On Different Game World
I didn’t know they did this… Very interesting. Would definitely like to see an answer.
And all who stood by and did nothing, who are they to criticize the sacrifices of others?
Our blood has bought their lives.
Sounds fair. If there are inactive players on a full server, makes sense to move them away so active players can get on. And then if the inactive player decides to play again, he can enjoy his new home, and make new friends!
I don’t know. Never heard of them moving people for being inactive. Are you sure your friend’s account hasn’t been compromised, and someone else in control of your account moved to another server? That has usually been the reason when someone returns after an absence and finds their account on a server not of their choice.

If your friend’s character is on a map that is already full, he would go into what’s called an “overflow” map until such time as the map opens up and he gets transferred there (with his permission) later.
We do not move players out of their game world to make more space. I agree with Ic here, I worry that if indeed your friend is on an entirely different game world, his game account may have been compromised. Alternately, he may have moved without remembering, since he’s been inactive and might not recall his most recent world correctly. But again, we don’t move people around involuntarily.

Maybe…..just some silly speculation…..You friend hasn’t played for a year or longer…
Maybe…just some more silly speculation…your friend did a transfer to another world back then when it was still free cause guesting wasnt in place yet??
Guesting was implemented on january 28th, 2013. before that date, you couldnt guest between worlds, but instead a world transfer was free. This change has been announced within a good time frame, but being an inactive player he could have missed the warning and have forgotten it.
While saving up for the transfer fee, your friend can guest to play with you on the regular world
He can also transfer without paying the trasnfer fee, but this equires a different kidn of sacrifice: Deletion of all characters. When he has done this, the fee will be gone. Keep min mind that all items that are not soulbound can be stored in the bank and will be there when he makes a new character after the transition.
Arise, opressed of Tyria!
