Merging and recycling is the only viable option that won't kill the project. Neckbeard pixel addicts have threatened to leave if they ever do that, but I think that's a big bluff considering almost all of them certainly quit live EQ at some point in the past and vowed never to play again, probably multiple times, then woops they neckbearded out on p99 as soon as it was available. A fresh green server would *guaranteed* be heavily populated, even if a handful of people have tantrums and "quit". They'll be back.
