there's 8 now? No wonder I was feeling like the place was crowded
Dante, no worries I didn't use any emotes so I guess it's easy to construe as negativity. Trust me, when I'm being negative I'm kinda positive about it.

You know, mereman is so old, I'm surprised he remembers what server he's supposed to be on anyway...

On the other hand cross-server + server list will do as much as the same (no pop increase), what is better in this case is that you could teamup picking teams out of 14 more servers instead of 3...and will allow you to "team with the wider community"
About character slots: Devs allowed more slots per single server totalling 36 per server; if that is not enough for you..a server list merge will allow you to have 132 more slots spread over 11 servers, expandable to 396
are you asking for cross-server teaming to access all 15 servers and no server list merge?

As it had happened to Dante... I just don't find it funny and have gotten bored by it. Specially since you take it into convos where it just has no relevance. In short GG every time I see you (specially) post it, It just get on my nerves, so could you refrain from doing it so much?
Thank you.

I'd suggests you read WW's post again - and not pre-judge it before she actually tells us what it'll be.

One of my big personal goals is bringing people together, and this will help with that agenda. (How's that for vague? What can I tell you, it's "in development.")
Anyway, I'm sure they're not all the answers you wanted to hear, but at least you have "an official word" now, which was the goal of the exercise. So that is progress.  War Witch |
With what I can guess (cross-server teaming) and what I can reasonably hope for (server list merge) I tried to answer your questions.
I know they don't want to merge the two lists for their reasons, anyway I still think it is a positive idea for any CoX player (past, current and future ones).
Please read Lady Arete's thread here.

I have probably misread it, but WW only said there will be no merging of servers, and haven't mentioned anything about list merging 
By the way I love playing on both EU (English) servers. One thing that is better on EU servers than on US is that we don't have PUGs, since we all know each others
"If you want to win you must not lose."
"Easiest way to turn defeat into a victory is to put on the enemy's uniform"
"Better strategic retreat than dishonorable defeat"
- Il Numero Uno (The Number One)
Thankfully we do not need servers merge, it will require more work and user hassle than a server list merge. I'll explain what I see as issues with both:
Servers merge:
- global names collision (will impact: emails, global friends, AE)
- character names collision (will impact: toons, server friends, player notes)
- SG names collision (will impact: coalitions)
- channel names collision (could impact channel size limit)
- same character slots (could impact server slot limit)
- global names collision (will impact: emails, global friends, AE)
- more character slots
a similar rule could be applied in some time and if there is the will, same as stated by Judgement_Dave:

Well can you blame us after watching GG promote this hostility between us, in how many posts are there now? (I've stopped counting)
We just fear her animosity has infected the rest of you wonderful players
