As most of you know, most of the recent servers are dead. Do you think they should merge a few of them? Perhaps marge 4 dead servers into 2 semi lively servers, or just jumble em all? MapleSEA has done it before, since they realized two of their servers were dead and decided to merge them to give the server a healthier growth rate (while giving them more channels in the process). So something like this is entirely possible, but should they do it in gMS?
I'm unsure how the population is for other servers such as Marida, Kradia, or Bellocan or whatever, but for a while I've always considered they should at least merge Yellonde and Demethos, since I believe those are the two most dead servers out there. As a Yellonde player, I can confirm it's extremely dead here and it's very rare to bump into another player unless you're on channel one. It almost feels like I bought Maple Story as a 1-player videogame and I'm the only one there. Sure it may be nice to have an extremely low chance of KSing and have more bosses to myself, but overall it's bad for the server as a whole.
What do you think? Do you think gMS should merge some of their dead servers into a slightly more lively server? How do you think the merging should go, just Yellonde and Demethos? Two other servers? Three in one? Leave it be?
EDIT: I actually meant worlds, like Yellonde and Scania. Not things like merging gMS and MSEA.

I thought the last time one of the Nexon's did something like this, they deleted all the accounts and told the people to start over.

Demethos and Yellonde could be merged, otherwise, I think the rest are... full enough.

Did this ever happen to GMS? :f6:
Aren't you talking about the merging between CMS and HKMS?
Because otherwise I think I missed it (and I've played for 3 years)

Yeah, but it was the wiping of beta tespia like three and a half years ago, lol.
Yellonde looks like it could use a merge.

I think Yellonde and Deme could both use a boost, and merging would be pretty good for them. Kradia and Mardia I think are doing ok as is. They could sustain more people, but even with more channels it would be annoying to have more competition with bosses like HH and stuff. The economy seems like it could use more stuff. Because Mardia and Kradia are bigger than Deme and Yello, they could do Deme with Kradia and Yello with Mardia. That way it wouldn't be too crowded in Kradia or Mardia, and Yello and Deme could get a significant boost.
What I think would be interesting is letting everyone in Deme, Yello, Kradia, and Mardia vote on whether or not they would like to be merged with their corresponding server.

It happened while moving from Beta to the current GMS. Otherwise, not really.

Mhm. I honestly couldn't care less what happens to the little servers. I just do NOT want more servers. Frickin' fill up the small ones first, goodness. I think Scania, Bera, Broa and Windia should just be closed (at least Scania and Bera) and force entry into the other servers.

I would say no. They should just leave things as they are now. But since it seems they just wont stop releasing new servers I think they have to merge some of the smaller ones to give them a decent chance.

Yellonde needs desperately to be merged.
The only population moving in there is just replacing the rapid amount of people quitting the server/moving out still. :<

Like low populated servers with high populated servers would be fine, but it would kind of ruin the whole world transfer thing ._.

I think all four of the newest servers could use a boost. Releasing new servers at this point really doesn't make any sense to me. With the release of mini-dungeons, the higher population is only going to affect HH, BF, Anego, Pianus, and the mini-bosses. Also, I could log in to channel 17 every time like I did in Bera. I really really miss channel 17
