LOL...
Yes, it's sad that we may be just a tad bit too addicted, but this definitely did not have to be done when and how it was done.
Another oddity is that all mayors got changed to idle status. Why in the world is that needed? I am almost positive that doesn't happen with a random teleport, and I know for a fact it doesn't happen during server reset times, so why during the merge? Resource boosts from Hero Plus are certainly higher than 25% if you have a decent politics hero as mayor.
Edit: As I'm a programmer, I can think of one, but really only one, valid reason the mayor situation happened. If there was a check for non-idle heroes, which the wording on the web site does state heroes need to be back, then what could have happened is part of the merger script was written to check for non-idle heroes, but did NOT have an exclusion for mayors. Should have been:
If (status is not Idle) AND (status is not Mayor)
Do Something
End If
instead of:
If (status is not Idle)
Do Something
End If
[end edit]
We are having to deal with it. I hope that the rest of you that are on non-merged servers won't have something like this happen, even those who voted in the "don't care" or "do it" groups...
Also, as was mentioned, the account named as a misspelling of something illegal / immoral, was on server 16 and was one of those 1-member alliances that would declare on everyone just to be annoying. There is now that name and one that has the number 1 appended to it on N4. That person / those people, and people similar on all servers, should be banned, as it isn't funny in the slightest.
