Hey Kethryllia,
Thanks for the reply. This overlooks that not all servers are connected. RP PvP servers like Grobbulus Era (the only place I play this game) still have active communities, which rely on transfers TO Grobbulus FROM Whitemane/Mankirk.
If you look at my forum post history, you’ll see I’ve been actively recruiting for Legacy on Grobbulus Era since 2022. We’ve been around for 3.5 years, and we heavily rely on the transfer service to bring new friends to our server. Sure folks can level from 1 to 60, but that’s a huge ask. We often have folks transfer their 60s from Whitemane to Grobb to play with us.
Without the transfer service, you will likely kill off our ability to recruit and bring in new people to our little farm town server.
Of course, if you enabled FCMs from Whitemane/Mankirk clusters TO Grobbulus, there would be no issues and we’d have an even easier time recruiting. However without this service, you have cut off our ability to bring in new people.
There are about 100 people actively playing on Grobbulus. We love it here. We kill KT, we organize realm events with the opposing guild on the opposite faction, and people who are tried of the GDKP fest on Whitemane have found solace on Grobbulus Era, moving their level 60s over to what is otherwise a “dead server”, which many folks (who already have a 60) don’t want to level up again on.
Please, reconsider shutting down the Paid Transfer Service. Or better yet, enable FCMs TO grobbulus from the other realms.
Yours,
Jarl
