Sever Problems start to a fix???????

[Babydoll]

It seems odd to me that a game with such a low population (apparently?) has servers filling up so quickly...either this was poorly executed or I am missing something o.O;

The servers were given a cap based on current population. Naturally if there are 20k players active, they aren't going to cap each server at 5k as they would potentially have a handful of dead servers. Instead, each server would have something like a 2000 active player threshold to evenly distribute us.

These servers capped out so quick because that's how option 2 works. Here's your target number (2000). Now here's a few servers that we are adding before we even begin (1250 and 700), bringing the total population to this (1950). If under goal, accept transfers until goal is met. If over, suspend until drop below goal.

In this example, grats to the 50 people that were able to transfer over to that server before it capped, everyone else GTFO. I'm sure a few of these servers started out significantly above the cut off cap as well, making options even less sparse from the get go.

I agree with Wynn's last post and Webble I dont want people to loose their time put into their character but they should be moved off the servers untill they become active again and let people whom are paying get the ability to choose the server they wish. Thats the whole reason for the merge so that active players can play together.

That's not what is happening jesus christ you people.

The servers are being BALANCED, they are all closed but Ragnorak because only 5 people in the entire world wanted to go to a regional specific EU server.

Once they close the abortion that was Ragnorak, or enough people go there the cap will be raised again.

INACTIVE ACCOUNTS ARE NOT TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT WHEN DECIDING THE SERVER CAPS.

So stop advocating that a bunch of people who simply didn't want to pay for the game in its current state should be shipped off to exile on Ragnorak for no reason at all.

No one is saying it's inactive accounts..Its the active and inactive characters on accounts! Skill up your reading comprehension

No what people don't get is its not the inactive accounts that are filling up the population on servers its the inactive alts that can be transferred along with your active character. SE dropped the ball on the part where it should be the active accounts that count towards the pop cap not the active main character & active/inactive alts since you can't play an alt and your main character at the same time on one account. and like we stated earlier that it is the active and inactive alts/mauls that take up spots cause some of us had to move a couple of alts to the EU server so we could get are remaining member on to the server we want to move too.

And case you didn't get it the 1st time its characters and alts not the bloody accounts so SE needs to fix it so that you can only transfer character that are being payed for then that should free up some room and put some nice chunk of change in SE bank accounts

Read the OP this entire thread is about shipping people with inactive accounts off to another server as a means to fix the cap, when that has nothing to do with the cap in the first place.

I think you are the one in need of an english lesson my friend, because this is what you wrote:

Which is clearly not talking about alts...

No you read the OP it includes the inactive alts in the pop cap =P

Yeah it has every thing to do with it. Inactive characters are taking spots in the server. So they should be moved off the server so that active players can play on the server they choose to . Again reading comprehension inactive accounts hold inactive characters, move them and spots open up on the server
