    You need to be all-access to receive your "free" transfer that we were promised. If you are all access maybe try logging out and back in?

    It's only free compared to the usual $24.99 price tag. I saved up enough SC back in the day and pounced on them when they went on sale during the Pro7 scare for all my Splitpaw toons, just in case...all 9 of them. X-P

    Not if you're on the same account and just moving from one server to another; it's really easy. :)

    Relatively; just make sure you follow the official instructions at the beginning of this thread for moving. Mostly, make SURE your Shared Bank is cleared out, and make sure you pick up any items you have in other people's houses or guild halls so those items can go with you. Unpublish houses, dungeons, etc. And your guilds won't transfer with you, even if you're the leader. I think that's about it, but check with the official steps at the beginning.

    It won't be in an email; it'll be in an in-game mail. It should be; logging out and in again should help.

    If you've paid by Krono, like me, make sure they have it officially noted as being there in your character sheet, near the bottom.

    I did but the prestige houses for 2 of my characters did not show up.

    Ok, first character transferred after second attempt. However her house is gone! It was a newbie house in Halas and I did not have anything that I cannot replace, (assuming I can get another tradeskill apprentice).

    I am not afraid to move anymore, because of the houses disappearing. I have prestige houses with significant items counts including depots which are not cheap to replace!.

    I do hope the housing issue does get addressed.

    I still appreciate this opportunity to transfer characters! A very decent thing to do! :)

    Make sure you do a /petition for those; the GMs are busy fielding those. :-/

    I really lucked out, apparently; haven't lost anything yet... :-/

    Again, /petition. This won't be anything new for the Powers. :-/

    You're not afraid to move? You're brave! :)

    I imagine it will be, 'cause there'll be a lot of rage if it isn't, I'm sure. :-/

    This is true! :)

    Darn typos; the "W" and "T" are fairly close to each other. :)

    Most probably have done this but for those who haven't moved yet and are worried about your houses, make sure you save the layout then go into where your eq2 folder is and copy and open it with notepad and save it to word, notepad something on your desktop for quick access and to give a exact list if needed to the gm helping you with your house issues.
  12. Uwkete-of-Crushbone Well-Known Member

    Exactly! Excellent point; we should remind the Powers to itemize this on their "what to do when you transfer" list. :)

    A little upset that you have to be All-Access to transfer..

    Darn! I am so nervous now about houses not transfering. My priority for characters to move now are those that never did claim their special houses. LoN houses and CE houses just are not worth the risk of losing... :(

    Can either be done Krono as a one-time deal or recurring subbing for $14.99/month.

    I went the Krono route, so I wouldn't have to remember to shut off the auto-pay feature. ;->

    This is a request for Roshen and or Holly to respond to my original post, as well as to others that posted concerning the same thing. I am all access, but for those who are not, I am asking for an explanation as to why Roshen added the prerequisite of having to be all access to be able to transfer.....and why Holly's original FAQ concerning the "free transfer for everyone that moved is not being honored". All who play this game are part of the EQ2 community, and I feel that the entire community deserves to know why this happened. I see that you, Roshen, responded to other posts, but not one response to the sudden change regarding the free transfers.

    Sincerely,
    ~Rose~

    All this mess reminds me back then as I was gone for a bit from the game. As I returned I found almost all friends gone as SOE split the server into Crushbone and AB. They also offered a time limited server switch with a ridicolus short time frame. Well, that was the day the game died for me as they pulled the carpet from beneath my paws and with it my rp friends.
    I had no idea I would see this happening again.

    So after finally finishing my moves of my 14 toons, 5 lost their names and 2 lost all of thier homes :/ So hopefully the homes get fixed.

    I have transferred my characters a lot of times through the years and to the houses not showing subject sometimes it takes a while and a few reboots for them to show up. For f2p players my husbands account was also f2p to transfer him I just went and bought a krono for the time to move his toons over.
