Free Character Transfers for Burning Crusade Classic Realms

LOL Imagine actually rerolling and leveling to 70 only to have to grind rep to get attuned again. Oh god. Take my money blizzard, you win.

They should never have offered transfers, period. They force people to either quit or reroll, then merge servers down the road to fix balance issues and it’s so much easier on literally everyone. Them and us. Nope. They make… WAY more money this way, even if people quit.

It’s been done before. Painful as it sounds.

Please let the Thunderfury guys transfer their characters, La mayoria son latinos y quieremos irnos a un servidor mejorar, por favor !

I’ve been a hunter main since actual vanilla.

I think I’m aloud to make fun of the class I have played for over 10 years lol.

Please remove PVE > PVP restrictions, even just for a small time frame so we can rescue our stranded alts and move them to the server we actually play on

Netherwind is now a low pop server, could you please enable free Xfer from netherwind now ?

I prefer playing on the weaker side of PvP servers but this community has proven that they are so quick to abandon a server if they are not on the dominant side. Accordingly, I did not transfer to a weaker faction server due to the risk of it dying out quickly.

I wish Blizzard would have spent more effort at trying to keep PvP servers somewhat balanced.

fairbanks alliance please

Kaivax can you actually reply to this thread and address people’s questions and concerns instead of just ignoring everyone?

I get that there’s an ungodly amount of red tape at Blizzard but from what I remember better communication was a goal - can we have some of that?

Did paid transfer from Kirtonos → Faerlina as Kirtonos was becoming one sided. Guess it’s time to do another one.
Nice job Blizzard.

Netherwind listed as low, yet no free transfers for us (for some unknown reason)

Everyone transferring to the full servers, medium pop servers which should have been the only option are now dying and will quickly become low pop, perpetuating the same problem you are trying to solve.

Why Benediction is even on this list or open to trasnfer to is beyond me.

Struggling mediums like mine aren’t on the list yet realms already overcrowded are on the list. It doesn’t make ANY sense unless the goal is to make population problems worse. I’d love to see them try to explain this nonsense but that would mean they’d have to reach for the keyboard and type text. They just can’t be bothered.

We have to face the reality that a handful of cherry picked realms will have 95% subs while all the others are left to rot. Personally, if my realm dies, I’m unsubbing until wrath. We really needed transfers, but Blizzard didn’t even put us on the list. I’m glad we are not a source, or that would sent us right to the grave, but we’re still no better off than we were before.

Thanks to the enlightened ones at blizzard Netherwind is now low pop. Free transfers now.

Thanks to free transfers, the butterfly effect of xfer away from medium pop servers only gained strengh. I’ve been playing on the Netherwind server since the beginning of TBCC, and a server that was previously considered HIGH pop is now given LOW pop. We are already with less than 2k players (according to the ironforge website) and in next week some more guilds will retire. The only solution is to include the population of the Netherwind server for a free transfer, otherwise the server will just continue to the inevitable and fatidical death.

that will take about a month if not faster for the server to die from the first of september to the 6th of october we lost 1600 people half the server population
the alliance faction died in 2 MONTHS from 2600 people to less than 300

Do we have any idea when these free transfers are going to end? Will we be notified?

Things are brutal. Netherwind’s population has almost halved in the past month, to the point where it went from being listed as a Medium-sized server to now appearing as “Low.” It’s impossible to find people to do anything with, even at “peak” times.

I transferred my main to Benediction, and since doing that, I noticed that I’ve started raid logging. I’m not sure if the game is just less fun without my alts, or I’ve finally outgrown it (and Blizzard’s mismanagement of it). I also can’t justify paying to move my alts over in an experimental attempt to restore any enjoyment I once had for it.

To be honest, I was debating unsubbing once the next raid tier came out anyway. I’m not a fan of the raid content in P3, and this is probably the nail in the coffin. For those in a similar position, vote with your wallet.
