I know the game has more then 7,200 players. (Active players could be questioned but lets move on) I was using the quick math and comparing it to another online game that had almost 8 times the players online at the game time.

Game doesnt need to worry about looking bad in the gaming community, its already there due to September 23rd 2010.
If the company cares and IF the PR department is doing there job, they should care what the reputation is at all times. I fully agree that merging the servers will help the players that stayed, but when you only have 18 servers at the start for you new MMORPG, and you're cutting back... Gaming websites and magazines will see the blood and go for it, and vr 2.0 won't save them.

The more negative storys, the more people see them, get turned off by it, and completely disregard anything the game does, even the big 2.0 overhual. First impressions are everything, its just how the world works.
I FULLY AGREE!
