Maybe you should wait until they decide to do it before worrying about the mechanics. My guess is that they'd let you chose which faction, and therefore which character(s) you would like to keep. It would probably be a long time before they ever did something like that though, because can you imagine the complaints they'd get about everyone paying $13 for 5 servers and now there's only 3 and oh my god they had better lower the price to $8, etc, etc, etc...

So they may someday do that, but I guarantee they would have a good system for transitioning characters cause merging servers would already be more than enough of a customer service nightmare for them.

That would friken suck since I have a char on all the servers BR15 or higher and 2 chars on some servers. I would be willing to drop my Johari dudes I guess, but hell no I dont want to lose my Kornied or Markov dudes and losing my TR dudes isnt even an option

This isn't something that'll happen soon so we don't need to worry about it yet.

They'll either transfer characters or in name/faction conflicts they'll probably let you create a new character and credit your BR/CR to the new one.

It'll never happen. AT least I doubt it will.

I hope not. I really don't like emerald. I love Konried.

I would hate for Konried's TR and NC guys to get mixed in with Emeralds. at least Emerald's VS is respectable.

Yep, your character will be deleted and you won't be able to play PlanetSide anymore. Good thinking.

Don't forget about naming issues.

Somebody is bound to have somebody elses name on another server. How would that be resolved? Rock-Paper-Scissor like the current fighting system?

This is some of the reason it will likely never happen. It would be a huge process.
