World Transfer fees?

I don't care the reasons but I want to go to another less populated server. so free world transferfor all!!! xD

Unfortunately, the way I see it. They will compensate everyone with 1 free character transfer. Although, what good does that do to people that were locked out.

Not trying to be rude or insensitive to your frustrations, however I'm not seeing the people getting locked out as a big deal. They signed the DOS and although the situation really sucks (I'm in the same boat), continuing to complain about something that SE is actually addressing and trying to fix however slow it they are at doing so doesn't help the situation. :( But your point about 1st transfer free being one type of compensation for the mishaps does sound like a good plan that SE should consider.

Rift does.

Even if they do provide World Transfers, some people (like myself) wouldn't be able to use them because they have a Legacy/1.0 character and cannot transfer to a new server. I wanted my gf to play on my server with me and some of our old friends from XI, but you can't make new characters on it anymore so I told her to think about playing on a completely new server and we'll make new friends. I'll miss my Legacy choco...but it'll be more fun playing with her. Not looking forward to making a new character but it is what it is.

If GW2 can do it so can SE. But yes lets just be oblivious to the right ways to run servers like GW2 did and just be a fanboy and say all the other games had horrible server population issues too. Even tho they didn't derp.

Just because you use in game money doesn't make it free. It still costs time to acquire the necessary funds, regardless of whether the currency is real or virtual.
