Lots of players have already complained loudly about losing their levels and items during the server-merge.
Quite many do not want to return to the game after the merge because of that.
I understand that it's technically impossible to transfer the characters as they were.
But what if we could reclaim at least our char-levels after the merge to get them manually raised by the devs again? That regain doesn't have to happen right away of course, it could also be done in steps over time…
The data is still there, we could also make screenshots before the merge to proof our claims.
Maybe we could at least reclaim the 3 highest skill-levels or so - compromises could be made I guess? ;)
Also other things that were really, really important to us could be "reset" manually after the merge…
Maybe we could even "save" some items this way - by writing an e-mail to the Devs, with screenshots or whatever before the merge. Every player or character could perhaps do this for a certain number of his current items.
And those items would then be given to him/her again after the merge is done?
Yes I know it would be a lot of work and take time for the Devs.
But wouldn't it still be better than losing many, many players?
How about it, Devs?
Would you be willing to sacrifice the time to do this to save your community?
