So does this mean that Netherwind will have a large Spanish speaking community once the transfers take place? Because I don't think I'm going to transfer off Incendius if this is the case...
I doubt it. The Spanish speaking community in Thalnos wasn't large to begin with.
Hooray! More from Grob can come on over to DD! We still have plenty of room! :D

It's the server with the largest number of spanish speaking and brazilian users, it's clearly not comparable to the volume of users who speak English, but among all servers it is the one with the highest percentage of sp/br users. I hope this percentage stays, at least I will stay in Thalnos.
I would not see a reason to transfer; except for the fact if you want to just be able to login when you come home from work. It'll mostly be for the casual players if anything.
Very interesting! I remember prelaunch all the #nochange'rs wanted there to never be server transfers. Now it seems like a lot of them are begging for it, haha. If only they had just rerolled on a non 5figure wait queue and we could've stayed #nochanges.

I think the primary argument against server transfers is to prevent people from being an asshole, getting a bad reputation, then moving on to the next server without facing any repercussion as often as they'd like.
It appears like Blizzard is actively trying to avoid this. They are only allowing one-way transfers from specific servers to other specific servers. And it's happening early enough where people would have had to gone reallly out of their way to earn a bad rep already. So this one-time transfer seems to address this concern. It is not clear to me if this transfer has a time limit, or if the option will be available forever. But this does seem like an acceptable way to get people with progress invested in a character off a server with queues - especially for people who have not invested in a guild or have many in-game friends playing with them on their server yet. I can see this siphoning off a good chunk of players in the least-invasive way possible.
Anything that gets us closer to a flat server without layers, the better.

That's an incredibly important reason, and I think you did just see it. :lol:
I'm just curious how many people will actually move, it is pretty hard decision to make when you are on healthy populated server and risk going on a new one. I personally will probably stay but we will have to see.
called it!
Relax. We all called it. This is why many of us said layering was stupid. Server transfers and realm merges are inevitable.
Where are the EU server options?

The new realm is always worse. I have never seen the secondary realm grow to the population or activity level that the initial server had. Furthermore this can often magnify faction imbalances on the primary realm when the outnumbered faction decides to leave furthering the imbalance. Just my anecdotal experience.

Good point with the faction imbalance
But at least there are both Firemaw and Gehennas funneling into the new one.

I've not had any issues logging in. No wait times at all. It's been great hope this doesn't destroy that for the server I'm on.
We need more people on Herod, let's make that trend.
