I really don't get why so many people are eager for server mergers. For a player like me, who operates successful tournament knights on many servers, it would be a disaster. The idea of suddenly facing a "competitor" from a another server, maybe twice as strong or whatever, and not winning anything anymore, is pure horror.
I really pray that GF never takes up this REALLY REALLY BAD idea. It would be the one thing that makes me stop playing BK almost immediately -- simply because 90% of the accounts that I've been bulding over the years would suddenly be completely useless. I play F2P and rely on rubies from tournaments almost everywhere I play, and I play on MANY servers.
I understand why someone with a level 282 account and insane stats would welcome a server merge, though. For him it would simply mean more potential victims. But I'm sure many tournament players, especially the F2Ps, are with me in rejecting this idea vehemently.
So, PLEASE, NO SERVER MERGERS, ever ....

EDIT: What I could probably live with is some form of moderate mergers, not all servers like in BiteFight, but let's say every three servers into one new, for example
en30, en29, en28 --> en 30
en33, en32, en31 --> en 33
en36, en35, en34 --> en 36
and so on ... I'd probably still lose some good tournament winning knights, but at least I'd still have enough useful accounts to keep me motivated...
