Transferring Guilds
This is something my small guild was recently considering as well, and I couldn’t find any documentation that said we could transfer the guild with all the spent influence.
I think I’m on the same server as Mikio. My guild is also tired of waiting on the 4 hour queues. It’s great to be on a populated server, but these queues are horrible. If ArenaNet doesn’t fix this relatively soon, we’ll be heading to another server.
I thought guilds are cross-server? If that is true, wouldn’t the ‘upgrades’ also be available to the other servers?

We had the same problem on Stormbluff Isle and transferred our guild. It was rough losing all the upgrades that we had purchased, but it was definitely worth it. We are now on Ferguson’s Crossing having a much better experience. We are not facerolling the other servers like Stormbluff Isle did, but we prefer that play style anyway and we can actually get into WvW.
So all upgrades are lost then…

My small guild is in this same boat. We want to move to one of the 3 newer servers and help spread the population, small though we are.
However, influence and upgrades are server dependent. Which means influence earned on server 1, stays on server 1 and is only usable on server 1. Technically you can have guild members on multiple servers each earning their own pool of influence and upgrades for that server.
I really hate this, and I hope that Arenanet lets guilds temporarily transfer their upgrades/influence so we can help even the populations.
At the very least I’d like to see them refund us the amount of influence we earned on the first server so we can queue up a ton of upgrades on the new one – better than nothing!
Oh man, we are on the same server and while I’ve not seen any grumblings about transferring, it would be sad to have to upgrade everything to level 4 again…
