Inkwell, I don't know if you read the forums or if you get feedback from here, but please reconsider your approach to the world merge you're attempting to do. A few years ago, we had a world merge which people chose to transfer to another world; most had chosen Bera. This new merge, from what I'm seeing, isn't offering the choice for players to "choose" where they go; the option completely isn't even available. Everyone is just going to Scania. I am saying this cause I played this game before the first world merge, which single-handedly made the majority of the player base quit, as the first merge, not everyone got to leave or do it, which separated a lot of players. A lot of players, when you announced the world transfer or merge idea, a lot of players were thinking that they would be able to reunite with their friends who they had separated from in the first world merge. Your approach to just dumping everything in Scania isn't going to be good for players who were looking forward to reuniting with their friends and family. I am recommending that if you do plan to continue it allow players to choose between Bera or Scania if you're not going to merge all in one. Let players choose, as the player knows best. Remember what you said in the first announcement. You said you wanted to make the right choice and not take easy routes, you dumping everything in Scania is doing the opposite of that. Now, if you still plan on doing this, at least allow my crew in Elysium to transfer to Bera. I need my crew. Again, please reconsider this decision and don't take the easy route, doing this will make you a legend among legends

Merging the 3 worlds together will create about the population that Bera currently has. They want to try to keep the population equal and not have Bera have way more players which would also depopulate the other world, solving nothing.
I just wish the new world would be a new name and icon rather than just be Scania still.
I feel that players should have a choice in this matter and I hope inkwell sees this post and gives the people the choice and a voice
Regarding the OP and a world leap option. I think last time GMS tried it, the consequence was too many people moving to Bera and leaving several worlds a lot more dead than intended. The problem with the leap option is it leaves players in a state of confusion and anxiety of making the wrong choice. Players won't know which world will be at which population level until its too late. The whole thing is messy. Its better for Nexon to make the decision so all players have the same understanding of how the populations will be
EDIT: i do want to add that the auction house crossworld tax is not cool. Its going to have negative consequences for f2p interactive players. Since these players will likely try to only shop for items in their own world (to avoid the tax) they will face competition from players in other worlds who don't mind the tax.
