    It can... but I doubt there's 16+ terabytes of data in this game. A server merge shouldn't take more than 6 hours tops and that's with a 1-2 hour buffer to make sure nothing broke.
    How much would the individual character transfers (especially in the case of Ragnarok) and then the implementation of 1.21a add to the downtime? I get the feeling those cases would have a larger downtime to data transfer ratio than just a flat out merge. I would hope they had the foresight to at least have Ragnarok prepared for data before hand, but they would have had to wait until servers went down to transfer the most up to date data.
