Maintain forum activity/history after server transfer

Since I just recently transferred this character, am I SoL on post history and trust level progress? I know the “forum name” internally is basically ‘character-server’ but seems pretty silly that if I transfer my main posting character I lose basically all forum privileges and post history that I had.

The only workaround is to create a character back on the server you left with the same name. That character becomes the forum’s idea of who owns your prior posting history.

I believe Blizzard is working on making forum identity more consistent with in-game identity, but it hasn’ t happened yet.

Yeah I actually changed another character’s name to retain the one I had on the prior server, but since I’m not gonna play it a whole lot I’d rather just…have my actual posting main. Here’s hoping they roll out changes eventually.
