They could never merge cause most, not all, of us have max toons lsots filled on blue under same accounts as green. So unless they open account slots for characters to 16, it cant occur

Server has no limitation to how many characters are on an account. Its a client limitation that it only displays the top 8 in alphabetical order.

If they did merge and you had 9+ chars on one account, you would have to delete characters to see the deeper ones

Join the p99 discord to follow up on news, groups or speak with a representative of the server.

You should really go read what staff has said on things before speaking incorrectly

If there was a merge, how do they handle the duplicate character names that exist on both servers?

They Don't, one of the many reasons why there will never be a merge

I thought green and blue shared account names and char names. Or had some mechanism to prevent duplicated names precisely to enable any future merges.

Nope, if you have a toon named Blormtgort on blue, you are able to make the same named toon on that account only on green or red

It's likely handled the same way live did it with their merges/splits over the years. Duplicate names get an "x" at the end, and any toons beyond the # of char slots are buried in the list until you delete a character to free up the slot. Just like vendor mining.

One would hope they'd increase the # of char slots, but /shrug if the version they're running supports that. A simple workaround would be to allow transfers to new accounts, but we all know it would be abused - so we're stuck with clearing slots ourselves.
