I'm still having fun. Shrug. Given the opt-in id split them till legacy items are removed.

Sometimes i leave the char select screen up or leave a lvl 1 mule logged in for day's. I find it fun boosting pop nbrs.

Fun is relative n subjective
Split so people can simultaneously farm legacy items on two servers at once

I was loving Teal! Idk if it's a random coincidence but I've found my interest in Everquest waning ever since the merge. I used to play a few hrs every day and now I only log in on the weekends and the last few weekends I haven't been enjoying myself. I've actually been contemplating quitting entirely. Which is crazy coming from me...EQ been part of my life in some shape or form the last 20+ years.

Is it time to end the quest?

Guessing that's a coincidence unless you are quitting because you think things are too crowded

100% had more fun before merge.


I've been trying to sum up my personal feelings in a colloquial manner and the best I can do is..... Imagine you are a kid playing board games one night with your family. Everyone is relaxed - laughing and having a good time and picking on each other in a loving way.

The next day, a car accident happens. Your parents are now dead. You didn't see it coming.

You now live at your Uncle Jerry's house, who is rumored to be a pedophile. Uncle Jerry insists the rumors are not true.. but you don't like the idea of getting poked in the butt so you and your siblings move very cautiously around the house. Everyone is on edge and the laughter is gone. You miss home.

Well that analogy was totally unhelpful without any context as to why specifically you don't like the merge. Are you one of the people who just wants to go to the high ZEM zones or farm the most valuable items/cash camps and you aren't having fun because you think it's too crowded because you can't do whatever you want whenever you want?

Missing an option should have never been 2 servers as its overpopulating legacy items and never had the pop to support 2 servers.

I think its a wash for me... More people can be fun but less can also be better in situations. The tunnel is a lot more lively which is nice. Meeting new people and seeing new guilds has been fun. But I already have my main leveled and geared so its a little more chill leveling alts...

The analogy is a progression of feelings. Relaxation, Fun, Laughter.. followed by Trama, Distrust, Feeling of Loss, Heartbrokenness.

Please don't take it personally. I don't feel like sparring or having intentions projected on. How I feel is just how I feel. Loramin asked for personal thoughts. You can feel free to disagree.

I VERY deliberately phrased the question to be about how people feel personally, too try and get honest reactions. I mean, the point of a poll (if you're being genuine) is to determine exactly that, right? How a bunch of people feel?

There's no "right or wrong" to feelings, so if anyone is offended, or goes into "attack mode", because an Internet stranger honestly shared ... maybe question why it does that?
