Oh yes i have resubbed, Why would i re-sub at such a delicate time of the games lifespan.
Because i believe a game with a community as devoted as this one, the game that serves the community cannot die.
I have ideas which will work if everyone agrees to it.
Firstly: One Server: Population would increase to a new high, of what players are left, it would be like the good old days, i know everyone may not have a charactor on every server, but i say that's lucky for them as they get to relive the entire experience of when they first had the game, and the missioned with fellow Newbies.
Which server would be decided by a debate.
Secondly: With the server population increased it would make the community more alive again, PvP orientated players would return knowing that the PvP has returned to the game once again, more players to RP with bringing back the RP'ers to the game, Who needs a storyline when you can make your own, the game has the content to do so, All it needs is creative minds which i believe this game has got.
Thirdly: Bring in players who would act as LESIG having organasational meetings and such, events can be organised by these people of each org.
I believe that we can make this game alive again, all we need to do is band together there is more then enough players on all three servers, to make 1 server which will then be as alive as ever..
If i had to put my opinion into this i'd say Vector should be the server.. I don't have a charactor on vector but even then i know it's the most appealing to everyone, even RP would be better with an element of PvP to it, As long as people don't abuse...
I hope you all agree with me, Let's start picking a server

Yeah, Vector's obviously the most appealing server, seeing as though it's got the lowest population!
Anyone else notice that it's the PvPers who most want a server merge? I have no problem with a server merge, if the final server is a non-hostile one. I don't pvp, so I fail to see why your playstyle should be forced on me.

I'd be happy with any server merge at this point, 3 to 2 or 3 to 1. I don't care anymore if it's PvE, PvP or Mixed. That being said, the least likely would be 1 PvP server.
You should bring this discussion & your ideas over to the Merge thread:

I've said it before that the PvP community wants this merge. I'm not worried about it though. This game will be cancelled before they merge the last 3 servers we have.

Wow, i was just saying my opinion, You don't have to PvP on a PvP server, there is no law...
I was just giving my own opinion like i said the server would be debated by the players
Aslong as everyone joins one server, (not like a server merge is going to happen) It will have to be a manual merge by the players themselves.. Since i doubt the devs will do this..
If you don't want to join the pvp server, then join Syntax or Recursion, the obvious choice would be Syntax as it already is the most populated...
We still need more people for this to work though..

Mm, you don't have to PvP on a PvP server, but then there's always the sorts who jump lowbies at hardlines, which is one reason I tend to shy away from Vector.

Not sure what you mean by manual merge by the players themselves. Like /copychar over to say, Syntax? Or are you talking about GG, lol, roll up a new character on the server everyone decides upon?
If the former, there would need to be a dev or devs to implement this no matter what. Some say its too complicated, I say it shouldnt be that hard at all since there already is that /copychar command.

I would roll up on Vector, but I just don't have the time. It's not worth it with the skimpy population at the moment, anyway.
Im not saying to make a charactor on vector i am saying the community as a whole should make a charactor on one single server and use that server as THE server, to keep the population at a high, Increased population = better everything! =D
So just forget which server we just need everyone to agree to it.

It would be nice if this could happen, but not everyone is going to want to level a character to 50 if they don't already have one on the agreed-upon server... Especially in the light of the fact there are no devs at the moment.

From what I've heard (someone please correct me if I have this wrong) but Walrus said at the anniversary party that SOE plans on keeping the three servers and even if they decided to make MXO one server there is no one to do the transferring. It is cheaper and more cost efficient for SOE to just let things be then go through the hassle of transferring characters to one new mega server.
Outside of that if there was by some chance a server merge I do not know if it would be the best...first you have the hostile server/pvp debate (I personally do not care of pvp and would not enjoy being killed simply for the juvenile entertainment of someone with nothing better to do) and then there is the issue if MXO could handle that many people on one server. Once again, please correct me if I'm wrong about this but I've heard that the servers are incredibly unstable as is and getting a high population can easily cause the server to crash.

That said, welcome back, fella!
You don't always get jumped on vector unless you go to some sort of stupid hl such as mara c, at the moment that's the only possible place you could possibly get jumped but if this suggested server would be made PvP then like you said there are always the odd few >_>
I think we all know who they would be >.<
Edit: oh and welcome back

Sorry man but many of us have invested literally 4 years on a main character on one server, aquired all the rare gear, did all the archive missions, built up factions, made longstanding relationships, etc. so are not willing to start over from scratch.
I agree with you though that a single server would improve things dramatically in light of where we're at! I just think a copychar would be the best option.
