Not a merge, but open migration

[Lefein]

This may not have happened on other worlds but in 2007 or so Odin was at over 5,000 players in the normal hours. Growing to over 6,000 at peak times of the day. There were constant server messages asking people to leave Whitegate due to over crowding. Every NM Merit camp PT area Mission area .. you name it was full to bursting. Free transfers were required (the server was also completely LOCKED for 2 years almost) .. over population is a very bad thing. I doubt they'll risk it happening. Though I don't think mergers will happen soon either. I've played a long time, I've never seen us as a community as ignored as we are now. On the surface it seems like we're all in open communication, but the more I read the dev posts the more it seems like smoke and mirrors. A lot of "Here are the answers to the questions and concerns you've put to us!" Who put these concerns to you? As players we've all got concerns, but what does my r/m/e matter if I'm the only person left? I sometimes think there must be some utopian server out there where everyone speaks every language the population is a balanced and even mix of leveling people + end game LS's the AH is nice and healthy and the population is never over 3,000 and never under 2,500. It's these players who are concerned solely about r/m/e gear and the like. Most of us not invited to FFXItopia worry more about when our friends are going to get fed up and quit and leave us by ourselves staring at 10 years worth of old mission rewards gathering dust on the walls of our empty lonely moghouses.
