On behalf of those who wouldn't mind some additional traffic on other servers, may I request that my fellow forumites not tell every single new player to play on either Freedom or Virtue "because those are the only places you can get a team"?*

The thing is that every time that they have offered free server transfers, a bunch of people whine "Why not just merge the servers and get it over with?"... I was trying to nip that in the bud before it even started to grow.|

Most of my friends and SG members have migrated to Virtue. We spent 5 plus years on another server and had a great time there but have been enjoying Virtue a lot.

What are the top 4 servers for active population? Freedom, Virtue, _________ and... ?
Apparently, I play "City of Shakespeare"
*Arc #95278-Gathering the Four Winds -3 step arc; challenging - 5 Ratings/3 Stars (still working out the kinks)
*Arc #177826-Lights, Camera, Scream! - 3 step arc, camp horror; try out in 1st person POV - 35 Ratings/4 Stars
I think Infinity and Justice are quite high-ish on the population list.

If you've only played an AT once (one set combo) and "hate" it - don't give up. Roll a different combo. It may just be those sets not clicking for you.

Personally, I'm ready to be able to play the content. I found myself just not doing much in Praetoria because I don't want to come into GR-Release with a "yawn, been there, done that" at the content.
Poked my nose in, tested a bit on the sets (finally, my electric Dom will LIIIIIIIVE!) but honestly, I avoided quite a bit. Don't think I took a Praetorian past level 10. (Well, running into doors to nowhere and the like earlier didn't help that.)
Think that's why I enjoyed the AE beta so much - you *couldn't* really burn out on content, just test the stuff that'd help make it (and be amused/confused/amazed/dazed by the bugs.)

You can - but it means the NCSoft death squads will be sent out to your house pretty quickly.

Server transfer still means we dont get the Passport badge, right?
1396 Badges... here's hoping this won't be the end! SAVE PARAGON CITY
Correct - that's still only for the now-ended America-to-Europe transfer service.

It is nice for those people inclined, like my wife, but the cynic in me sees all these free transfers as a stealthy way to allow players to move from unpopulated servers over to those more active. The same thing would be accomplished via the dreaded server merge, only players would be forced and it carries the aroma of death.
Hey, can anyone tell me what servers exactly are dead? I only ask because I was told my primary server, Guardian, is one of them, yet I never seem to have a problem getting a team or even a 8 toon TF/SF together at almost any time of day or night. Would be nice to know though.

Dec out.
