anyways done with these peoples drama and going to ignore these clear lies about me so this thread can get back on topic i stead of being derailed to attack me all the time. Watch them attack me though even though I want to focus on the real topic not them.
Lol you act like I dont know how to report people. Thats kind of amusing but believe me I know already XD
Naa id rather my alts not get attacked also. Good try through.
Derailed because of people attacking me over the opinion I posted on the subject which differed from theirs actually. Want that part clear because people have misunderstood me a lot in this thread by jumping to conclusions and making assumptions.
If they do follow me wouldn't that be stalking which Im sure is a violation of the TOS especially if they follow me for malicious reasons. I hope they wouldn't be that obsessed with me to go that far.
Going to ignore all the drama now and respond to subject material unless people continue to attack me directly.
You YOURSELF said that people were harassing you. Stop running and report them.
You can either report them, or continue to cry foul here, when everyone but you realizes you're in the wrong.
I'm leaving any deleted comments at a Vmod's discretion at this point.

Now all of you cool down and get this thread back on track of why or why not a server merge or mega server would work for Mabinogi.
(Business ideas for Nexon to gain profit from this would work too!)
Thank you, this was some nice input.
However, lag is an issue with any game with any server count.
There's never a miracle number to make it 100% lagless without an expensive computer and graphics card.
Mabinogi's Market is... a rather complex problem with an equation that's never really solved by the Cash Shop or Gachapons, so there's not much that could be done either way to 'fix' it.
Exactly. Lag.. is awful but sadly it can't be avoided so easily. And the Mabi Economy is so bad with things as simple as fashion products reaching 200m+ for Mari.
I treat feedback about Mabinogi's servers as an official way for the Nexon staff to get a glance at feedback from players, arguments that lead the topic thread off the issue at hand should be placed in a new thread in the general section. That is it, period.
What you're calling personal isn't personal at all.
I understand your concerns of getting the thread locked, however, making the general claim will not help a lot of the time. Drama leaked from.an individual and then spread like wildfire because the public had already been dealing with the nonsense several locked threads prior.
I think you're doing right by taking it up with VFMs. Maybe this rather bland and wide-spread issue will finally be resolved -- whether someone gets banned or someone gets a serious warning.
Many mentioned the topic of a server merge and there was debate about it (other than the replies of a somebody, claiming to be 'attacked'.)
I still do not believe a merge will happen. Nexon NA will have to bring in a lot more money to afford a merge. That means we either need to spend up to thousands on this virtual game, or we need a bigger population.
Hopefully the revisions to the OP are good in terms of being decently understandable. (I'm still working on and thinking about it.)
I'm heavily on the fence due to the money issue alone, although Nexon KR might be willing to innovate even at the risk if we get lucky.
The only revision this thread needs is a lock.
In order to complete a server merge, they're going to need brand new technology that costs several thousands of dollars that Nexon KR is not going to put on the table because the money is not there.
If a business puts out a little on this small of a community, which they'll have to pay the staff for building the servers and using extra time to put the data where it needs to be; the community could still die out just as much as it is now. We'd basically put NA out of business.
Also a lot of newer gamers, young kids, do not like our graphics and engine. They're more likely to play the games that look and feel more realistic than Mabi.
That's another challenge they have to face: if they spend the money and the new players do not come, what point was there if the server just died in a few years?
Our current servers have lasted 9 years. I don't think Nexon KR is going to replace them because of a gut feeling or a popular debate topic.
