(Plus extra for furniture loss) and get to transfer for free. A fresh new community to start over with on Worlds with no prior reputation is mighty tempting.

I plan on just visiting for a few days to get a good scope on how many people appear to have seriously transferred over. I'm worried about bots overrunning the place as well as how long queues will take. But I feel like in the long run it might be worth it...
At least in the case of moving from NA to another NA data center, your friends will still show up on your list. Not sure if this is going to be the case if you are changing regions.
