I'm not a full-time RP player (play on Ravenous-PvP (EU) server but still enjoy the occational RP session). This means i am thrilled as hell about the upcomming Megaservers. However i understand that there are plenty of people out there who are afraid this change will ruin the game for them.
 
The way MegaServers usually work is that there is one big server where you in each instanced zone can choose between different instances. For example if you are on Alizar you can choose between multiple instances of Alizar incase one of them is too crowded... not crowded enough for if you are trying to avoid a player who has been mean to you. From what i understand you will be able to chose between different chat channels English/Enlgish-RP/French/French-RP/German/German-RP. These channels will hopefully have their own set of instances. For example if you select the English-RP chat channel when logging in -> You will only see and interact with other English-RP players. You can still whisper and be grouped / guilded / in circles with players who are not in English-RP chat channel. But you wont see them unless you join their instance or they join yours.
 
This is how Mega Servers usually work... not sure how it will be in Wildstar. But hopefully they will do something similar to this as it would remove most of the worries that the RP community seems to be having.
 
And to Carbine; If you have some other idea in mind, may i suggest you consider doing something similar to this. Most of the RP players want a world where they can run around without being interupted by non-RP players. If you attach the different chat channels to different instances of the server then you wouldnt change things as drasticly. Since a non-RP player would have still have to go out to the loading screen and change to only interact with RP players in order to ruin their fun. Which to be honest can already be done by rolling a character on a RP server. And i think the amount of players who would actually do such a thing only to ruin other peoples fun is very very small.
 
Megaservers doesnt have to ruin the game for RP players, if implemented correctly.
 
And for the people who dont want forced Surnames; Is your characters name really that important? I for one have tried to make myself recognized as "Commander Juddy" but i dont mind getting a surname. If the reward is increased player interaction on servers and positive advancements for the game. So what if i have to be "Commander Juddy Chuastomper" after the change? Its a very small price to pay for a lot of postive gains.Now if people could please stop rioting that would be great.Regards,Commander Juddy hense known as Commander Juddy Chuastomper.

Hey there,
 
Since we've got a thread going to collect feedback/questions/concerns about the upcoming mega server, I'm going to go ahead and close this one.
