Due to population differences between some of the highest and lowest populated PvP realms, the following Free Character Migration will be available November 14th to 20th:

From: Al'Akir, Burning Legion, Magtheridon, Twilight's Hammer
To: Burning Blade, Laughing Skull, Spinebreaker

Please note that the migration may be closed at any time should a destination realm's population rise too high.

Q u o t e:
Just wondering, isn't a bit much to put the same realms up again and again in such a short time? (for example - burning legion was up for a migration move about 2 weeks ago), hasn't this lead to some serious problems before with other realms (causing mass moves and making the realm really low pop).

Just curious.

A valid concern, and one we're keeping in mind at all times. We haven't seen any migration source realm drop heavily in population so far though, and always make sure to include the highest populated realms.

We might at least take a break in the migration soon. While the number of people moving is still significant for the target realms, that number will naturally decline with repeated migrations.

Q u o t e:
Im sorry you are very much wrong! You opened a migration from bladefist to Genjuros and a couple of guilds left, a short while after you again opened migration from bladefist to Outland and every single guild left and left bladefist dead :(

Please ensure you facts are right before you make a bold statement as you have done.
he is talking about the recent transfers, not about the ones from dunnowhat years ago

Indeed. The post I responded to was about the current transfers including e.g. Burning Legion multiple times. If a realm is used as a source realm multiple times, it means all times but possibly the (currently) last one didn't lead to a significant drop.

Closing and unsticking this as the migration is now closed.
