Maybe an old player could confirm that. But I believe I remember reading here and there that old players, whose subscriptions had expired, and who tried to come back, actually had to do so with a new account on a free trial basis. If they wanted to replay with their old formerly subbed character, they had to subscribe to the old account again. CSRs generally are willing to help through this process.
But if this is true, anyone who plans to subscribe for just one or two months during the server merge might find that that account will be stuck either in a subscription, or cannot be played with.
And I wouldn't mind. I understand that some people may be in trouble finding the money to play right now. But I also understand that a company at least has to cover all cost by some margin.
I'd encourage that those individuals should contact support and see what they can do to help with the issue. Ask politely(!) and don't demand. Those that have multiple 125er levels and are still on a free account, must know that everybody else is subsidizing them...
