Once sub fee are reinstated we know there is going to be a dip in population on a per world basis.

I want to know if there are any plans in place to merge some servers to keep the population in balance. I don't think we'll be playing in ghost towns (since people will conglomerate in Uldah even more so) but the more people around the merrier.

I know server merge is taboo in MMOs but I'm thinking of our "quality of game life" over the next year. More people per server (via merge) will create a more robust economy. Material will be plentiful. Crafters will have more competition driving market prices to more reasonable levels. More people to exp and raid with is never a bad thing.

On SE's side it's less over head costs by maintaining all those servers.

When Ver 2.0 launches there is window of opportunity to open more servers.

Thoughts?
