ONLY the data that is saved in 1 hour is being moved. Weather the game stays up for another 2 months or not means nothing because the data for those 2 months is separate.

    They are spending this 2 hours to create a copy of the current data at that point. That is the whole point of this "your data will not update after nov 1st" because they have it already from that point.

    They do a copy, not a cut.

    You can be happily playing on US server now with your character but when ARR comes in couple months, your data that was saved today may have gone through those futuristic space tubes to US or EU :P
    Sort of, It was meant to illustrate that the 1.0 servers are not the 2.0 servers. I doubt they'd have ARR running on a VM, or vice versa, 1.0 running on a VM so that the world would stay on the same physical machines. I suppose there was probably a more eloquent way to state it.

    I think they stated awhile ago that the current servers are 1.0 code running on 2.0 hardware? That's what I've been going about for.
