That would be a problem... but if you retain correct side on test for token boards etc, I would think it's an easy stat to retain org name also? Thats not a a client side stat only otherwise you couldnt do character lookups (!whois) or on auno right?Quote:

if i'd have to guess, your solja is orgless?Quote:

Most of what I see here is speculation. If you don't know by now FC is going to do it the way that is esiest for them. To find out how that goes try to find someone who is actally still playing who came over from the German server. It went quite easily for FC transfer whatever toons you want to keep even if it means deleting some of your toons on the server you are transferring to and loose the rest, but remember you only have 8 slots so choose wisely. If you think FC is going to give extra slots to transfer toons you are dreaming that was proven when they shut down the German server. Deal with it people it is going to be unpleasant and many loyal subscribers will leave AO because AO is not being loyal to them. Also giving more benefits to froobs only brings more froobs and without paying subscribers the game is done anyway. I've been playing this game since 05 and just wish FC would do something one way or another and stop some of this speculation. Jeez how hard can it be to make a decision!
VAUGHN2006, as you've been told before:
No characters will be deleted during or after the transfer, even if your total amount of characters exceeds 8.
There is no need to keep repeating the same misinformation regarding this subject.
LALALALALALA I STILL CAN'T HEAR YOU OMG THEY'RE DELETEING ALL CHARACTERS IM GONNA RAGE QUIT FC DOESNT CARE ABOUT THIS GAME DOOM AND GLOOM EVERYHTING SUCKSQuote:

Which of these scenarios will be the case or are you doing something different? Just saying it won't happen doesn't say how it won't happen.Quote:

Why should you even worry about the implementation details now when it doesn't matter (and it's likely not something set in stone in any event). Just be happy with the fact that you will not lose any of your characters.Quote:

You can't create any more characters on that account until you get it down to 7 or lower since 16 > 7.
I've no idea if that's what they will do but I don't know why people keep harping on the 8 character limitation as if it's something that would prevent them completely from being able to merge characters from both servers. It's merely there to prevent YOU from creating more than 8. As Vhab said:

HAHA
"No characters will be deleted during or after the transfer"
not entirely true your informative Vhab
they deleted the db from rk3(DNW)
and now some old player return after reading something "commercial" about AO
and "NO TOON LEFT"
one payed for 3 empty acc´s now
a other for 2 empty acc´s
and
and
and
answer.....
yeah they send out some mails and free month but not every receive one
and now they have to start over new......
FORGET IT
they QUIT
no 50$ left for a stupid memory card or the time for a necessarily transfer !
HEY
the AUNO db got their toon´s with name and level
and it is not wasting time to help
i need 15 min if u give me ur "spawn" codes to restore up to 90% one toon
enough to keep old players.
activate "AUTO" from testlife here that they can restore herself.
care about ur customers
the toons themselves merge fusion-dance style. so you'll have 1 toon with 2 toons' worth of perks gear implants and nanos.Quote:

I know everyone can make fun of this VAUGHN2006 guy or whatever but many of us were around when they closed down the german server and their only option was to move to RK1, RK2 or both. If they had toons already on either RK1 or RK2 and a full set of 8 toons on the german server their only option was to either move some of their toons to another account (i.e. forced to pay for another account), move some toons to RK1 and some to RK2 or simply leave their toons behind (which to my understanding eventually became unavailable for transfer).
So laugh all you want, and I appreciate Vhab stepping in to say that toons won't be deleted.. but how about shedding some light on what other options Funcom is considering. Has the 8 char per account limit been overcome such that it won't be an issue?
I'm sorry, but the track-record of Funcom on this type of thing is bad (based off the german server situation) so its not like people expressing concern about this are psychos running around claiming that the sky is falling. It is a very legit concern.
