Hi there! I'd like to ask this on behalf of all Kin Leaders.
In regards to a Kinship moving:
According to the letter, it was recommended that Kinship Leaders transfer before their members, and that when the Kin members transfer they would automatically be added to the Kin on the new World. This sounds like a smooth transition in that matter.
MAIL and HOUSING is a concern.
***Will you (or can you please) open up MORE NEIGHBORHOODS for transferring Kins?
Our Kin currently occupies a whole neighborhood (as do a lot of other Kins I imagine) and this would be a big inconvenience for all of us, or any kin, both in searching for a hood with enough homes for everyone, as well as looking for homes in general. We're having an open house party this weekend before the list comes out, as we're a very close virtual family, and I hate the thought of our neighborhood being taken away if our server closes. (It would be nice to have about 20 more homes in the hood, but more importantly, more hoods are needed)
*** MAIL - Can you please take the expiration off of Mail? This week, 2 old friends and Kin members - who haven't been on in a whole year - came back. One had a car accident and the other had been sick. There are many old Kins with veteran players who take long breaks, and I would hate to see Kin families broken up because of this move. If someone were to log in after their world was closed or after the kin has moved, their Mail could still be there (if you kindly take off mail expiration and allow Mail to be across the servers) and they would have mail knowing where the Kin went. There must be a way to make the move as Kin-friendly as possible to keep people together.
In recapping, Please open more neighborhoods for us and do what you can with the mail system so kin members aren't abandoned after the worlds close.
