Many, many people have been waiting for this, unwilling to pay for the client twice.

This, and the patched free expansion in two weeks will make a new "age" for DF  : )

Just dont hope to see EU-1 emty until then.

Pretty sad they lack the ability to transfer a character's items over. Then again the game is pretty sad overall.

Great job genius

Fact is they wanted to balance the abilities and items that each character had. Since EU started 6 months in advance they could just bring dozens of ships, money, items and construction materials and totally wipe out the NA1 guilds, and the economy.

But you didnt think of that - did you now? ;)

After the way the forums have been the last couple days, these kinds of posts are just becoming more and more embarrassing for the poster. 

The next few weeks are going to be interesting to say the least. I sense my young Mahirim character will be jumped much more than usual. Should be fun.

People still play this game?

Excuse me?

Aventurine really needs to think ahead more.  They should have known about this free character transfers when NA-1 was launched.  If this information was provided when the NA server came out, it would have prevented some nerd rage, including mine, and may have kept some of their customers.  Of course, if they did not know the details of the character transfers, they should have stated just that.  "We are still working out the details and will provide more information as soon as we know ourselves."  How is that bad for business?  Keeping their customers in the dark affects these mmo's more negatively than doing them any good.
