    Black hole.

    Seriously: There is an issue with characters having the same IDs on EU and US servers, which would cause problems of course.

    The system should not let you, but if for some reason it did you would cause a tear in the space-time continuum.

    Never cross streams Ray. It would be very bad.

    The Doctor would then hunt you down and kill you or whatever he does.

    I'm *only* getting the option to transfer from an EU server. (I'm on Elendilmir, US) Is there a problem?

    I too am only getting the option to move to EU servers. I'm currently on Brandy, in fact all my characters are on US servers.

    I managed to skip the part that says, "With the patch that has gone live this morning, we have made transfers available to players moving between the following worlds. We will be starting with opening the remaining EU world transfers this morning and then will move to remaining US worlds this afternoon." (This afternoon...)

    You would find yourself having a reservation at the restaurant at the end of the Universe.

    WHAT?!

    But seriously, unless someone has Q in his/her back pocket, under no circumstances attempt an EU <> US transfer if it happens by some strangeness to be available.

    There are other issues, because characters IDs are different for each server (the first bytes of the ID represent the server)

    I don't know anything specific about this, got my information from this quote:

This is not a situation we want to see happen, especially to some of the oldest characters on the servers.

    Nah, I like the real Q much better. ^_^ One of my favorite characters from the entire franchise, and so glad he was in so many episodes.

    I poked a hole in the space-time continuum once and a buncha candy and chocolate spilled out. Turns out the universe is just one ginormous Cosmic Piñata!
