I feel that this new system you are placing in the game will hurt regular players unnecessarily and i would like to propose adding a different feature that would combat wvw spies and leave the normal player unharmed. In this system there is a restriction on wvw access when transferring servers if that server is in the same tier of wvw as you. For example say that I am a player on Jade Quarry and i want to spy on Blackgate (I’m not accusing those that play Jade Quarry of anything just an example.)so i switch servers. When i try to get into wvw i get a message saying that i am unable to do this for a period of x days, also explaining that allowing people to immediately access wvw after transferring into a same tier server would promote spies while apologizing for the inconvenience however should i want to report in about activities on Yak’s Bend to my fellow Jade Quarries i can change servers and access wvw immediately, but within a few moments of me shouting out where they are going i will receive a bunch of hate comments from my guildies saying that they don’t care about Yak’s Bend’s movements. If the staff disagrees please give reasons as to why this would be less efficient of a system than allowing spying to continue for a fee while hurting regular players financially. You guys at Anet seem to have the right cause just a bad solution.

people don’t need to be transferring willy nilly, its not spying that’s killing wvw its transfer guilds, your ‘solution’ would do nothing to stop them. Spies run dual accounts so they can play and spy, they don’t transfer and lock themselves out of being able to play.

Server transfers were intended to cost gems in the first place.
The cost was temporarily revoked because ‘Guesting’ was on the fritz.

Since Guesting has been fixed, the price obviously must be reinstated.

Your suggestion is nothing but the product of players getting complacent with something that they didn’t even understand.

Dream you say that it is me being complacent, well complacency as i understand it is settling for something when something greater could be attained. So I ask you: in what way is this superior? I will use a situation i found myself in recently as an example here. so i was on a server that i didn’t particularly care for. I played on it for a good deal of time and found a guild i liked, however this did not affect my feelings towards the server. So the gms got the bright idea to go around slapping random perma bans on people over winters day, unfortunately i was one of their victims. So after two weeks of asking them to please actually look at my case i get back in. But what do i arrive to find? I see that my guild has not only fallen apart but that the remainder has merged with a guild that i cannot stand(the main reason that i dislike them is that they use the methods this is designed to stop in all their fights). So i now have nothing left on this server; I decided to leave. Is it a superior system if it penalizes people who are and will be in the same situation i found myself in or is it simply that we do not own the same dictionary?

Complacency can also mean ‘taking for granted’.

The only reason that they haven’t had server transfer costs was because of there being no Guesting.

As is, how does charging for server transfers hurt regular players?

I think you should still get one transfer for Free Imagine this Scenario

New player gets game after friend told them to get it to play it with them new person logs on “see’s server select screen” either don’t know what server his friend is on or don’t fully understand the consequences of not waiting for his friend to come on to tell him what server to pick. Or just Hell is so excited to wana play on any server just pick’s one and starts playing. So they are playing and friend gets on and he’s like okie i’m on lets play what server are you on? (..as you know you should all know were this next set of lines are going to go…) I’m on X Server! (them beeing all happy) (friend response) Duh! you picked the wrong server! (OMG now they sad) and there you have it in a nut shell why even with Guesting ONE transfer should be free on the creation of all new accouts as that person bought the game to play with that person and via his own issue to rush understand ect what have you is now penalized. That is a kind of mistake the game creators and we can all relate to right? and then after that One Transfer there is no excuse to still have anymore issues unless they did not have there glasses on when reading the world transfer server list….
