    Guys, this is a good idea and the reason is a no-brainer.

    They are moving to completely new server hardware and operating engines.

    These new servers will not be set up in the same way as the old ones, with different servers having responsibility for storing and processing different types of information to what the current ones do. Information transfers may be fiddelly and require far more than a few hours time to process. That, and they'll then want to make sure everything is working properly so it doesn't continuously crash once we're all back in.

    In order to make sure that character account data is properly imported, it needs to not be changing while it is being transferred. This is not about reducing power consumption due to power plant being shut down. To put it short, no one can be playing the game while this is underway, or the data can easily become corrupted.

    Do you want your character data to be corrupted?
