Consolidated Post: APAC/Oceanic Server Concerns

I suppose one thing I see is PVP players wanting to either be merged to Dalborra or Gav Daragon, provided they are made into PVP servers, which is wrong, because PVE players and RPers should be allowed to be in the evnvironment they want to have.

Same goes for PVP players. They should not be merged to say Dalborra and have the option of world PVP taken from them.

I just don't see how a merger of the three Oceanic servers is feasible? PVE, PVP and RP all exist in their own little bubbles. RP player think they are the only ones who care about names, well they are wrong. I have seen PVP players say if they are merged to Dalborra then it should be changed to a PVP server and they will gank people out doing quests. That is wrong to the people who rolled on a PVE server. And lastly people roll on a RP server because they want that in their game, and I have seen on occasion, them get made fun of by others who don't understand their RP needs.

So I suppose I don't see how you think this will work, it kinda can't. The three groups of players are to disparate. They just couldn't all get what they want from being in the same place. And I don't think one group should suffer cause another wants something different, and they would have been forced to move to a server that doesn't support their personal way of playing.

My two bits to all this.

Since your server is doing so well can you kindly remove yourself from this thread? Thanks.

Like I said, I wouldn't be here if the people posting in this thread would simply be honest and explain it's only about the pvp server, and not the rp and pve servers.

I will post where I like, and have the opinions I want to have - this is a forum, which means we are allowed to discuss things here.

I play mostly on the pve server and sometimes on the rp server... i still want mergers as neither of these come close to the experience available on US severs...

You may be content but i am not.. and neither of us knows what the rest of the pve and rp players want

Also:
- there is a /ignore function for ******es who are present in any server of any game
- the buggy flagging mechanic will surely be fixed by the time they think about merging us

The aggressive behaviour of the pvp server people in this thread is a pretty good indication of why any merge to a pve server will not work.

Refer to my edit

The buggy flagging hasn't been fixed since game was in beta...what makes you think they'll suddenly fix it for the sake of one server?

Have you compared the AP RP and PVE servers to the NA and EU recently? You call standard servers for a FTP fine? LOL

The increase percentage-wise is comparable to some of the US servers (around .25). The ONLY server losing numbers is the Oceanic pvp server.

Oceanic pve and rp servers also regularly hit standard population now during the peak hours.

Because I have faith that one switched-on BW employee thinks "hey seeing as how we are merging a pve and pvp server, shouldn't we think about fixing the flagging mechanic?"

If not im sure the CS reps will get several hundred bug reports and complaints from victims.

And if it STILL isn't fixed then i believe paid transfers will be in place by that time and players who are really irritated by it can jump to another server. Not optimal i know but hey still better than playing on a low pop server.. imagine being able to get a group for a heroic on a random mid level planet.. would be amazing

Also: there will be good with the bad. I'm sure some pvp players are not aggressive manaics that derive pleasure from killing lower level toons 24/7. Some will be a valued addition to the communitee
