Paid Transfers to PvE Servers Should be Allowed

What you are really saying is poor choices were made and instead of taking the time and energy to re roll on a PVE server folks want to buy their way out.
Choices have consequences. Why not instead think of it as a life lesson.

Well you know, you gotta play on a pvp server to get an authentic experience.

Or, since paid transfers were in vanilla, they should become available here, is the reality of the situation.

Although I do think there’sbeen a gross overreaction and it’s only been 5 days since the honor system was implemented, this is far worse than it ever was in vanilla, even during the two months (April - June 2005) there was honor but no bgs. 24/7 nonstop ganking, people can’t even get to the dungeons to run them like they’re being told to do to avoid the constant camping and still get xp.

It’s also understandable people wouldn’t want to give up days played on a character. Although I rerolled to PvE and couldn’t be happier right now.

how about pvp to pvp server transfer so i can just go on an est server? :smiley:

The solution there is to simply start a new server and enable the transfers to that server. Also, you could (see above comment/recommendation) to limit the move to a one-time transfer. Takes the pressure valve off without sacrificing anything else.

Sometimes choices bite you in the butt. That is life.

Again, not what this post is about. There is no good reason for not providing a properly structured, paid realm transfer. I do not believe that Blizzard set out to “teach people a lesson” by being stuck with a choice to join a PvP server. This post is stakes out a position (please read above) and I have yet to see a substantive, measured response which disproves the main position of the post. #stillwaiting

Anyone who would pay upwards of $50 to move a character between realms is a) a whale, which blizzard adores, and b) is a fool for not simply starting fresh on the target realm, and enjoy meeting new friends and guildmates.

You will wait a long time. Look we get it. You guys made some poor choices and instead of admitting that and re rolling you want Blizzard to give you transfer to PVE realms. You made a choice and now you come crying on the forums about transfers.
The only thing that should happen is transfers from PVP to another PVP server.
It is your fault and yours alone for making a toon on a PVP server. You can cry to the cows come home how unfair it is or you can be an adult and fix it yourself.
Throwing a temper tantrum on the forums about how reasonable your suggestion is when met with opposition is getting you nowhere.

Didn’t say it was fair or unfair. Simply that not a single reason (even your post) has been put forth as to a good rationale for not allowing paid transfers. “Live with your choices” and “it’s your fault” are not thought through reasons. We pay to play this game, “fixing it ourselves” is exactly what a paid realm transfer allows for. The alternative is re-roll or quit, and this posts position (again) is that those options (while there) serve no one’s best interests, including Blizzard’s. Characterizing it as a “temper tantrum” is simply an ad hominem attack intended to get to my credibility as a person, not the merits of the argument.

@Karix – PVE servers already exist. And the post’s suggestion is to allow one way character transfers from PVP to PVE servers. The game exists in both forms (i.e. it is not “imaginary” as you have stated). And has been noted in above threads, transfers existed in Vanilla long before this re-release of the game. Simply no merit in your argument as it resorts to “its your fault, so now you have to start over” which, again, is not a good argument. #stillwaiting

If transfers existed in Vanilla from PVP to PVE servers, then it is reasonable to request the same in Classic. You are right.

If enough players do that, then Blizzard may need to open up another PVE realm (there are only 9). But we still have queues after 12 weeks of Classic, so Blizzard may have to do that anyway.

This choice was made when you chose to roll a PvP server. Just because you don’t know the consequence doesn’t mean you get a freebie off the server.

Reroll.

@Clikclikboom – its not a “freebie” if you pay for it. Next argument. #stillwaiting

Hashtags don’t work on these forums, take your cancel culture to twitter and scream into the void.

So? What’s it to you how others want to spend their money? You’re not entitled to a persons presence on your server.

Very insightful. You deviated from giving me a direct answer to my specific question. Lmao

this guy deff plays horde in classic and has no clue about the op’s simple request, which was available in vanilla. only a horde player could be so vague

Again, don’t’ think your threats are doing much good. And it proves my point. There are other options you just don’t want to re roll or accept your poor choice.
Look nobody twisted your arm to make a toon on a PVP server. You made that choice. Now live with it or re roll on a PVE.
Stop stomping your feet and demanding the only thing you will accept is transfer to a PVE realm.
