The best course of un-neccessary action

[LeonstrifeLEV]

Say you wanted to get something to occur, like say... getting your server merged with another.
How would YOU go about getting your little universe over there for reasons we shall not look too deeply into for the moment.
Hypothetically if you will.

You wouldn't. SE makes that call. If you wanted to be on another server you'd utilize the server transfer service. If you wanted your entire server to merge with another, which - I can't imagine why, then you'd just have to suck it up and realize that you have no influence on that process.

That process ins influenced by a something, and that something... is a thing. That things manipulation is key to this and that is what needs to be found out.

Gentlemen, Ladies, and non-sexual pony lovers. (friends of the pony?) It is my request that we discover what that THING is! For the benefit of not just Leviathans people, but perhaps even your own.

Low server population?

If you're not going to just come out and say it then don't expect people to bother taking you seriously.

If Leviathan was in need of a server merge it would have likely happened.

Low server population?

How do you force SE's hand there? It's not as though he can make other people quit. And trying to scare them off the server would just likely get him banned for harassment.

What Murphie said.

SE only merges servers when their populations get low, and they seem to like matching merged servers according to their names (e.g. Quetz with Midgard, both are mythical serpents.)

Whatever you're trying to achieve, you probably can't. You'd basically have to somehow drain the population of the two servers you want to merge to force SE to do something about it.

Ya that is an issue isn't it.

Maybe a way to show that social interaction is incredibly low in game and that People feel more owned then part of a group?

Wording things have always been a issue of mine. The meaning is there I just cant convey it.

I don't know. He asked what would cause a server merge, and I just answered.

Maybe the issue is with you?

@Takelli - I wasn't taking a shot at you. Just sort of building off of what you said.^^

Well ya I mean there is no cheap way to get a name change.

Why do you think that a server merge would change the conditions you're talking about? And if you think the problem is local to your server, why not just move to another one?

So you feel as though you've made a bad name for yourself on your server but don't want to pay the $25 to move servers and rename yourself?

Re: The best course of un-neccessary action

I was debating it then 6 people came back onto leviathan with old characters and I cant pay for all of them. 3 of them are canadian I don't even know the conversion rate if I could afford it.

This picture never gets old.

Anyways, did you think you could get a free name change with a server migration? Or do server migrations come with free subscriptions?

Re: The best course of un-neccessary action

So long as I am on a server that is moving, the server being merged to gets dibs on their handles.

A long shot but it would be around 100 dollars and about 2 months before I make a full trip just for a name change.

Meanwhile I wouldn't mind playing with other people, see how they tick, and not be told "OMG that is one of my favorite pairings!"
