No. I don't think they have. When you are trying to please people, it's best to ask them first what they want. For names I don't think mandatory word names would have been anyones idea. What is easiest for something you really can't change later doesn't sound liek a trying their best situation either. Do you think the top thing on RP peoples lists was a chat channel? For that they could promise to work on something later, but all I have heard is crickets. I'm not askign to include flying mounts, open leveling systems and a pet pokemon game. I'm saying the name system they have choosen is one of the worst ideas i have heard of to implement into a game with currently existing players who paid for name reservation.Is the merger over all a good thing. Yes. Do I think they could put a little more effort in and please more people yes.

I figured as much. But with all the puzzle pieces being fit into a new shape I figured there was a chance that something didn't fit anymore so I thought it'd be best to ask lest my analogy collapse under its own weight.

More accurately it's stopped being anything else...

I'm not sure if you're aware of what moving to the megaservers entails. All the data is being merged. There isn't an option of allowing people to transfer over at their leisure. Regarding #2, They've already given everyone a few weeks to transfer over to higher population servers, for the purpose of doing exactly what you're suggesting.

In The Nexus Report (the thread TheRedViper69 mentioned), they hinted at the possibility of free trials, but in any case, it seems like whatever they're going to do will be after a major round of bug fixes. For some reason it's not letting me link to the thread, but it's in the Q&A section in the first post (4th pinned thread as of this posting).

I'm just thinking forward to events like Thaydfest and knowing that, while we may be annoyed by trolls, we'll also be annoying the general population by flooding chat. The /say distance is pretty incredible. Regardless, I'm not entirely sure that moving all RP to housing isn't another way to get stuffed in a corner. I'm just saying that if we had an option to section off an instance phase for ourselves for events and such, we'd avoid a lot of potential issues. Honestly, whether the RP community survives isn't necessarily my biggest concern at the moment, it's whether the game is going to survive. As much as I like RP, the only reason I know a lot of RPers left was that they feared the megaserver implementation would lead to major trolling and there wasn't a way around it.

I'm not the one you have to tell that to, Olivar. I'm still here, and no RP phasing isn't likely to make me quit. The reason I bring this up is twofold: A:  there are a LOT of roleplayers who left for specifically this reason. Whether they are valuable to us or not as you see them, if that brings them back, I'm all for it. B:  there are a lot of non-roleplayers who, right now, aren't dealing with the text flood from /say, /emotes, et al because they aren't on an RP server. As you well know, I very rarely make suggestions about the things I personally want. I'm just heading this off as an issue because confrontation is bound to happen, especially if the population post-megaservers experiences a drastic rise. I should also, at this point, bring up that if you're in an open world with phasing, and RPers are spread between them unable to see each other, you're going to dilute the community regardless unless we're all syncing to the same phase anyway, so I'm not sure how terrible of an idea it would be for the community to at least be able to collect on the same phase.

To that I can reply that the system will remain the same. PvE/PvP Megaserver from the same region will still be put in queue together. So NA PvE and PvP players on one side, EU PvE and PvP players on the other side.

Names aren't shared :)
