There is still a lot of hard feelings (mostly on server 15 and 16) for the merger that happened during Christmas. Here's on post that really says it all:

Additionally nobody has stepped up to the plate to say they're sorry or to just give us back the 3 days of no food consumption that got taken away that the rest of the COMMUNITY will be able to enjoy, since they had the potential for 8 days vs. our 5. These are non-trivial complaints that deserve a response...but will likely not get one. On the bright side, at least they didn't force anyone else to go through a merge until now, after Epiphany / Three Kings Day / Twelfth Night...which is what it should have been for everyone.
The facts are:

1) that the short notice did leave many who were vacationing or just taking a couple days off for the holidays unaware that the merger was happening

2) those that merged were "cheated" out of 3 days of "milk and coockies"

3) that Evony really should take ownership of their poor timing and acknowledge the "mistake" they made of choosing this particular date for merging the servers.

4) that those on all other servers should be very thankful it was not their server, stop being selfish, and support those on server 15 & 16.
