the whales that demand merges just cuz they are bored is true beyond believe, i'v seen it first hand and who was to suffer? the rest of the players, not only we have to deal with extra population when we had FAIRLY GOOD activity but now we have less chances to most "competitive" events such as ino flowers or whatnot and on top of that the usual plunders and drama that comes with them(and ofc a lot of people quit cuz of that) and everything, why? cuz a .... whale "wanted competition" im not even gonna talk about those strange low power accounts that enthuse them to ask for merges constantly...

that was a nice read, for a change. . XD
yea, i kinda pity the whales that got too big too fast and are starving to death for overfeeding.
but, it isn't really that big of an issue cuz every whale that died off ends up a great boon !!
and those who lived had more impt things to go after than sharks.

Hello, thank you for this suggestion, I have noted it and will pass it along. To start with, I would like to state that there is currently no method to transfer accounts between different servers. However, I would also like to ask for clarification on a few different points. Firstly, at what point do you draw the line for "normal account growth"? A big spender doing all Infinite Tsukuyomis? Then a small spender would appear above the average account growth, then smart/lucky f2p players... at what point would the line have to be drawn? Also, what if the bigger spenders have accounts in multiple different servers, and their character is forced to transfer, then it would create a huge conflict when it comes time to transfer.
In regards to your second idea, it would appear as if server merges are happening less frequently than they used to, do you think this frequency is helping combat this issue? What do you think would be ideal?

Thanks Tyler.

The method to transfer accounts between different servers should work just like merges, no? If we can put several servers together moving this way accounts together can't we do the same but with a single account? Is not something that would happen when the player wants it, would be a method to solve situations like the mentioned in this post or when there's been players reporting to have been bullied by another player in that server, you could have either the bully relocated or the player affected by it.

I would draw the line of normal account growth when a player gets to have a huge power difference compared to other players in their server.
No need to specify amounts, it is something easy to spot, as mentioned above we're talking of players with like the triple the power of the next guy in ranking, for example.
If you have a new server with 99% players having 300k power and then another player with 1m+, that's pretty much a server killer and should be relocated to compete where he should and not ruin the experience of the rest of players with a normal account growth.

If a big spender has different accounts in multiple servers but they're in harmony with the normal development of players in those servers then there's no problem with those accounts. If those multiple accounts also happen to have over the triple of power than the next guy in ranking then they should definetely be relocated too.
Here I would like to clarify that I respect the right of a whale to pay to be the strongest, but one thing is to pay to do that and another is paying to basically play alone because the other players can't even scratch you. I can put the example here of a server with top guy having triple power than the 2nd in ranking, with most op meta team that exists and the rest of players still using the ninja provided in miniclient download cause is the best they have. That's a horrible experience and will kill the motivation to play in that server.

Regarding the last question I'm actually fine with the pace of merging that we have now, they do it like once a month right? That's fine, it's not fine though what I mentioned in the post, that newer servers get to have priority precisely cause they remained empty because a mega whale killed the motivation of the rest of players to keep playing in that server. A server with less than 7-8 months of life shouldn't be able to get merged. Give priority to older servers that need merging for better reasons.

the system is technically there to "spot a whale", just as how plundering works, that you cannot plunder 15 levels below your level the same can be applied for power, a % in correlation with the next in rank for example if the whale passes a +50% of next rank then it should be marked as such
