Inconceivable!

There's a big difference between having a server accessible only to members, as AQW does, and forcing all Varium players to play on a Varium-only server. Besides the problem of determining who is a Varium player, there is the point that Varium is meant to be an advantage, both in and out of battle. The balance team is continually working on the problems that are making the gap between non-Varium and Varium players in battle. There will be a gap, but it will be much more reasonable. Second, Varium players are EpicDuel's supporters. Without them, the game wouldn't be able to keep on existing. Supporting a game shouldn't limit your options, it should open up new options. If there was an optional Varium-only server, I don't think it would see much use for the reason DeathGuard mentioned -- players want to feel their advantage if they bought Varium. Sir Ver and Evil Sir Ver on AQW are popular since they are often lag free (or at least less laggy) than the non-member servers due to their smaller player populations. I wouldn't see a Varium-only server being used for much besides NPCing. Forcing all Varium players into another server brings up another problem. It separates our community in two. I know many non-Varium players, and I'm sure they wouldn't like being permanently separated from their Varium friends, or vice-versa. The Varium gap is still a problem, and it's still bigger than it should be, but this just isn't a feasible solution.
