I'd have literally unsubbed if staying on a small server was my only option. I briefly debated it, but looking at recruitment for servers like Gilgamesh and Leviathan convinced me to give moving a chance.

Preventing transfers or in any way forcing or pressuring players onto small servers is a terrible idea. The MMO experience some people play and pay for is only available on large ones. Maybe a merge isn't the answer, but the other options (short of simply leaving everything as-is) are even worse.
