  1. If we all stopped playing, and paying our subs. Then they would simple close the EU servers and forget about the EU side.
  2. Mine would be "The Huggable..."

    Anyway, that's my rant off.
    I agree 100%. I see so many kids aged 16-21 that have absolutely no idea how to do something as simple as wash up, or mop a floor or polish. I was once asked how to work a hoover, I could hear a loud noise and it took me a while to realise that it was my brain screaming with the stupidity of the question.

    I have enough trouble keeping up with this board. Why do I need another rehashing the same ground?
    'Waaaaa, other people have made a forum that I don't want to take part in, waaaaa'.
  7. I wont be on for a while due to an issue with my comps power supply. I'm currently trying to get a replacement but no idea how long it will take. I'm using my sisters computer to post this, which is so weak it has problems running the first The Sim's game!
    Keep DE under control while I'm gone Spawnus.

    Have fun and see you soon hopefully!

    Admittedly, I didn't go out of my way to find people, I just flew around Atlas, King's Row & the Hollows, but (to me at least) 'the number of people who have nothing better to do than stand under the Atlas statue' is as valid an indicator of population as any other.

    I logged in at the free weekend because I was starting to miss the game after being away for a year, I was ready to come back, but resubbing to the EU servers right now would feel like a waste of my money; there's no way I'll be buying GR in the EU if things don't change.

    I've moved (for how long I don't know) to Virtue (yes I know it's one of the more populated servers, it's why I'm there), which feels like Defiant from 3 years ago; if I want a team (and I do, which is why I'm not in CO), I ask in broadcast and get one - instantly - so far. I spent the whole of yesterday in PUGs and it was like I'd never left.

    At the end of the day, character names, Vet rewards supergroup bases & inf reserves mean nothing if the game isn't any fun.

    This game is huge amounts of fun when there are people to play with.

    Please merge the server lists.

    1) They were talking about the test servers.
    2) What time did you log in to find that few players?
    3) Character names, Vet rewards and Super/Threat Group names and bases do mean a lot to the majority of the EU population. They are what they find fun about the game.
    4) Yes, please merge the server LISTS.

    If it was the EU servers, everyone on the game would be suffering lag. I and many others have had -zero- problems since maintenance.

    Thank you.

    When did I nit pick at your post? And I'm not saying the opposite, I said I agreed we need a server list merge. Read my post before you bother replying to it please. Especially before you insult me.

    I don't see why it would kill off the servers. As Fury said, a lot of people are loyal to their EU servers, including yourself according to your sig. I wouldn't leave defiant. I'd prob move a few old 50s to another server and keep playing on Defiant. That's where my SG and VG is, that's where all my friends are. And players NA side will visit our servers due to curiosity and for the extra slots, I have read on these forums that fact myself. (I can't remember where, I think it was one of the many 'merge the server' threads).

    Merge the servers already.
    Because his post wasn't in the least constructive? He's basically whining and shouting the same thing that has been said and asked for over and over again. Not going to do anything is it? I also think a server LIST merge is needed, but I'm not going say that and repeat and agree with people over and over. As out point has been made enough times to be heard, and WW already knows what we want.

    Also, dead means no life. I wish people would stop using that term. 1 person isn't dead. 0 people is dead.

    God that server is packed.

    Obviously no more players needed there.
    About 200 now combined. Not counting hidden, or people who only play during the day, or people of on their easter holidays, or people out having Friday night fun. Yes it needs more people, but its not as badly populated as you make it out to be.

    Pretty much agree.

    They will be torn apart like a lump of meat thrown into a pack of hungry wolves.

  24. I unleashed because of the very reason Westly stated above. To talk about issues you can't talk about here. Also because trolls are dealt with a lot more swiftly there. NOTHING is off topic on PU, which is the biggest draw for me, its a 'Life general Discussion Forum'.
