Hell world transfers were not even going to be an option for another few weeks if I am correct, its possible because they are still working on it.
Yes, this would be a major change in the way servers are managed, which will be difficult to implement once paying customers are playing. That's probably why they wanted to have the current system set up during beta (and even then people made a big fuss about it). At the end of the day, I fear those who are frustrated will simply leave, and the servers will stablize and everyone else will just go back to playing and forget about all this. One of the reasons I wanted to direct people's attention to this is because it does more than just address the immediate server congestion concerns, it's a call to reverse their original decision to "split" the servers up and dividing a great global community. Yes, language barriers will present themselves, but at the end of the day, I think the benefits still far outweighs the downsides.
