    Wait, so the advice from the people who've transferred successfully is: when you get to the "World Selection" step and only 1 server shows up to transfer to and ----------------- is the server you transfer from, keep refreshing the page and eventually after enough refreshes it'll actually show the right servers?

    How many refreshes is it taking people to get the servers to show up?

    How many licks to the center of that lollipop? :P

    The center is a lie.

    It took about an hour 35-40 minutes, honestly. It was after a billion F5's and three different site pages.

    Having the full server list doesn't do you any good if none of your characters show up in the dropdown below it.

    First get your choosen server confirmed. Only then you'll be able to pick your current one. Several F5s might be needed between those 2 steps. The reciep stays the same. The amount of time needed remains unkown.

    I find it kind of funny(=sad) how SE already warned us that the actuall execution of the transfer might take a few days but it actually takes less than 5 minutes. If they exprected so much more request then they are actually getting right now. (Well lemme rephrase: more request then those who are able to get through) why aren't they prepared for this.

    They worried about step 2 when everyone's stuck at step 1. Guess it will be much better by tomorow but noone really wants to be waiting in a queue for days. Why should we. I fail to see why they didnt rent some additional servers for today to run the service. That's like the most common thing in the world to do. You can even rent that stuff for a choosen amout of hours.

    I was reading the eligibility guidelines and it states that you cannot have free time remaining. I made the mistake of buying both the PS3 and the PC version of the game, giving me 60 days of free time even though I have been playing since launch.

    Does this mean that I am ineligible for the trasfers? SE support is a horrible joke at the moment, would be faster to swim to Japan to ask in person that to get a response from them, so I am wondering if anyone here knows.

    It shows me as having no eligible characters atm, but from what I'm reading it seems most people are in that boat. When I do get through it gives me the option of Diablos to transfer to and no characters to transfer

    I have been waiting for transfers since launch so I can play with the friends I bought the game to play with, if I'm not eligible due to purchasing the game on 2 different platforms, then thats the end for me with the game

    For clarity, we will be updating the site to remove that line. Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience that this has caused.
