US Server shutting down?

TeriyakiTanker:  I think, well hope, everyone is aware that we lost something like 40% of the player base since 9.18 hit.  It was rather common when I started playing to see 35k people on during prime time, now sometimes we hit 25k but mostly 20-22k or lower now during the summer.  Lots of reasons for the lower population but I personally believe the three biggest are that this is an old game, the death of clan wars, and the new 3/5/7 MM. Things seem to have stabilized for now and I would guess we still have a few years before getting rolled into the EU server unless they really change some things around here.  Either way hope you enjoy it while it lasts.
