Hey, this problem doesn’t really concern me or most of us, but it’s something that I feel should be brought up.

After guesting is implemented and free transfers are shut off, are there any plans to allow new accounts to server transfer for free? New players may not quite understand what they’re looking at when they receive the first realm list, or the server with their friends may be full. I think it’d be a good idea to let new accounts realm transfer for free maybe once or twice, or during the first week or something along those lines. I think it’ll save newbies a lot of hassle.

Again, not a problem that affects me, but I just thought I’d throw that out there.

Since Tarnished Coast is the unofficial RP server this would help us out quite a bit.

When I first started I wasn’t expecting much in terms of RP (although my friends and I enjoy it), but when we heard Tarnished Coast was the unofficial RP server we transferred over and never looked back.

Without having some way to denote that for new players (like, hint hint, making us an official RP server), it’s going to be difficult to draw more roleplayers into the fold/place we call home.

The smart and reasonable thing for them to do would be every account gets one free server transfer. I don’t play the game anymore tbh however if your stuck on one for the majority of the deserted servers in the game it would really suck for you to be stuck on that server now that everyone has transferred off for free.

Like I said don’t personally care but would feel bad for someone now stuck. Would just be more incentive for them to stop playing then spend more $$ to move because of months of free transfers caused a major population imbalance.

Agreed. Though it should probably expire if not used within a certain amount of time. Whether it be a month or a week.

If you’re actually a newbie then you shouldn’t really mind deleting your characters and starting over on a new server for free. Otherwise, pay up.
