I'll send yet another reminder to our UC Task Force. As mentioned repeatedly in this thread, reviewers are supposed to operate on the "first submitted, first reviewed" principle. Meanwhile, I'm closing this duplicate thread to avoid confusion.

I know and understand your frustration. It's shared here as well. But, we already have two threads on this topic: one on the current situation, and one on upcoming changes that will drastically improve how User Content is processed. UC 2.0 is in fact in testing right now and should be live by the end of the month, so I'd suggest reading the devlog and the associated thread, and posting any additional suggestions there.

Meanwhile I'll close this duplicate thread to prevent any confusion.

I think you missed an earlier post. If you have a society that wants to go to another server and you have troubles with a cap limit, contact our support and we'll make sure you can all go to the same server. That's true for all societies on affected servers, not just Bonnie.

Transfer credits have been added to characters that have already moved from Bonny to somewhere other than Antigua and from Bonnet/Bellamy/Hornigold to somewhere other than Roberts. If you moved away from Bonny and would like to now go to Antigua, you should be able to do that now.

Ok, here's the deal...

We don't want to split the community on Bonny among a bunch of different servers, and you've made it clear that you don't want that either. If you have a character on Bonny, you will be able to transfer to Antigua no matter what. If server transfer caps end up being put in place on Antigua they will not apply to people coming from Bonny. Bonny players are welcome to move somewhere other than Antigua if you like, but I encourage you to move to Antigua if you don't have a strong preference for one of the other servers.

At the same time, a somewhat similar situation exists for EU players on Bellamy, Bonnet, and Hornigold so we are offering the same thing there. Any players on Bonnet, Bellamy, or Hornigold can transfer their characters to Roberts regardless of server transfer caps. A more official sounding announcement of this will be posted soon in English, French, and German. I was hoping to get the the translations ready before talking about this, but they are still going through that process and people are transferring already.

I hope that this will help relieve some of the pain of this process. In case you already transferred from one of these servers and would like to go to Antigua or Roberts now, we are going to give you a second transfer credit for those characters. Those should appear within the hour.

Thanks for your patience,


Joe

Does this mean that the tickets filed will have a good chance of being denied?
If you move your society at the same time you won't have a problem. If there are a few stragglers, have them file support tickets and we'll take care of them.

If you have a big society to move, I would appreciate it if you moved sooner rather than later. We aren't going to split you up, but it would make life easier for you (fewer support tickets to write) and us (fewer support tickets to process.) If something happens where you need to transfer to a certain server to stay with your guild and you can't, though, file a ticket and we'll take care of you.

Sorry folks, this is taking longer than I thought it would. Give me another half an hour and I'll get you a real update.
