0. Important Update to Paid Character Transfers 08/16/2006 04:27:06 PM PDT
Based on popular feedback, all new realms will now be eligible for Paid Character Transfers after 6 months of being open, instead of the previous 3 months. Realms not yet open for transfers will remain closed for 6 months, meaning if a realm has been open for 2 months, it will require another 4 months in order to be eligible as a transfer destination realm. All realms which are currently available for transfers will remain available. This extension was made to allow communities on new realms enough time to establish their position on the realm before allowing other characters to join.

6 months is not enough.
Sentinels is about 3 months old and probably has 20 lvl 60's on horde side. It'll take much longer than another 3 months to get anybody doing any serious raiding or otherwise make serious progress.
I surely took all the uber doober goober T2 raider types and those who rep grind for recipes and such a lot longer than 6 months to get where they are today.
Waiting a year before allowing the dregs/undesirables/rejects of other servers to transfer in would be much, much better.

will we ever be able to transfer from PVE to PVP? say if something like a level cap was placed in like level 55+ or something, yeah its easier to level but after actually playing on a PVP realm i really liked it.

Wow, Thanks blizzard. My entire guild was looking to transfer off our server, because you refuse to upgrade it and we can't even get through a MC run without dying to lag - it occured 5 times last night. But now because of this policy we can't. Thanks.
Why not transfer to one that is open you might ask? well because we were wanting to go to a PST server - and the only PST servers that blizzard has brought up were either brought up at the very start of wow, or around 06/06. Onyxia and BlackWing were perfect candidates for us to transfer too - we would have only been 2 bosses behind in progression, and they are both PST. Did anyone over there actually look to see that the only realms people can trasnfer too that are relativly new are only in the CST and EST timezones? the newest pst was brought up 6/6. I'm so frustrated right now. The one chance our guild had to be rid of this lag until the expansion and you destroy it.
Not only that, but blizzard recently upgraded a server cluster that was brought up AFTER ours. Thanks guys. Right now my latency is at 1344 and i can't cast any spells - just in durotar. Now i have to tell 90 people that we aren't transferring and we have to deal with the lag. Looks like tonight we are again cancelling raiding because people can't login, and if they do they just lag out. Thanks. Fix Wildhammer.
Everyday i get closer and closer to cancelling my 3 accounts.

Please create a new Oceanic PvE realm and make it open to transfers from day 1. The transfers are clogging up the already lagged/queued Khaz'Goroth server.
