Have to agree with the main point here, test server is for testing things and sometimes things break when you stress them. Finding and reporting game problems is the purpose of playing on the test server. By allowing more players access to the server you have an entirely different set of circumstances to test out. A good example is SVS on test. Even with only 2 servers there is rarely anyone in SVS. The only times I see anyone there is when 2 pirates are sinking eachothers ships for the purpose of completing a quest. I have never been able to sail against anyone there who even has a war sloop. Its usually the battle of the light galleons! LOL I don't see how letting the unlimited players have access to the test server will ruin anything.
One thing I did notice was that there were a larger number of very polite, adult players on test then in the open server. I've managed to share space with many of them to both our advantage and I want to thank any of them that read this because its that kind of game play that this game really needs. I hope that the influx of new players doesn't spoil that (as it did 2 weeks ago)
