The main reason not to merge Green into Blue is because Blue has mechanics that aren't Classic but they didn't want to remove them after so many years (or they did remove them and people complained).

If Green is supposed to be the closer to Classic experience, dumping it into a server with Pet Windows and other Luclin era changes doesn't make much sense.

But the whole reason they decided to allow them is that they were almost classic: both pet windows and custom UI were added just after Luclin's release.

To me keeping one entire extra server just so that it can say one month behind another server seems ... unnecessary.

Green should merge and reset, just like it was originally meant to. I plan on starting up a cleric on the new green when that happens, when we are all back at the bottom and there are folks to level with again.

Also, Green isn't supposed to be a perpetual server so his argument that it shouldn't merge with a server with non-classic mechanics makes no sense.

Green is supposed to be a recycled classic server. It doesn't matter if it merges into Blue because they will do a new Green with classic mechanics.

Only blue player want server to merge, like merging them with save blue but blue is dead.

No real green player want a merge, only bluebies that went on green to farm legacy.

Why would a new player start on green though? Blue items are cheaper and it's the same expansion. Don't think anyone new to green has much of a shot at "warder loot" at this point [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I fully admit that I've been tempted to move to Blue. I don't really have a lot going on Green at the moment aside from the money I've managed to farm and the box of abu-kar that I have here. Don't really have any friends or connections so being able to take part in "the great race" is pretty much out of reach. At this point I guess I'm just kind of waiting on Green 2.0.

This is incorrect. Tonight blue and green were basically the same population in terms of numbers. I recently started playing on Blue again after playing on Green since launch and I can say the current experience on Blue is about the same as Green minus some differences in economy. Both are now too heavy, few lower level leveling groups are available, etc

when green resets I will be there, on green 2.0, leveling a new character all the way up again in a new world full of excited players who cheer and holler for Cracked Staff drops, the first FBSS, etc. it will be so much fucking fun again to play this game with a bunch of people. the only thing I will miss is the ability to roll an iksar at the start, my favorite race. However, bards get an iksar mask, so I'll just do that
