Merge Bera With More Worlds?

Hi

Few months ago I quit the game, because in the world which I played at (Bera) was desolate.

I got back to play a couple days ago (including sunday) and it got even worse...

I also noticed that I always see the same people, or is it just my imagination?

My question is, are there any plans regarding merging Bera with more worlds?

    You must not be playing the same Bera that I am. But also everyone is in Adventure Island for the event now.

    Bera seems pretty busy to me, but there's probably only a few hundred people (excluding bots).

    A few hundred people in Bera? I doubt.

    I've been looking for people everywhere but so far I have only been able to find botters.

    Not sure what exactly you're talking about, but I'm pretty sure know what I saw.
    You must be talking about the botters, yes I have seen a lot of them but I don't consider them as players.
    I've also been online in saturday and sunday as well.

    Bera is the most populated world besides Reboot. Some would even say it's too populated.
    Keep in mind that most people are in level 200+ areas. Nameless Town, not Henesys, is now the place to see people showing off their chairs and NX looks. However, when training mules there this past week, I met non-bots in popular low-level training maps such as Silent Swamp and Sahel 2.
    The Canteen in Adventure Island has at least a dozen people in each channel, and the twice-an-hour invitation games (currently "When Golden Pigs Fly") draw over 20 people even in the middle of the night.
    If that's not active enough for you, I recommend joining an active social guild, for constant chatter and interaction with people.

    How long ago is "a few months" anyway? Because "a few months ago", bera was still packed as all hell. In fact "packed as hell" has been the norm for right around two years now. A few months ago was, I believe, still elbow-deep in all the black mage event stuff, so it was doubly packed as all hell. Did you maybe start playing on broa and mix yourself up to think that you were on bera?

    You're either mistaken about the world you're actually playing in, or else you never touch a channel lower than 5. I've never been on channel 1 or 2 and not seen a dozen or more people crammed into nameless town. No one sits around in henesys anymore because of the five bots around the market portal that are spamming chat to ass and back all hours of the day.

    Does this look like a dead world to you?

    The reason you don't see anyone in henesys is for the reason I gave above, and the reason you won't see a ton of people in towns right now is because they're all in here

    Take careful note of the minimap, there are a ton of people in that map. And it's not a shared map across the channels, each of the 20 channels has its own map.

    Consider also that, locally for me, it's 10:22 AM. Meaning it's still early morning across the rest of the US and Canada. Further consider that the server is this populated during what could be considered downtime. Not server downtime, but rather nothing currently going on that causes a ton of people to log in. Hop on bera during a 2x event and you'll be hard-pressed to find any decent training map not already occupied.

    I usually see people in ardent. Or doing their dailies. Maybe not as much lower-level characters.
    But whenever someone announces MVP there's at least 20-40 players showing up.

    Keep in mind, as well, that those 20-40 players showing up for mvp are the ones who actually care about things like that. At least on bera, for every one person that shows up for an mvp buff, there are probably 5-10 other players who didn't bother with it.

    The main reason all channels are full in Bera is because of the huge amount of botters.

    Yeah, me too.
    I always see botters, in fact I rarely see legit players.
