So RDF when? Or you guys shooting for your own #pulltheripcord?
WotLK classic is being run by drunk college interns and a hand full of overseas vendors who have never played World of Warcraft… Good luck getting a BLUE response that makes any sense, or a response at all…
Come to think of it, didn’t they mention they automated the classic forums with AI like the rest of the customer support? Try starting your posts with “Hey Blizzard” and see if you get a response.

With how money hungry Blizzard has proven they are… I am really surprised they have not offered a Classic Fast Pass for an extra $50/month to skip the queue.

The decision to open transfers just underscores how the Blizz devs/management just DO NOT understand the draw of FRESH realms.
Now the economies are screwed, not just from gold xferring over, but from L70s farming ore, manipulating the AH, griefing people who THOUGHT they were going to level on an even playing field.
I was really excited about some fun WPVP at Scarlet Monastery, but I’m sure there will be 70s camping it to one-shot the Ally levelers.
Ugh, makes me want to not even play anymore. Angerforge was building into a really great community too.

They were all on a level playing field. No gold from outside sources. No lvl 70s ganking while lvling.
Angerforge was sold as a fresh experience. Those that went there were told to get it they had to reroll. We did.
Now they are just handing the server to lvl 70 skyfury transfers with all their gold and robbing that fresh server experience from the people that started at lvl 1 and having been climbing up.
They should have. You are correct.
The blue post does not read like it was to be an overflow realm and note that I also thought it would be too but that is not what the blue post says so anyone who trusted Blizzard would have trusted the comment:
This means that poster is wrong and you are right.
He did ask in that thread for the transfers and he seems to have been very upset by the queues. So he got his way. I also highly suspect he will be leaving for Benediction come Wrath and the comments are made for selfish reasons, uncaring about the health of servers, with only thoughts about the short term over the long term. So not a person to be respected.
I don’t really have any skin in this game as I haven’t played fresh but it’s unfortunate that the Fresh start realms won’t long-term be as good as they could be.

Blizzard just ruined our experience by doing this non sense.
Why not even week old and they allow transfers from a full of 70s server!

very savage blizzard, ruin 2 servers and basically commit to creating DOA servers before wrath launches. Excellent jerb body type three

Please do everyone a favor and allow PAID/Free character transfers to servers that players already have a lvl 70 character on. The server does not get more full with a transfer, since I can only actively play 1 character at a time. It actually will help mitigate population since I won’t actively be playing on 2 different servers. I bet thousands of others want the same thing…
My main is a 70 Priest on Whitemane. In wrath I will be playing my 70 Mage that is on Eranikus now. Transferring my mage to Whitemane does not increase the player population. Let me pay you the damn $25 so that I can enjoy the game with my friends instead of being stuck on 2 different servers.

It’s so funny that Blizz made these promises about no transfers and fresh realms and they couldn’t even go two weeks without caving.
This just hurts Blizz’s credibility going forward if they ever create new “fresh realms.” I, for one, will never believe them.

Today Blizzard has lost a customer and fan. Have fun boys, I’m out.

Cry more, this was the correct move by Blizzard. Skyfury was unplayable.
No queues on Skyfury tonight. Thank you for listening! This was absolutely the right call. Not a perfect solution, but the best that could be done quickly. I just hope that if the server population starts to fall on one or both, you consider combining them back later.
There is no queue on Grobbulus and my friend wants to make a character to play with all his friends there. Is it possible to unlock it, or at least let some character creation happen?

Allow character creation on sulfuras please. Don’t just lock the server randomly.
Yes, “cry more”. Blizzard sacrificed one server to appease yours. Congrats.
Oh noooo, thousands and thousands of people on Skyfury can now play the game. How awful. Those couple hundred on Angerforge are totally worth the thousands on Skyfury. Sorry, that’s not how the world works.
Whines to get way… calls out others for whining…
Apparently the world works by whining like a douche until you get your way, then acting like a true desktop coward to the ones that you screwed.

Blizzard, the locks are understandable, except for the fact that people with characters on Locked servers cannot transfer any alts on other servers to their main. People want to consolidate their roster for a new expansion and you are completely preventing this. Just like boosted characters and new characters can be created by those who already play on the the locked servers - so too should paid character xfers be unlocked for these accounts.

You should really disable being able to transfer free dks, at least before completing the story.
You can load up 10 death knights on 1 server if you want. Unless you want their transmute be worth nothing.
