IMO.. They should just give all the dead servers a few to transfer too. Then give you the option to pay to move wherever you like.
And yes, I'll gladly drop 25/50$ per character to move to Fatman.. If I have to wait 30minutes to get it? So what.. I have and Agent and Warrior there already.. Just waiting on the Assassin and Merc on my fail server to join them.
Far as legacy goes? I don't even care. Just let me move where I want.. with my credits. And again, I'll gladly pay.
