Now there should never really be a merger, or might as well merge all three(blue,green,teal) when they do decide to do it.

I just took it as a given that it wasn't allowed, but honestly I'm surprised anyone would argue for boxing.

The logical thing to conclude from Rogean's post is that they will merge right before releasing Kunark. This means people who aren't dedicating all their characters to raid guilds can play both servers at the same time, farm lists, lock down easy camps like AC etc knowing they'll eventually get that character back.

It may seem like barely anyone would do this, but I'd bet it's higher than you might think. Not catastrophically so, but still meaningful, and more importantly meaningless to allow it.

Not sure why anyone thought this was like a made up concern pre-split. You have always been able to do this on p99 servers and tons of people will do it for Green and teal

All that's happened is you're giving the hardcore players 2x the chance to get limited edition loot.

Make it one or the other. Got a dude on green, can't play teal and visa versa.
Maybe...you need to take a breath...or a coffee..or some vacation...its just a fucking game men !!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a fair point the servers are gonna be merged that one should not be allowed to level on both simultaneously

It makes sense to only allow play on one server, as Teal is effectively just a long-term instance of Green designed to relieve pressure of overcrowding.

The above statement that "they're going to be merged again, which means all the cash and items will be merged as well" should make it crystal clear that you'd be effectively two boxing the entire time til they merged, which does jack the economy a bit.

More importantly, it does not shit to alleviate pressure on Green if even just 1/4 of the folks on Teal are also playing Green, which is totally likely.

Multiple clients on servers that will never interact doesn't have these problems.

I don't think we should allow boxing because then I have to play two servers in order to properly deny pixels.

Seriously though, none of those legacy items are even that good. But if there's 100 more manastones then I have to rmt mine for $5 less in a few years when I'm homeless because all the shit filled socks finally got my house condemned.

This was always going to be the case (it has always been the case with all P99 servers that you can play on multiple servers simultaneously), and when it was brought up as one of the reasons not to split the server all you people went "MUH BUT MY EXP IS SLOW RIGHT NOW!" Well, you guys got what you wanted with splitting the servers and now you have to deal with it.
