About the World Merge and Character Transfers (02/09/2012)

My friends consist of my linkshell. Easy.

It's still not hard to talk to people; No matter how many "friends" you have.
One could hardly believe you have countless friends on servers that currently hold minimal players.

You mean all the people who are currently away till "2.0" or the people I don't have in my linkshell but talk a lot to, but they have to follow their own linkshell? Or the people you lose when you finally picked a server to go to and then ends up being "full" and others are left out. Sure you can switch to another server with your current active linkshell members, but getting all those other types of people all over: no way.

Don't know what to tell you.
People who aren't playing(Thus not paying) don't get to decide what they do with their inactive data.
I saw nowhere in the announcement that there would be a limit to any particular server so I don't think the "full server" issue applies here like it did when the game launched.

I also find it hard to fathom that there would be NO options down the road for people who do come back for 2.0.
That would be terribly short sighted on SE's part; I also think it's terribly short sighted on the community's part to think that there wouldn't be options down the line considering the fact that new worlds will be created for 2.0 in the event of a large influx of subs. Server transfer's for a fee would not be out of the realm of possibility and is considered a standard now a days.

Freaking out now does nothing.
