If you make it harder to leave, you make the player feel forced into continuing a crappy situation, which just causes them to become extremely bitter.<br /><br />My old guild mostly transfered to a higher pop server, as I said, and I was left feeling that I HAD to remain in that dead guild to keep my perks and reputation rewards. It was hell, and no fun at all, but I HAD to stay there becuase I felt like I did.<br /><br />Tune thta up a notch to HAVING to stay on a dead server, and you have some major problems. Can't leave? might as well just quit then. Just exacerbates the problem. No, there's major issues with merging servers for sure, but the current system is worse, and making it harder to transfer is not a solution at all.Elladrionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08404376507635994015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619335672953217109.post-71820942782452497712011-11-23T11:42:46.373-08:002011-11-23T11:42:46.373-08:00The idea of merging has its appeal just from a pop...The idea of merging has its appeal just from a population standpoint, but the logistics of that happening scare me. I don't care so much for the economy changing as some things become cheaper and others more expensive.<br /><br />But what happens to players/guilds with the same name?<br /><br />I'd rather transferring be harder to do so people can't leave as easily, maybe something like it's easy to transfer off a High population server, but hard to leave a Low pop one. That way you can't compound the issue with people leaving because an increasily small population.Hanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12020803566446071455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3619335672953217109.post-78571724867876468692011-11-23T08:48:11.107-08:002011-11-23T08:48:11.107-08:00Dethecus is in the exact same boat, it's dishe...Dethecus is in the exact same boat, it's disheartening to say the least. Used to be medium-high pop server for the longest time, decent progression, good players leaving and forming new raiding guilds as drama broke up old ones. Good choice of raiding guilds to match your style.<br /><br />Started dying in late wrath when the top horde guild decided to quit and move on to other games. Cataclysm launched and the 2nd best guild broke up, the 3rd's (my own guild at the time) raid team transerred off server and the remaining skeleton of aguild withered away. We haven't had a 25m raiding guild since mid T11, and my current guild is now the defualt #1 as others keep transferring away. Not becuase we're the best, but becuase we're all that is left. I log in during prime time and there's 20 people in orgrimmar total. No pugs get run anymore. It's a sad, pathetic shell of the server it once was, and only the fact that my guild is so awesome keeps me from transferiing to a high pop server.<br /><br />I really really hope blizz bites the bullet, admits that so many small servers are having these problems and merges a few of themElladrionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08404376507635994015noreply@blogger.com
