ROFL

 

90CC server transfers were available forever. You made the choice to stay on your server. Enjoy playing with yourself. Anyone (who is sub) could have easily moved 44 characters without spending a dime.

So?! To be fair, a lot of servers didn't die DIE until the last weekend of 90cc transfers. The choice facing some players NOW is to either pony up $10 a toon or quit. Them quitting will do far more harm to this game than free character transfers will...so who gives a flip what prices were...it's what they are NOW that matters.

They are in this problem because of they made a poor choices. It's not BW or anyone else problem but theirs. They choose to stay, they can deal with the server they want to play on. To be fair Tux, BW shouldn't do anything to help them. BW gave 90cc for almost a year.

That "poor choice" may not have seemed so bad Friday night before they went out of town for the weekend...but upon returning Tuesday for raid night, they found almost everyone who swore they'd stay, was gone...

 

What do you care if it's 90cc or 200000cc? 90cc is something good for the people. 1000cc isn't...

Signed.

 

If the change was made to stop people from cheating the 1000cc name changes, make all transferred toons not moveable for 30 days after a transfer. I dont know many people who would wait 30 days to transfer back just for a cheap name change...

Wow, nice rally. Bioware needs to address this. It's not going to hurt BW's bottom line to open the 90cc for one more month. And the negative people against or saying these folks sealed their fate, you only lose too if it's not addressed. Talk about "not seeing the forest for the trees."

 

HELP ME MOVE ( I don't really need to, just wanted to support) :)

There have been several threads about server merges but still no word from the management. Myself and several other guild leaders have tried to save our server ToFN but the sudden increase in transfer costs caused a flood of panic migrations and whilst we did our best to prevent it, the damage had already been done.

 

The lone-wolves and smaller guilds on our server are getting the brunt of it since a lot of them are having trouble getting raid groups together so they end up collapsing. Currently, this benefits the larger guilds like mine since we take their remaining members but this won't last long. Everyone is suffering from lack of PvP, R-PvP and GSF pops and unless you have a pre-made group from your guild then you'll be lucky to get a GF raid.

 

I've spoken with several guild leaders on my server, representing over 1000 active accounts and we all agree, despite our attempts to fight the storm, we just can't stay.

 

Why didn't you all move already?

Each guild/person has their own reasons. Personally, I really had faith that they wouldn't let our servers get this bad without a merger happening and I didn't want to leave people behind that had strong connections with others on the server. I figured when/if the time came we would all get to move together. None of us could of predicted they would end the cheap transfers just as the summer holidays where about to begin.

 

The fact is we have given up on server merges. We get it, there's not enough people left to make it worth your time prioritising development of a method to move strongholds and all the other stuff. There is a rumor that merges may be coming in Q3/Q4 but by then it will be far too late. On top of that, there are still people that do not want to move, they enjoy the quieter servers.

 

How can you help?

Please post in this thread to show that you want cheap/complimentary transfers to be temporarily re-enabled. You don't have to write a block, just say "Help me move!". Let them know we're not happy and it's not just a small number of us.

 

I will encourage people on my server to post here and I ask that you all do the same. Even if you are already living in one of the destination servers please post here to help your lost friends, brothers and sisters find their way back to you.

 

Tait, Eric, we stuck it out, we tried our best to prevent the need for merges, we really had faith that you would help us and you still can. Please re-enable the cheap transfers for another month or give us a single complimentary transfer for each of our characters. Don't punish us for having faith in you.

 

Help us Tait/Eric, you're our only hope! :w_angelic:

 

oh so when i warned you to transfer i was called stupid and all. 'you ll make ToFN great again' and here you are begging for a merge. Oh the irony.

As I said in the live stream...

 

You had the possibility to move! Transfers were dirt cheap forever, you have no one to blame but yourselves for not taking advantage of it! -A Jung Ma Player

 

Sorry we trusted that BW was going to address the issue of server population. And sorry we are asking them to help us out of the situation they created because of their pricing policy. I guess our asking BW to help us out is taking really a lot away from you, because otherwise would you come here to tell us to die in our hole? Or are you just here to savour other people's misery?
