I canceled my account, and only have three days left to say this.
I have met several EE ATSers and have found the European English speakers to be mature, kind, helpful, and sweet. Top rate kind of people you all are (man not saying YALL was hard *twitch*).
From my heart I hope this merger goes smoothely. The NA server has some GREAT people left on it, and yes, like other things American...we have our issues (after all we are the great grand kids of the rebelious lot that left yall roughly 260 years ago *smirk*), but the hearts of all I have known from Windy are in the right place.
I left not due to people in game, Living Planet Defenders are GOOD people, kind helpful, and on and on. I just can not handle being an Explorer type in an Explorer UNfriendly game. This is the FIRST game that I have not been able to travel solo in, out of more than a dozen games either played or betaed.
I am sending wished of blessings and glitch free merger. If anyone wants or needs the names Lorris or Ferra, OR Lyrah. Please PM me on THIS forum BEFORE midnight April first (my account expires that day) and I will log onto game and delete those character to NOT conflict with your name.
May the sun shine softly on your path, the rain fall lightly on your crops, and you find a warm place to rest during the snow, and may you find warm friends there to great you.
Merry meet, merry part and blessed be
Best wishes on the merger
Re: Best wishes on the merger
yeah, and then you have the explorer in a "nothing relevant to explore" world. Ive goten that feeling alot.. and it made me try another game for like a month to rest, but now Im back and hope they will change it in time. The only reason I feel for myself to "explore" is the minimal chanche of finding a stunning beautiful place that really looks nice. Because that is what you can hunt more or less, nice views. (materials and boss mobs, yeah its something atleast)
As someone wrote in the "upcoming changes" thread. The issue about solving a possible low-population problem by merging 2 continents instead of adressing the popularity of the game and the reasons why it is like that...
Well, it feels wrong if this was what caused the merge. Because it will make the situation worse in my mind, since more people will compete about the few crumbles in the game that people allready have left the game for. Because the stuff was not enough to still their hunger for content.

Re: Best wishes on the merger
I explore for the same reason I live to travel. I can't do overseas travels now, but as a child I was blessed with a chance to visit Mexico, Canada, and was helped by a fund raiser to go to London and Ireland.
For me exploring a game world tells me ALOT about the developer/artist that designed the world. I enjoy seeing the sky and clouds and the changing world around me. In real world travel part of that is "meeting the native" of where ever I am visiting. Nothing like meeting a local to find out the HEART of the land.
I have spent HOURS running around other game worlds. In EQ I was known for keeping two or three coffins in my bank...even though I was a druid...therefore could NOT use them, because I would run around areas where I could not HOPE to kill a mob, or even land a root to run from them. I saw MOST of western wastes before it became a raided or hunted zone (less than a week post Velious release).
I have taken to beta testing other games just to get my exploring fix. Rose online, What a JOKE of a game, but it has a large world to run around it, and I have managed to get into several areas WAY over my level. I have yet to find a way onto their moon, but...soon.
I also have applied to two other beta tests, got on a short list for one. Since that game has an explorer class and boasts a world of more than 50k km...I think that should feed my explorer fix...even tho it IS a PVP game...and I am not a PVPer.
I have had a few discussion with other explorer types on the NA server and they seem to think that I am being weak when I say travel on Atys is the hardest I have EVER experienced in more than 16 game worlds so far. But they LIKE the "challange" for me...it being difficult to impossible to avoid agro is the biggest part of the problem for me.
Blessings and smoothe merger.
