i feel you. can't wait for this alliance thing to happen. so allies can work something out. for now, in my mind, that's not the case since it's still the existing system, which is linking.

 

we don't have server resets to break and remake on a new server, the only option is to jump to a new server and rebuild.

If anet is not showing consistency, then it simply means they are not basing their decision on any fixed set of principles. It is good as they doing it because they can.

 

"Full" <> "gets no link", and Anet has never claimed it as such. The pop rankings were in place long before the link system. As the example pointed out, with Full being a threshhold whose purpose is to stop transfers in (not to prevent links), for the highest tier, there could be a significant variance among servers who meet that threshhold.

 

This is not a matter of inconsistency on Anet's part, it's a matter of trying to twist a label meant for one purpose into meanings it never had.
