Server Merges

Quote from narkfestmojo

It's possible you have some weird, unique experience of Dual Invite Harassment happening to you, but I've never even heard of it before this thread.

As someone who has been playing on and off since 2012, I can tell you 2000 hours is almost comical.

Just one of my 20 or so characters has almost 5000 hours and I don't AFK... much.

I just took a look in Highwatch on Kaia, there were 5 other people there.

Imagine a potential returning player loading up and seeing 5 other people in all of Highwatch, they'd think the game was completely dead and log right back out again never to return.

Merging won't save the game, but it might delay the inevitable.

2000+ hours was only in game time on both versions. I also spent 10 years playing it.

I have almost 1300 days played time, and I have never seen a server on Tera so inactive. Even Lake of Tears and Valley of Titans wasn't that dead at merge. Get off your soapbox and just face it, this needs to be done

And for F*** sake you really think there would be nothing but harassment from pvpers, first off all the good pvpers are already on Velik server(myself included) and the harassment does not even exist at all, I don't know where you get your info from, but it seems that you are just blowing smoke.

Obviously you didn't considered the fact of Ganking which is also a form of harassment and also a way to impede the progress of one or a lot of players, (everyone remember Mudkip and the Lumbertown Bridge ? yeah lots of high level players were ganking low level players to raise their infamy.)

Now don't get me wrong, there's no PvP in PvE (except on sundays because CUV...) but if they merge PvP server to PvE and change it to PvP only server, count me out on this... cuz I know for one fact that if ANYONE stand in a place out in the open, that means he's in for a fight.

They won't do that. It would be a PVE server, the reasons are; open world PVP is basically dead and most of the remaining player base are on the PVE server. Also, Ganking has been impossible for a long time now and players used to get banned or suspended for doing it years ago, it qualifies as player griefing which was a violation of the TOS back with EME. I haven't checked GF TOS, but it's irrelevant because the game has made it impossible now.

Do us all a favour (please), just go to Highwatch on Kaia and take a look at the population yourself. You will see why everything you are saying is a non-issue, there is hardly anyone on the PVP server. Even if I accepted your argument about Dual Invite Harassment and that it was somehow exhibited exclusively by people on the PVP server (evil, blood thirsty psychopaths that they are), it would still be irrelevant because there isn't enough people on the PVP server for it to be a problem.

Anyway, most of these terrifying individuals have already transferred to Velik, they walk among us, they trade with us, they run dungeons with us, we may even have them on our friends list and we would never know their dark and horrifying history.
