Just give us new server names

[MeowyWowie]

Dear SE,

Let's face it, the reason you're hiding the names is because you want the community to spread out evenly among all servers, which is understandable. But as you can see, no matter which way you handle it, the communities will always try to stay together. So why are you hiding names?

I understand that if you kept them hidden there would be less of a chance for all players from one server to move to the same server after the merge. But you're forgetting that for some people their server name is as important as their character name. Some people chose their server specifically because of what its name meant to them.

Solution: Make all new server names and keep them visible.

The communities will still try to stick together, that's inevitable no matter which way you handle it. But at least with new server names we can choose our servers by name and not by chance.

You won't please everyone no matter what you do. But if this problem is solvable without any real casualties, why not?

^Everything she said.

Even though I feel like I've seen it 6 times before in the past 30 minutes. > _ > ;

New server names ftw.

Can't have those 8esaidians taking over 5elbina. :x

I think new server names would be good. The past should remain in the past, and that includes server names. With new server names, there will be less of a reason for people to do this "5elbina" and "7rabia" crap. In with the new, out with the old.

I agree i think new names would be best then i be less mad if other world get selbina and i get stuck with a name i don't like because it not selbina.

Server 10 should be named after a Mystic Quest town, I bet that place will be a desert.

They could use the names they used in Beta!

Who am I kidding, Sephiroth and Kefka would be bursting at the seams.

I agree: New server names please. It just will semi-solve the 'but I love my current server name!' problem. However, it won't fix the 8esaid-ish kinda things. People are still going to try to 'claim' a new server as their own. Human nature.

Also, can we make the different names of the 12 God/Goddesses the current server names? (yes i know it currently leaves 2 out...but those can be added back in at 2.0...SE can even set them aside as 2.0 growth servers). I mean, I know it's a crazy idea to have the server names stem from something that is part of THIS FF's lure but hey, I'm willing to go out on a limb :P

And also keep these new names a secret until after the migration happens.
