I saw much more topics like merge us pls than do not merge, those second started apear after they announced merges. So you asked few people cant decide for everyone.

Did you even read the post? I continue to say, people wanted merges but not these overboard merge dumpsā¦ā¦ they wanted to be merged into other servers at the same progression rate haha
I guess pride is more important.
Good to know you are willing to derail your own topic cause you got your feelings hurt. That is what my point was about and you proven it twice.
I never brought up population. You did cause you needed something else to fall back on due to your topic faltering.
Now stop derailing your own topic, and get back to it.
But they did, look at these merges and those servers. With few exceptions they merged small servers into 1 bigger and the outcome is healthy populated server. Look at Aaru, 5 small servers into 1. Abaton, exactly the same, Tir Na Nog, exactly the same.
Agreed!
Quite happy Pyrallis got merged. After the hype of the merge, the traffic is tolerable.
What does it mean Same progression and how to check it ? What benchmarks? And who said that did you ask people who are not active in forum ? Cuz if 100 people dont want it it doesnt mean that 2000 people who are not active here also did not want to be a part of big community.

You add no substance to the topic except to troll.
How toxic! Please stop derailing
OT
If you look at Valhalla, it was a med-low population. After Pyrallis and 3 others merged it was hopping for a bit. Luckily no queue. Now, after the merge hype? All sorts of traffic Pyrallis never got. I can even get many T5 things that was not available when Pyrallis was dead. But itās not crowded. I can farm high tier resources without a worry of grievers or bots,
Just for context could you please define what you would call a Low, Medium and High Pop server?
I was on Caer Sidi which had around 100 players on during active hours. It merged into Abaton along with a few others and regularly has around 1000 players during active hours. I personally am happy with this amount as I can now get groups for Expeditions.
As the server limit is 2000 I would class Abaton as Medium Population.
Logic says progression was uneven. You have servers where players in control of territories are making millions of gold a week. They then have tons of gear created and most of these controlling company players have BiS. These same servers sell M10 runs to help max GS of players, with multiple specs. Tons of other differences that put large servers ahead on progression/player difference.
The low pop servers had to pay out of pocket to upkeep all towns. Most end game players spent most of their time doing invasions to try and keep t5 stalls. TP not overflowed with legendarys/BiS gear so if a player was 600+ they gear wasnāt at the par of large servers.
On top of this large servers have been having wars constantly for months, where small servers never have seen a true large scale war unless they were OG. So instead of putting all there players on different servers they put them in with the high pop servers that are way more advanced creating a goal that will never be reached for most players.
Again if they would have merged small servers into eachother, they could have created a very healthy server for those players to progress together. Instead the discouraged a lot of those players from continuing. Iām the long run this hurts us all, as we could have had player count continuing to rise, more servers for new players to join return to if/when expansions hit.
They will buy their BIS gear in next few weeks whats the problem ā¦ everything will stabilize after 2-3 weeks, so now u will have less problems than you had in low pop servers and least every station will be t5, Merged already happened and you cant change it, as I said you cant decide for everyone, most wanted merged, same like most players dont care about territories, wars who is winning etc they just want have people to play with. For example me my fraction can have no territory I dont care dont need them to craft, gather, gank people, bullying or do OPRs, I just want to find fast people to do dungeon and fast matchmakin for OPR.

They did this. Most small servers were merged together with other small servers. Man, look at these merges, seriously.

They have not noticed it or choose not to for the sake of their side of the argument. Then when they derail cause no one supports their point, they get toxic.
They will not see anything against their argument as anything else but lies. Even if the truth is officially posted.
The merges were beneficial to the players as a whole. Pyrallis was stuck in low population that could do nothing but see the map wither away. Now? Valhalla merge was perfect. After the merge hype, things are settling nice.
So futher discussion is pointless as I checked full thread nobody supports you, so your opponion is in minority, if u dont accept merges quit game. Thats all you can do or enjoy with new community, and stop speakin for everyone topicās name suggest you feel allowed to speak for everyone. You are not.

They merged all small servers into servers of 1000+ pops. Man look at the mergesā¦
Yes, they merged 5 small servers into a 1 bigger 1000 people server, makes sense 
if you merge 5 servers with 200 peak it usually means there will be 5x200 peak = 1000.
Im pointing out weāre losing player base. No need to have you three agree. Yāall know new world is losing players, a lot of previous decisions have been horrible for player base, and this latest move just topped it off for a lot of people.
Iāll continue to enjoy the game and just play OPR. Those who wanted to gather, quitā¦.those who wanted to compete and couldnātā¦. Quitā¦. Those who ran expeditions hundreds of times and have no other end gameā¦. Quitā¦ gonna be the end soon so enjoy it while you can. Ignorance must be sweet, hope yāall donāt invest to much time in a dying game, yāall gonna shit your pants when servers close. Bet your tone will change then 
That statement shows you have no idea what youāre talking about lol. All small servers were merged into a large server of ~1000 players.
There was not a single server where small servers only merged. Youāre a funny one, just throw shit at the wall and hope something sticks why donāt ya.
You talk about server, yet not name yours. What was your server? I am very curious about your bias answers.
4 other servers were merged into Aaru which averaged 395 players before merge. You seriously think it isnāt a small server? 
4 other servers were merged into Tir Na Nog which averaged 330 players before merge.
5 other servers were merged into Abaton which averaged 450 people before merge.
Are you seriously saying Aaru, Tir Na Nog and Abaton were ālarge 1000 players serversā before merge?
