This has probably been brought up to no end but I'm going to mention it anyways. A lot of people ask when AC 'died.' I think it began when they introduced housing and marketplace because for me the social aspect evaporated. No one hung out at town's or subway anymore and that was some of my favorite parts of the game. It's too late (and maybe impossible) to remove those things now but would a server consolidation at least bring what players are left together to create a more socially active game? Or would it be too depressing?

Now when I play I'll recall mansion and there will be 5 or 6 people (toons anyway) there and that's more than there is in any town at any given moment usually. I miss the old days of activity!

Turbine have through the years stated that its not possible to merge the servers. Each Object in the world have a unique id, in a merge there would be collisions. I'm sure there are theories about how that could be handled, but id just live with what they say. They could start close down servers and force people to change to a new server. Which I'm sure people would love (hehe)! But it would most likely mean the death (te real one) of AC. I miss the glory-days of AC (some of it, i can live w/o the massive amount of griefers and thiefs) but its not going to come back, not even if we merged the servers (actually, we might get more griefers and thiefs again...).
