World Transfers

[maartena]

For what it is worth..... the transfer of everything on my second account seemed to have gone without problems. All my toons are there, shared storage came over, wardrobe came over, and I have no characters (nor any way to create them) on Riddermark.

What didn't seem to work is housing escrow. I didn't check on my main account. I am going to buy a kinhouse now on one of my 1-man kins that transferred over and see what happens there.

Edit: Nope, seems there is nothing in escrow. Now I have heard of this taking longer, and since transfers are halted I will wait..... but this does slightly concern me

This happened for everybody in my kin who transferred on day one Maartena. I picked out a new house, went in and found my storage there at 298/90! The kin leader had even more to sort through, all of it jumbled in together in one place. Not a complaint as such, nothing was missing - but that's where all the stuff went. I expect (hope?) you long since found it all, so consider this post General Information for those yet to transfer.


I was delighted to discover the transfer process was fast, easy and simple, hearty compliments to the team who helped make it so. I will miss Gilrain, I found it such a friendly server - but Unity is settling in to Laurelin with a determination to make this move work for us. I confess, I rather enjoyed a bit of Bree RPing, it's the sort of stuff I did for fun anyway. You usually had someone asking you why you bothered to WALK through town and sometimes you got company.....


EDIT: Forgot to say, I want to extend thanks to Aedelric2 for that transfer guide, it was immensely useful.

Yup! I forgot to update my post, but all of my stuff was in my house chests when I bought my houses again, I spent quite some time re-decorating last night.

I have not found any problems with the transfer, and my kinship has 8 pages already. It was 20+ pages on Riddermark, but I expected that the last 10 pages (who had not logged on for 6+ months) wouldn't transfer over anyways, so all in all I am VERY happy with how things are going.

Also, I actually ended up getting most of my names. I have 3 toons out of 16 that got a -1 or -2 for which I need to find new names. I had only RESERVED 3 names up front, my main and two others I cared about, the rest I either couldn't or wouldn't let me, but with the transfers I was able to get most of my names.

The name "Sneekz" is a popular one for burgs. There was an inactive "Sneekz" on Arkenstone. I managed to "bump" that inactive one by making a "Sneekz" on Crickhollow (actually already had one from about a year ago), and move it to Arkenstone during the testing phase. So that inactive Sneekz became Sneekz-1. Then, a Sneekz moved in from Elendilmir which became Sneekz-2, and when I moved yesterday I became Sneekz-3, and this is only after TWO server allowed to transfer. Since I had Sneekz, I deleted that toon, renamed Sneekz-3 back to Sneekz, and now..... there is a "Sneekz" (me), "Sneekz-1" (inactive) and a "Sneekz-2" (elendilmir transfer). Next Sneekz to come in will AT LEAST get "Sneekz-2", as the inactive one will be there, but probably "Sneekz-3".

Case and point: As we move down the line with servers, expect to start seeing more -3 and -4 names.
