Ok, once you provide proof that as you claim, everyone on every light server feels this way, you will get a possible affection gain, but until then, I believe your "facts" are coming from the same place you appear to be talking from.

And the thing is, even if they are right, and population on light servers are as bad as they say they are, then the total number of people still playing on light servers is insignificant to that of the other servers... right?

Lord Calypho is nearly dead or so it seems. 200-250 people between 3 and 11 pm on both fleets.

So we judge a game based on how many people are logged in idling in a sanctuary doing nothing but standing around?

You must not be very good at math.


5 or so servers with 2500 is not close to 50-100 light/standard servers with 500 each.
Meanwhile, in Tera general chat -

Go to the server page and LOOK at how many light servers there are. Mine's one of them, it's a server I chose in early game access. There is no reason that One server The Fatman is Heavy, and a handful more are sitting at standard.... but the majority are light.
Sure there is a reason.

People are re-rolling to servers they feel are more populated. Just because you're content to stay on a light server doesn't mean everyone will be of similar mind...

I suspect many people made the same value judgments that I did... low population seems to be affecting game play... server mergers are unlikely... server transfers are on the way, but will take some amount of time to be completed... so the four options are:

1) Stay where you are and wait for transfers
2) Re-roll on a new server while waiting for transfers
3) Cancel until transfers are provided
4) Cancel and go away

Option 1 isn't acceptable to me because of many of the reasons posted in this thread.

Options 3 and 4 aren't really acceptable to me, as I'm too interested in the game and having too much fun, even starting over at low levels.

Congratulations, Option 2. We have a winner!

But only you can make the best choice for you. You know what you want most, and you will choose accordingly.

Just be aware... you are choosing one of those 4 options, whether you realize it or not.

Daniel touched on this briefly during the Legacy Panel.

"When character transfers come, which is not in the immediate future..."

From 22:24 onwards.

"Not in the immediate future" doesn't sound like this month.
