    I got to go to the server i wanted, Im just trying to help with all the players that are "actually" playing. Hey lets accommodate to all non active players. That sounds like a good plan. Dont you think.

    Yes I do, especially considering they outnumber people whining about this like you about 10,000 to 1.

    You are in a minority among paying players too, who wanted this option so that when their friends returned to the game they wouldn't be on some random server (and thus much less likely to stay around).

    I wanted the open option so all inactive players moved to a default spot. I have friends that are inactive and thats there problem. Also again catering to the AFK.

    Already been down this road.
    A while back when they announced the original plan.

    Again last night too, in a different thread.

    People got what they asked for....Not ideal, but that's what happens when you demand change without thinking clearly.

    I don't think inactive accounts have anything to do with the current problem, unless servers have a technical limit of possible character data.

    Don't you think they considered a certain % of inactive accounts that will never come back when they fixed server population caps ?

    Do you think it would have been better with Option 4 ? We would have had the current "problem" ten fold, most popular servers filling up in minutes leaving a lot of linkshells separated, not just the ones who decided to switch servers for whatever reasons like we have now (exceptions).

    Edit: But I understand the overall frustation,it must be though to be stuck on a server that isn't Durandal.

    A few popular servers may have filled rather quickly, but entire linkshells would have still been able to migrate to another one as most would have had plenty of space. Not be stuck between two or go EU like the situation many are faced with now. 4 was indeed a much better and smarter option. Naturally many of those who aren't impacted negatively by this don't understand or care to so long as they and everyone they care about are squared away.

    Yoshi-P knew what he was doing. Unfortunately, he caves too easily since he wants to be everyone's friend. Eventually he will learn that being a leader and being a friend are sometimes not compatible.

    lol reroll the inactives? that's just crazy talk, for one that is extorsion and blackmail ..making people pay for a year that the game isn't even ready to play. two i been inactive for like 6months and if i lost my account at this point i'd probably get a lawyer and try to sue SE. three it's not the inactives fault its how they implementing the merge also it's how everyone reacted to the merg in first place prior, since the first way to do it was the best way. everyone worry'ing about holding onto 4-5linkshells of people when really there is no way ...now or in the old to do so less everyone desides to stay put.

    on side not lets hope SE once again does another fix. i say they just need to add 1 server that is completly new and empty. one that everyone can move to. that way all linkshells can stay or go to the ones we have now and people who want a active 2k population can move to the new one. and all the inactives will be left to where they are and not effect people who want to see everyone in the server list logging in not just 200 over the 100 we have now...witch is what is going to happen when u combine 2 empty servers that have 100people in them active at the most.

    Inactives should be moved off the server. Either in a holding server till the account comes active again or wiped completely If your not paying why should you take up a spot from someone who is? Look at the forums you can't post and interact with the community if you are not paying for the service so why should you hold a spot up from someone who pays? Bottom line inactive characters are taking up space we proved it twice. They need to be moved.
