Ystar asks:
"Well, basically, the question I wanted to ask has already been raised above, so I wanted to ask: what will happen to the North American Ayvenas server?
Will the regions ever be merged? I know latency (ping) would be an issue, but North America is basically a ghost town—you only see a few people here and there. I think it would be better to merge that server with the others so it doesn't get left behind and forgotten."
I have played on US servers with guild members from Europe, Israel, and even the Philippines. The signals cross the ocean at the speed of light. The latency on tans-oceanic cables is not visible and has no effect on gameplay. As for merging or transferring, I have no idea if that's a simple thing or too complicated to be practical.
