To Ffxiv players: It's not rocket science. There will always be pros and cons to a merger.

However, just like *yoshi so kindly explained* for those the comprehension challenged amongst us all: The option they chose for merging servers is the best.

Why?

It allows *the community* to decide where they want to go. Or if you just don't care you can let them auto pick a world for you.

In all honesty, ppl that have an issue with this are either immensely slow in the mental department or too lazy to ask their "friends" to decide on a world they can migrate too.

Seriously looks like a mass crowd panicking. Of course when you're afraid or angry you forget to rationalize and start lashing out at the source of your confusion.

Its so simple:
- start talking to all your buddies about what server you wish to go to.

- once you have a plan then just await the time when you can put your options in.

For ppl complaining about big LSes getting shafted: you seriously think every person in your LS is your "super close" buddy? If they decide to roll out to another server instead of the one you all agreed on do you really think they cared all that much? You might have just been a nice friend that helped them get what they wanted ocassionally.

Everyone bitching is seriously making this too big of a deal.

SE is giving you options, so stop crying and start planning!
