We expect these free character moves to remain open until 11:00 a.m. PDT (2:00 p.m. EDT) on Monday, September 16. Please note that restrictions apply:

  • A character cannot move if the character:
    • is a guild leader.
    • has active auction listings or bids.
    • has mail.
  • You may be required to change your character’s name once you’ve reached the destination realm.
  • You cannot move a character to a PvP realm where you already have a character belonging to the opposing faction.
  • This is a one-way, irreversible move. Blizzard Customer Support cannot monitor or modify a free character move.

During periods of high usage, free character moves may take up to several hours to complete. This service may be closed at any time, without warning, should a destination realm become full. We strongly encourage players who wish to use this service, especially in coordinated groups, to do so as soon as possible.

Thank you!

Can we get a few more Normal/rp “non pvp” servers open? You have four pvp servers that you just opened and they are low pop all the time. Would be nice to have a few normal servers like that for people to make new toons that aren’t over crowed

Don’t dilute these realms too much guys!

Come on over to Earthfury folks, we have a smaller healthy WPVP scene compared to larger servers that have a bad faction imbalance.

Sigh… no new non transfers? None of these transfer servers appeal to me and 1000s of others

Are there actually still queues? I don’t play during peak hours and I have never seen queues for a week now.

They should be combining all those realms then instead of diluting healthy ones.

Is there anyway I can move my character on Biggleworth to Earthfury where my guild is located? I couldn’t log onto Herod because of the queue times so I was forced to pick another realm, and now that I’m level 41 on a completely different server than the guild I signed up for before launch, I really wish I could transfer my Bigglesworth main to Earthfury :/.

Rattlegore doesn’t need people to xfer off. I’m not sure it’s pushed past a 20-30 minute queue in over a week. Most of the day its medium/high.

they are trying to fill out some of the servers that are low medium pop cuz they added to many extra servers

Merging realms is a lot messier. It also makes it non-voluntary, since people would be merged wheather they like it or not.

Whats alliance like on Earthfury? I am very tempted to move

Also merging realms is bad publicity. It’s basically admitting you messed up and overestimated the need for classic. Which certainly you would not like to admit.

I read this as “a bad fashion sense” at first glance. XD
