WOW... protector =(
Just to correct a technical point: The servers were not merged. They were relocated and the server lists were joined. Technically, there is now no distinction between EU and NA servers - the only distinction is two servers localised for French and German, and a little bit of history.

It's not really a "technical" hurdle. It's a social one.
There's two. We don't have a globally unique character naming system, and no universally acceptable method of generating one. That hurdle would need to be resolved before a merge occurred, either by picking one or by punting and forcing everyone from one server to transfer to another.
Then there's supergroups and bases. Its not a *limitation* because they are theoretically surmountable, but they are hurdles and not low hurdles either. |

Incorrect. This was a server LIST merge.
The servers were merged, sort of - all of the four EU servers were moved to go with US servers, haha.
|
So instead of having
US Servers and EU Servers
We now have a combined list of ALL of the above servers and a player can play on ANY of them. Plus a new server has since been added for VIP players.
Angry fansbases count as technical hurdles.

The root problem is social though.

Take care of the social issues, and you can avoid the complimentary technical repercussions.
I see you've never used a powerful bulk eraser have you?
That and if you can get a camera in there, you can get a shot of their face as their case, monitor and what-not rocket towards the wall nearest the scrapyard hoist. It ought to be worth 15 minutes of fame for the stupid, stunned "Someone hit me in the back of the head with a board (a 6x6 no less)." look.

If you're interested in playing villain side on protector there are 2 weekly villain events that you can participate in: VEAT Madness, run by Black Leather Angel, and Strike Force Sundays run by me. To join VEAT Madness you'll need to be playing a Villain Epic AT, though on rare occasions exceptions are made.
Like no one plays on that server and especially the villain side theres no one there =(

When I saw this post, I was wondering why this thread had been moved to the Protector forum section...

The easiest way to eliminate a root problem is to run this:

Yeah, a good degausser or a scrapyard magnetic hoist can sometimes take a rootkit off your neighbor's computer while you're doing your own. It's like a twofer.

Not going to ask why you know that joke.
At some point in his life he participated in popular culture?
There's also thw message that merging servers sends to potential players.
Would you start playing a game that just merged servers together after 8 years? I wouldn't, on the assumption that the game will not be around long enough to make it worth my time to play.
It doesn't matter if the game actually dies within 6 months or not. The press release telling people CoH merged a bunch of servers together would be all that is needed to keep people away from the game.
And there is also the fact that I, and many players like me, LIKE my quiet server. I don't want to play on a server that has so many people on it I lag just trying to travel to a mission. If I wanted to play like that, I would be already.
See, it's gems like these that make me check Claws' post history every once in a while to make sure I haven't missed anything good lately.
