Why would I (or any other group for that matter) want to negotiate away all our hard work? We have an FC house that our people busted ass to obtain. I wouldn't just throw that out the window. It's about more than just numbers. I think maybe some other small fcs feel the same way. Being as small as some of us are, we work really hard to get what we have, be it a house, our raid progression, our fc funds, etc etc. If there were a situation where things could "truly" merge and neither party had to essentially throw away or put all their hard work on the line, it would be more appealing. I can't imagine logging in one day and saying, "Hey guys I know you all busted your ass for x, y, and z but we'll be destroying that so we can merge elsewhere." Maybe it's just me being super proud of my crowd, I dunno.
