merge will never happen
main reason is some players have accounts on newfoundland, sandycove and northisle and some even on zeus/ares, and play these everyday, how would you then merge those accounts, especially if they have spent gems and bought expensive buildings/resources on more than 1 account. and the rules state 1 account per server so you would then need to decide which server account you wanted to keep and which you would want deleted, hard choice if similar levels on all servers accounts
in the past i had accounts on newfoundland (main one, level 64), sandycove (deleted account myself around level 20 something), and on zeus (level 50, not played for few months there)
