[WvW] World Association not Changing

#1 - April 28, 2014, 2:55 p.m.

So I transferred servers after the first week on the tournament, and it’s been a little over three weeks since that time. However, the battle historian still indicates I am associated with my old world and not my new one.

The in game information is vague, saying that it should change as I “participate” on the WvW maps. I have been very active in WvW since transferring to my new server.

Has anyone else had a similar issue? Do I just have to keep waiting, or am I bugged?

You cannot change worlds during a WvW season. This is from an upcoming KB Article:

A blog post by the WvW team published in early March discussed certain upcoming restrictions on WvW transfers. As of March 28, 2014, players who transfer during a WvW tournament period are unable to participate in WvW combat for up to 14 days. The intention of this limitation is to encourage each player to choose a home world and to play on that world for the duration of the tournament.

When this restriction was implemented, a warning message was added to the world transfer confirmation screen that states the following: “Your WvW accessibility will be restricted to the Edge of the Mists for the duration of the current match and until the end of your world’s next match.” Once someone confirms a world transfer, that restriction applies.
