in my opinion. the developers did the cross server in such a way that u meet older servers whereby their players have more rare ninjas and obviously better initiative. they've been doing this with server mergers. go read some threads about it.
doing this, makes u have impulse buying and spend on this game. so yeah, they're greedy bunch of monkeys. they make it as though this game is good for f2p players but the things they do always bias towards p2win.
