Identity of Server at Linking
Tons of threads on this very subject. If this forum’s search function wasn’t such a pos, you could look for the threads.
Fwiw, I am on Kaineng, a low tiered NA server paired with a T1 server (TC). Fortunately for us, TC has been very welcoming and supportive of us.
Linking is now a permanent feature of the game, and it doesn’t sound like the smaller servers will get any more recognition. We’ll have to do that on our own.
Mmo players with a screw loose vs mmo players with two screws loose. All very important stuff.

I think it would be an awesome way to keep folks happy with linking. Let each side(s) keep their server name in WvW.
Having two server names, whether enemy or ally, isn’t confusing. Red = fight them.
Hello,
I do not know if there some other players who think the same way, but I would appreciate it if A-Net allows that we are recognized by the opponents as a small server.
I would appreciate if we get back our server identity and seen by the opponent servers with my real tag and not from the bigger server. What do you think about it?
100% Agree with this , I’m from Tarnished Coast and if i came across Anvil Rock and Eredon Terrace tags it will be even more exciting . Anet should at least trial it .
My problem is why should a link server care or try at all? It seems like we are just going to thrown around to patch up population problems for servers we might not even like or just plain dislike. Even if we do like them there is almost no point in helping them out by training there pugs, responding to bl defense calls or anything because we will just be thrown with another server in a month. Hell there was one reset night where the CD map queue sat there spawning camping 3 SoS guild groups on there home bl while SoS owned 1-2 towers and to them we where just some SBI group instead of our community. As time goes on less and less CD will play for more then an hour at a time and large organize groups only happen on some resets when I feel like commanding or the leader of VII/TDS is doing a guild raid(wins alot of fights, then goes and caps entire bl’s and gets no recognize from it just like the rest of CD)
Just something like “Stormbluff Isle Gold Recruit (CD)” would be a small way for the linked server to have something without it confusing people who are fighting them.
Also I should say that this would not be a problem is servers where permanently merged because the people from the smaller server could start over and become a part of whatever server they are merged with but instead linked server are going to be thrown around alot so having a reason to care and keep that community alive should be there.
