Then how do your posts in regard to the zeth merge have such a lack of logic and reasoning?

Wow, great argumentation.

Claims my ideas lack logic...

...provides ZERO reasoning behind the statement.

Again, if you don't want to play on Zeth, roll on another realms. Zeth is:

a) Doing good so far. Insignificant population decrease is normal for relatively fresh realms - some people tend to register, play a bit and turn back to their old realms;

b) Far more populated than many other Classic servers seen by me. 500 low is "dead"? No. 300 peak (and 200 of them are lvl60) is "dead".

a) Yeah man, you're totally right! losing 12% of the population every single week is insignificant...

b) Don't worry man, as seen in the above picture if the following trend continues it WILL soon be in YOUR definition of "dead". I'm just trying to open your fucking eyes before it gets to that.

Some may not want to admit it but Diz is right. Zeth is dieing and it needs to be put down. Its in the best interest of the servers and project to keep those players so transfers is the only thing that makes sense. After all would YOU want to transfer to a near dead server on a steady decline? Of course not.

The only question left is how to manage the transfers. They could all go to Elysium being merged in and be done with it. This is the easiest solution for Elysium because they could simply copy over all characters at a set date to Elysium and be done with it. However this doesn't address issues that some of the people went PvP over the hype of a *new* server but didn't expect pvp to be what it is and all its griefing and drama and hate it. Those would people very much rather go to Darrowshire which also severely needs a pop boost even if just a few hundred go. Some people as well are just bored with the state of progress on Zeth and Elysium wouldn't fix that where Darrowshire is the mid point and Anathema is the far progressed one.

 

This means the best solution is allowing a transfer token system where on X date accounts are saved and allowed to be transfered to server of choice at a one time window. More work for Elysium staff of course but it provides the best longer term solution to all 3 servers and retaining players.

Yeah for sure would be more work for them and would have to be executed well.  You then have the accounts from players that WILL miss this window of if a token system were implemented.

So IF it is a chose your server type of transfer option, those whom do not take this option after X amount of time could be moved to Elysium systematically.

I still hold firm on my believe that the community will get an update on this soon, since the lease for that server is set to expire next month.    Though 3+ more weeks of no word could continue the negative trend.   On the flip side, they can't show their hand too early or it will result in a mass of people jumping to that server to either 1: Level alts they know they can transfer later to avoid the difficulties they may find on another server, 2: excessively farm too much of certain items to gain a competitive edge on their future realm. 

Keep your heads held high ZK people.   I'm sure you guys will hear something before too long.
