Station Exchange First Step

Beginning Saturday July 2 nd 2005, players can submit a request for their characters to be transferred to an Exchange-enabled server. When Station Exchange officially launches, flagged characters will be transferred to an Exchange-enabled server. Station Exchange is currently scheduled to officially launch mid-July.

Players can elect to move their characters at no additional cost from now until 14 days after the official launch of Station Exchange. After that period, players who wish to transfer their characters to an Exchange-enabled server must use the standard Character Transfer Service and pay any applicable fees. Once Station Exchange launches, players may create new characters on the Station Exchange server at no additional subscription cost.

At the time of the official launch, there will be two Station Exchange servers, The Bazaar and Shadowhaven. Characters on Guk, Unrest, Kithicor, Butcherblock, Lucan Dlere, Everfrost, Oggok, Lavastorm, Permafrost, Oasis, Innothule, and Steamfont have the option to move to The Bazaar. Characters from Najena, Blackburrow, Antonia Bayle, Nektulos, Highkeep, Toxxulia, Neriak, Grobb, Befallen, Crushbone, Mistmoore and Faydark can elect to move to Shadowhaven.

Starting today, any character that types the "/movelog add" command will be added to the list of characters to be moved to the Exchange-enabled servers.

Guild leaders who choose to take advantage of this offer will be able to move their guild name, level, and status to the new server. If you would like to move your guild to the new server or wish to be moved along with your guild, please be aware of the following details:

• If a guild member elects to switch servers but the guild leader is not moving the guild, the character will be unguilded following the transfer since the guild does not exist on the new server.
• If the guild leader decides to move the guild but an individual member decides not to go, the member will not be in a guild following the guild's move since the guild now exists on a different server.
• We recommend that the guild leader be the first to register to move the guild by using the "/movelog add" command. Once the members have been informed that the guild is moving, all members who wish to move with their guild should issue the "/movelog add" command.
• In order for guild membership and status to carry over to the new server, members need to be moved at the same time their guild does. If a guild leader chooses to move a guild, guild members who fail to issue the "/movelog add" command before their guild is transferred to the new server will be deguilded. If that guild member elects to move to the new server during a later phase, previous guild membership and standing will not be restored. Since we may offer multiple opportunities to transfer servers, guild leaders and members should coordinate their moves so that everyone chooses the movelog option within the same window for their server.
• The guild's level and status will be dependent upon patrons moving along with the guild. If patrons choose not to move, it will be as if they quit the guild, so the guild's level and status will be adjusted accordingly.
