By the time Green reaches the end of its classic timeline, Blue will be in its 7th year of Velious - almost three* times longer than the entire classic timeline of Green.
Part of the appeal of Green is a fresh start, without all the fungi monks, where classes that have little to no place on Blue, due to item saturation, are suddenly more viable again. Big ticket items, epics, and all the rest, will be far more rare and noteworthy. It would seem to be a waste of the experience just to roll Green into the beta server at the end of its run.
Doesn't really do any good to argue about it, though. We'll find out what their plans are soon enough. But I'm definitely hoping my characters on Green aren't merged into Blue.
*It's closer to 2.5, but whatever. Point still stands.

Don't understand the concern with the economy after the natural timeline has ended. The whole point is to experience the classic timeline. By the end of velious, you've experienced it. There is no use to keep it going, separate, for longer. It is not "classic" to be in velious longer than that, so might as well roll it into blue and start over (or release luclin/custom content). Why have two "post velious" servers with small fragmented populations??
