WOW! Everyone thinks that server 143 is full of inactives, try playing on server 6 and higher....You cant even port into any state anymore cause of the inactives and npc's. Evony does not care about their customer's at all if so they would merge the older servers and make aload of money. I mean come on Evony do something.
its not that hard to make us happy. I have an ideal, why don't you guys live up to your mission statement. That would be a good thing.....Remember this;
Our mission, and all of our practices, are centered upon the pursuit of user happiness. This isn't just a slogan...we really mean it! We want to start by thanking you for your honest feedback in recent days. We've listened to all you've had to say and have decided that the best way to make you, our players, happy is to make some changes.
Best Regards,

Now that is some mission statement that you will never be able to live up to unless you stat paying attention to the Age I servers, you know the one's that have been playing this game for over a year now. Here is something for Evony:
Give me an E
Give me an V
Give me an O
Give me an N
Give me an Y
What's that spell? Boring, yep that's right full of inactive's and NPC's! Nice farming game you have made EVONY

I will never play Age II
I have suggested installing some flats that could only be occupied for several days.Then unless you voluntarily moved you would be randomly teleported.This would liven up the server,reducing slow wars fought from hundreds of miles away and keep everyone on their toes.![]()
I play on Server 6. Not too long ago, a matter of a couple of weeks even, I knocked several inactives around me to 0 loyalty. Within the following maintenance, sometimes within the very next hour, those who weren't hosts/founders/cent-purchasers were gone, with new flats for me to take over and use. While I can't speak for other servers, I don't see what the problem here on Server 6 is, unless someone has the extraordinary bad luck of being completely surrounded by hosts/founders/cent-purchasers, or just can't be bothered to zero out the inactives around them.
As for NPCs clogging up the place, Evony's offered several times to delete NPCs. The reaction of players was outrage, including threats to quit, boycott, or sue Evony over it. Ironically, Evony gets similar outrage for not doing it.
I also find it ironic that players try to coax Evony into doing this or that by saying it's a great idea because they'd make money from it, then later if Evony does something the players don't like, they insult Evony by saying they're a bunch of greedy jerks whose actions are entirely motivated by money. What a lovely double-standard.
The pursuit of player's happiness is quite hard when Evony players expect Evony to both delete and not delete NPCs in a single move, amongst other paradoxes (like, 'we want a merge, we don't want a merge, we all want to be happy, so do both things at once').
I think players need to stop pointing fingers and blaming Evony for everything and look at the bigger picture: there's many player opinions about what Evony should do, not all opinions agree with one another, and no single opinion takes precedence over another. Other players not agreeing with your personal opinion isn't Evony's fault, and it's ridiculous when one half wants Evony to do this and that, and the other half doesn't want Evony to do this and that, and then both sides say Evony sucks and is stupid/incompetent/etc. because they didn't make "the obvious choice that will make everyone happy".
Contrary to whatever belief seems to be out there, Evony is not and can't be omnipotent, and it's not easy at all for Evony to make customers happy when they want opposing things and expect Evony to do things their way instead of "the other guy's way".
EDIT: Since this thread is closed and I don't want to override the decision of my fellow moderator, and it wouldn't be appropriate for someone to create a new thread to address me or a closed topic, I'll add the comment here that anyone with the desire to respond to my post is free to drop me a private or visitor message, it doesn't really matter which.

It's all Rodri's fault.
So 143, if 99% full pretty much.... This is crazy. Sweeeeeep it up already, theres like 10:1 inactive player to active player its probaly a much higher ratio. some people may say well its ironic how you make alts then complain, well they come from the ads you still have up. When theres proof you reject it and ban the person and all of there posts. How does that work?
