When will the SOM servers, and presumably the free character transfers, be shut down for good?
The obvious incentive to stay on SOM is because of the 100% XP boost while leveling. As an aside, feel free to move this buff to regular CE servers 
Considering our characters will be deleted permanently, I think it is fair to expect that we get a date where this is going to happen.

Same, I would like to know if we only have a few weeks left, or more, since the SoM characters still have the leveling buff.
As a side note, has anyone had issues transferring both Alliance + Horde to Whitemane? I see they removed the PvP restriction.

Last I heard, SOM is supposed to shutdown by the end of this year. Once the date is set, we are supposed to have a period of time where we can freely transfer our SOM toons to the Classic Era or Lich King Classic server of our choice.
u can already transfer to era or wotlk they want a date for when u can no longer play som

Seriously. I wish people would stop trying to get era stuff added and going. If people want a classic+ it should all be on a fresh server or just som2

I was told towards the end of November it would and that we would be able to move our toons to Classic live for a limited time and then SOM will shut down forever and that they may make a second and final SOM that will run again but with slightly different playstyle than the first one. That is from the conversation I had with a GM about a year ago involving this stuff.
Trasnfers opened up to Locked realms? LF transfer to Atiesh.
Would be nice to know an exact date since Iâd like to keep leveling before transferring off.

I donât get why the closure date for SoM wasnât included in any of the announcements about the transfers, or why no one from Blizzard has bothered to give a date on any of these forum posts.
This shouldnât be some big secret; they should just tell us what the date for server closure is.

I get the feeling that very few devs think about Classic Era anything.
Most are probably focused on Classic Cata now. 
I want to believe that not even they are stupid/insane enough to really release âClassic Cataâ

Not gonna lie, I would play a season of mastery Wotlk server once classic wrath is finished.
