    nope that's not what it means. rush hour means that is the most active time for people to be driving. i never says all people are there, but that you will not find a time in which more are there. that is why it is called "peak". i checked almost every hour for the last 24 for the peak time.

    the most karnak had at any time was 312. does that mean that there is only 312 players in the karnak server? no, it means even at karnak's busiest time there was a total of 312 players online. at its "peak time" there were that many.

    xD lol nice one.

    Well yeah... like you also said in the other Thread and like i also mentioned about PS3 and Stuff. Im not saying that merging doesnt make Sense or something, but i think SE is actually waiting for the Numbers after subscription happend. Or they are actually waiting till v2, since we will have new Servers anyways. We dont really know how they pay the Server.. to save Money i would assume they do it on a Yearly Charge, but i dont know that really. If something like that is the case i could understand why they are not merging it yet. A lot of different posiblities there, which we have not a Clue about, but im pretty sure SE has Plans for this.

    well i was looking that even if they don't save on the server itself due to however they are contracted they would be saving on the upkeep on it. they would not need the extra dev time(which costs), gm time(which costs), and lost members due to dead servers(which will cost subscriptions from people that would pay otherwise).

    most of the people that i have spoken to about after the payment takes hold have stated only 2 reasons for why they aren't going to pay. from the people that stated they were leaving the reasons were either 1. the server is dead and they have nobody to play with or 2. they don't feel the game is ready to pay for and they will come back later.

    they may not be able to resolve issue 2 right now, but at least they could remedy option 1 and that would keep a few more people in game. i'm not saying it would magically make everyone stay and pay, but it would get rid of one of the major reasons some have stated they would be leaving.

    i just looked at the making the game more fun for the small servers by giving them more people to party up with and make new friends, saved cash they had to spend on upkeep and paying their staff, and making more off subscriptions then it wouldn't bother the big servers and make them more money in the long run. that's even if they still had to pay for that server even though it wouldn't be used because they would just have a blank server with no upkeep costs.

    Thank you Captain Obvious. I don't know what I'd do without you.
