I mean I joined my server (51) over a month after it was opened and had no clue what to do. However, with some research and trial and error I made progress. Yes after I reached a certain point I spent money but, even if I didn't i would still be doing well (currently number 1). The issue is them merging a few number of servers a week and opening seven more. I laugh when I see someone from a 200+ server cry for a merge when people below 75 can't even get one. Which is another reason why I personally think it would be easier just to move to a new game that listens to its community.

I could not agree more. I myself am one of the top 10 us side for power and no longer will be spending. I am tired of being ignored and looked over for later servers that opened months later.

He seems to be merely expressing his opinion about his friends leaving due to oasis's performance. Where as you are more attempting to belittle him on a forum. Or something like that. He had just as much right to express his opinion as anyone else.

Another moderator has said before that you look at server power levels and activity rates for events. Anyone can go look at rankings to see activity for groups, sage, and world boss. Which would also show them which players were active. So I would say that if someone wanted to they could easily check another server similar to theirs, should they choose to.
