WvW Poll 21 May: World Linking (Closed)

Voted no because I really dislike the idea of joining high pop and low pop servers, but thinking about it now, I think that if servers could be pooled individually on whether or not they want to be part of the world linking program would be best, and then linking low pop with low pop servers, while leaving highly populated servers alone.

I purposely chose a low ranked, low populated server to avoid only being able to play the mode as part of a zerg spamming my AoEs against the enemy’s zerg. I guess that now I can play like that but it’s just not what I’m looking for.

Hey, I was talking with some friends and my suggestion to avoid having the lower ranked served simply fade out or a wonky merged name would be the following:
- Players are no longer seen as “[Rank]+[Server] Invader/Defender”, but “[Rank]+[Color] Invader/Defender”
- Add a “[Server Name]” or “[Server Name]+WvW rank title” or maybe even “[Server Name] Loyalist” title for those that want to keep repping their home server.

I think that WvW was the last shard of Server Identity, ever since the introduction of Megaservers. The people I talk to on Lion’s Arch are no longer those that I will be fighting side to side on WvW. Maybe, down the line, the merge will be permanent and one of two servers will bite the dust, or both will be amalgamated into a third identity. I, for one, do not want that; but if it has to happen, all I ask is a way to proudly say where I originally hailed from.
