Evidently it’s hitting the servers (or the billing servers that handle it, or something) harder than expected, but the (pay) service to (a) transfer a toon to another server, or (b) rename your toon is now officially up. Woot.<\/p>\n
Once upon a time, I would have seriously done a lot of capering about regarding this, but it’s been several months at least since I’ve been highly server-centric, or had a group of friends that I Really Truly had to hook up with regularly on a given server. Instead, I have various duos scattered about that Margie and I play, as well as a ton of alts across all the servers as the mood seizes me.<\/p>\n
That said, I could see possibly gathering some folks together in one place to do a particular activity — the $9.95 isn’t meaningless, but it would cost more than that to meet some friends for dinner. Or I could see wanting to pull some alts together to create yet more Margie\/Dave duos. We’ll see.<\/p>\n
As for renaming — I can think of only one toon I might consider (changing Psi-clone back to the original Psiclone I had in mind) — but only if the name was free. Other than that, no sawbuck-worthy regrets over character names, at least for now.<\/p>\n
What amazes me is the folks who sound utterly frantic to transfer their toon Right Now. Come on, guys — wait until tomorrow, or Friday, when the lines die down. Really.<\/p>\n
Now, what is kind of interesting is the speculation about whether certain servers will see a major drop or rise in population, based on reputations as PvP or RP or whatever servers — or, alternately, if those reputations will become self-fulfilling prophecies. It will be interesting to see if any stats come out of this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
