free account in Europe for low population

I get the last part of your suggestion... but what do you mean "free account"? That all Europeans would play for free? Wouldn't all us NAers jump ship to play for free over there?
Also, try at least a little to make a post that is actually a coherent suggestion. You know, with full sentences and an actual argument as to why anyone should care about your suggestion. Heck, I wrote more than like 12 of your posts just to comment on it.
1) Highly unlikely as it would lead to a collapse of income for Paragon Studios/NC Soft.
2) How many times do people have to be told that a Server List merge is unlikely to happen?!
My guess is that the OP means 'give people with a NA account free access to the European servers, in the hope that it will boost the number of people playing on EU servers'. That makes slightly more sense than making the EU servers free-to-play for everyone, anyway.

I'm sure that there's more behind the idea, but on the surface, I've got nothing to go on other than "Hey, let's maintain the servers while recieving zero subscription income!", which is an awful idea for the financial well-being of the company.

I, personally, am both a Player and a NCsoft/Paragon Studios supporter. I see no dichotomy in this. But I also think that the possibility of consolidating the NA and EU Servers isnt beyond the pale. While Server Merges is hopefully not anywhere on the horizon.
So, if the idea here is to give access to all Servers to all Players, I am for it. If it is to give free Game Time to Euros; I am against it. Gotta pay to play, liebchen.

Yes, it would collapse their income. 13.00 a month from 100 players (as you seem to think) totals up to 1,300 a month. Also, if the EU Servers were given free playtime, then a lot of players (both current and future), would head to the EU Servers, leaving a bigger gap in income.|
