World Transfer Applications Begin (03/01/2012)

I will gladly retract what I said if this is true, I sure hope so

The quote he is looking for is this one:

In response to a player asking whether or not inactive accounts would be able to transfer:

Unfortunately, this isn’t likely to change from what was outlined in the previous announcement. In keeping with the concept behind the World Merge, the primary goal is to maintain a balance of active players (i.e. characters) on the servers. If we allow hundreds of thousands of currently inactive characters to freely transfer across Worlds, there’s a high risk that our calculations for time zone peak numbers on every World will end up in chaos.

Sorry to confirm this, but world transfer requests will be sticking to the system explained in the previous topic.

All this means is all inactive characters won't get an option to transfer to another world. They will stay on the one they are at.

Aegis full!

From the first question here, I had read that as pertaining to inactive characters during the whole process when I first saw this weeks ago. When I reread it just now, I noticed it just spoke about World transfer applications, not the default world choice.

Edit: Damn you, Wynn!

Gugnir, Ridill, and Ragnarok are the only ones left.

well, this happens after people screamed "4° option suck" :P now if you're planning to move an entire linkshell you're screwed.
Sorry, but this time we got what we deserve.

It will change once NA's/EU start logging on and changing servers.

Edit: Then again maybe not since only 2 places to go.

This predicament is not of our doing, SE undersized the servers, simple as that.

Except the linkshell chooses Ragnarok.

There's a whole empty server nobody wants to go to is the problem. SE told us from day one that there would not be additional hardware being bought. They'd just make use of current equipment.
