I will start by saying i love Wildstar, and i also dont think the game is "dying" as some posts on this matter share, but this is a common occurrence with any new MMO the initial sub numbers drop heavily within the first 2 or 3 months, this happens for many reasons i know be it from the plain "not having enough time to put into the grind" to the self-entitled "OMG U NERF I LEAVE GG", but we getting into the 3rd month now and quite a few servers are becoming "empty". I play on the Ravenous EU PvP server and the Dom pop is extremely low, now i dont mind the impacts of low server pops on economy / AH / CM, but i do mind the impact of trying to build up a decent guild. 
 
The guild i am running at the start of the game had a strong active base of about 20-25 online during most evenings, this has now dropped to about 8-10, we have recuirted activily during these months but the amount of new players coming into the game does seem alot less then players leaving the game, so i am wondering if any devs who happen to be reading through the 90% QQ posts and the 10% legitimate worries and cud maybe give some sort of response to this issue which unfortunately will only get worse.
 
How i mean by worse is this, if new players come into the game and look at the server list they gunna pick a sever with a decent pop on it, considering no EU servers sit at full or even most the time high it just means people will roll on those servers while the server i am on along with zhur will be less likly to be chosen due to it being low pop, so it means the population depravity between 2 servers will only get bigger as time goes on. 
 
Ofcourse the easiest answer would be to merge 2 low pops servers, there are other ways i.e to allow free transfers from high/med pops to low pops, which can work just aswell, but at the end of the day i dont have the numbers infront of me to be able to say this will work and this wouldnt work, and i dont execpt any player to be able to get the right answer without seeing those numbers so i hoping a Dev might be able to shed some light on this hopefully.
 
Thank you.

It is likely this will be locked due to this thread already discussing low populations and what to do about them.
 
However, I noticed your in a Dominion guild on Ravenous. Hit 'Until Our Teeth Fall Out' up if you want to build some community, one of our chaps (the lovely TommyGunn) has posted an idea about a dimolmatic circle with guild representitives in so we can build some inter guild relations.

			As was pointed out above, we already have a thread going about population/server merges. So, I'm going to lock this one up and direct the conversation there.
