Coalition of Silverlode Kins vote for server transfer

[TinaSlode]

Because RR have not decided yet. My little Kin "Friends of the Nine" was thinking Landroval but am leaning towards Gladden or Arkenstone. Sounds to me that everyone and their cousin is going to Landy and that is a little too many for my taste, although I would miss a lot of you like crazy.

there is others on list which are not decided soo why RR is not :O

[beaglefan61]

Why Rhunen Rendir still not on list?they are important pve/pvp kin and Wardens of Justice are 2 times listed

We are awaiting word from RR. Ty for correction on Wardens that correction will be made. Time to put in alphabetic order maybe

[Comstrike]

Regardless as to where people go (though you should all come to Landroval) I invite folks to plan ahead to LOTRO Conclave V next August. We are going with the theme "Reunions" and it will be a great time and place for folks to meet-up with friends new and old.

Details develop over the course of the year but you can learn more about the event at LOTROcon.com. We also did a preview video ahead of year three, which I'm working on updating for next year.

Thank you for the updates both of you. Glad to hear Nazgun going Landroval. And yeah what you say about Friends of the Nine not going with the rest missing some of us, is why this is being done. Looking up and seeing Lords of the Brotherhood, Nazgun, Hispania, etc around on another server well it would feel like . . . home to many of us. Whichever way you decide i hope it works out great for you. If there at Landy, give me a wave by all means

[Chickenist]

by the way, Does anyone know where prokion is going to transfer?

if we could avoid him, we will do for it....

[Sauron2112]

lol chicken, I agree with you, I may end up wherever you go then, haha.

RAGE : thinking of moving to Landroval
Enraged : (creep tribe) also Landroval

The Eldar : undecided we tossed it around a bit last night and will probably go where most Silverlode goes as many of us have raided with TWC, RP, RR, Razaor Sharp, Taba, etc.

Razor Sharp: still working to get in touch and find out their plans, hope to reach out to a few people tonight on that after work.

Awesome! Awaiting word from The Eldar and Razor Sharp among others. Thanks for word and ty to RR for update. Good luck on your vote whichever way it goes.

Our little weeny kin "the Minds of Moria" is still undecided, though I've ruled out Arkenstone as my main toon's name is not available and I've been using that name since Everquest. Since there are only 3 active members of our kin left, I doubt we will make a big impact on the transfer.

[PGR]

Can someone tell me if lotro knows about the coalition of kins. I'm concerned that Landy might fill up (slow down the server) and they close it to the later transfers. They may not be able to do anything about it, but then we will have a better idea of where our future lies.

[PGR]

I'm told that there is no issue with enough space or capacity (speed) of the server. Landry, here we come

[beaglefan61]

From thread with our exec producer replying:



Question: Aside from Brandywine, is there a chance of the other severs becoming closer during the transfer process as they fill up? I'd like to transfer to Landroval but cant until i return from a trip in September. I worry about it filling up in that time.
This is unlikely. Brandywine population is vastly larger than even the next most populated server.

And welcome....when you get here. Don't forget to mark the date for Symphony of Light VI, 8/22. And for those Kinships, we are awarding some form of something to Kinships that attend and ride in the journey from the Shire to Rivendell. Big or small, I'm welcoming Kinships to organize and ride with the masses.

I'd love if our kinship would be there for Symphony of Light VI! But I believe we won't, since the transfer hasn't even started for other servers. Maybe I can get some of us to create chars there just to be a part of that event... At what time will the event take place, servertime?

What time on the 22nd, I will let our kinship ~ Rising Phoenix ~ know of this - sounds like fun.
We held a horse race in Bree last weekend - was alot of fun to have folks from other kinships enjoy our Monthly Meet and Greet.

Current plan for Razor Sharp is Landroval, Gladden as secondary choice.

Lost Army - Landroval, 2nd choice Gladden

The Lost Army now has LANDY as our first choice. We hope to see many of our friends after the move!

[Fatefoot]

Well for what it's worth, I'm moving our accounts over to Landroval where most friends seem to be going... that would be a kinship

Overdown -> Landroval

Ricard told me his kinship are also moving there but I can't find it listed. Subject to confirmation that would be: The Enduring -> Landroval

Glad all our friends are going to the same place - can't say I wanted to have to make a choice having been out of game so long.

Thanks for organizing this

[devdor]

Not that I think you guys will remember me but I transferred of slode at lvl 85 and you all prob don't care at all but I'm going to arkenstone with my kin. When I first started playing I played on slode made a lot of friends. At lvl 85 I transferred off slode to nimrodel it was a tough choice to make and it was hard. Would be nice to maybe see some old friends on arkenstone!

[Fatefoot]

Not that it changes anything about the choices kinships/players have already made, but I re-read the thread and noticed references to Brandywine not being an option.

My understanding of the dev blog is that only off-world transfers are available initially. When Brandywine is moved to the new server and has become stable, incoming player transfers will be allowed.

Just for information... I'll try to find the reference and link it if anyone is interested. I'm still going for Landroval until/unless friends change their minds or I found out something really nurgly about Landroval which is unlikely - it looks like a good fit.

What I don't understand is why new housing areas aren't being created on the surviving worlds which are reserved for automatic transfers of houses to the same addresses (maybe different homestead names) in the new areas before anyone can buy a new house in them. That would mean an existing neighborhood would move without the deadwood of the ghost town houses. I mean we bought and abandoned a BUNCH of houses to acquire just the right real estate over the years so it seems sad that we won't be able to get anything like as good a group of houses in the same neighborhoods. But that's an entirely different matter and off topic... just a little quiet rant I guess

Yes i remember you being around talking on glff Devdor. Some good kins are coming your way and you should be able to meet up with a few old friends hopefully. I will be in the Landroval group myself. Hope it all goes well there on Ark for you and those going.
Take good care

Some word had come around about Brandywine being an option. When word about the different servers came for how they were people were leaning toward the overall feel of Landroval during the coalition meetings (those were BIG meetings), especially descriptions given during the first meeting. Brandywine does have some advantages as do all the servers. Some will want to go there i am sure. Thanks for the update on the information.

And for the housing yes hopefully that will work out all okay. I won't say i spend a ton of time in my own but it is so nicely color coordinated with all the right touches and the address is just right also. It seems off topic yet all relates to concerns about moving. We can hope it works out right.

Take good care

I have been on Gladden and do enjoy the people there. When on Landroval i was taken aback by how busy yet peaceful world chat was and everyone was warm and welcoming. They were worried about how transfers would affect their warm community. We can just hope the servers which were really good before this will remain so. Good luck on Gladden, it is a good server. BTW, if not going to landy you can still do a toon there for the Sons of Numenor Symphony of Lights celebrating the birthday of Bilbo and Frodo on 22nd Sept 8 to 12 PM US east i think. They will escort lowbies if you want to roll up a toon for the fest. They are planning over 10,000 fireworks in Riv close to Elrond's cozy little abode this year.
