    Why should those with factions back on RT with the letters RT at end have to PAY to change it back. It was YOUR fault. YOU fix it.

    I agree, this is utter ****. Force change names, then suddenly offer items on sale to fix that forced change. Even worse with the fact that the majority of players more than likely never wanted the merges in the first place.

    Don't be jealous of my boogie.

    i am deffinitley pissed off with having HL post fix on half of my chars. Give us FREE identity stones to all chars with a post fix. This merge is for PWI's benefit not the players so we should be compensated for the inconveniace it has caused.

    The character order has been changed, on the left there are 2 see-through arrows that are meant to scroll through all the characters you have from both servers, just push on the 'down' arrow and your characters should appear.

    Nuuu, we are supposed to fight for dominance tiger-2.gif

    And now out of curiosity: I tried to made a character with my name before merge on Sanctuary, but couldn't because name was taken. But I didn't get suffix after merging. Does it mean they really made it dependant on character creation date? Same happened with my friend, so I don't really think, someone created and deleted chars with our names right before merging.

    That doesn't seem to be the case since the char I made on Morai with my name definitely came after my HL char and my HL char was the one that ended up with the suffix. p;​​

    Good to see so many new people, the ping is understandably high - about ~300 now whilst I had ~75 for East servers

    Event times and TW times really need changing if not the game is going to be way less fun

    Yeah, I didn't think that Sanctuary doesn't get suffixes at all. Then don't know what to think, but glad it turned out like that with name at least.

    well did your server switch to a different continent, that might be part of the reason, although it shouldnt be as high as 400
    No it shouldn't

    Looks like the ping isn't really as bad as they are making out.
    Or maybe it's something with their route to the server.

    (BTW, just for reference, I'm in the Great Lakes area)​​

    Mine shows about the same ping as yours for EU at the server selection screen. Mine jumps to 400+ once i'm actually ingame though.

    Deleting this post, as I found the issue.

    If anyone was having the same trouble as I was...finding your other toons....

    Click the arrows in the middle of the left hand side of the screen. It's vague and hard to see against the background...but it is there. That fixed it for me anyways.

    has there been any response about the Acc Stash stone oopsie?

    I submitted a ticket and got a reply saying "We appreciate your patience as we worked to resolve this issue" and "The account stash will be doubled in size if you had an account stash opened on both servers" which of course I did, and it was, until I removed some of the items.

    For now I guess I am to assume they are working on it and will fix it, as they acknowledge that it is supposed to be a double size Account Stash (they C/P the FAQ point that said that it would be double).

    Time will tell...

    In-game is round-trip where the selection screen is one way. I don't go much above 250 in-game though. You might want to reset your modem and flush your DNS cache.​​

    The double account stash size was never meant to be permanent. Just temporary so you wouldn't lose items during the merge if your stash was full. So once you removed items it reverted back to what it is supposed to be. It's not a glitch and it won't be fixed. Some people keep an item on the 4th line in the stash just to keep it double size. That is an exploit.

    Your compensation is that you still have your characters. Else they would have been vaporized with unique name collisions in the name database.

    The FAQ doesnt say anything about the stash being glitched or temporary. We were supposed to get a double sized stashed.

    I've unlocked the account stash on both servers; what will happen to it?

    Both account stashes will be merged into a single, double-sized account stash.

    It's working the exact same way it did when the 2 EU servers merged. Why all the surprise now?

    For the vast majority of players this was their first merger. Not only that but this merger had a lot of differences compared to the EU one so there wasn't reason to believe it would go the same. People can only go by what the GMs promised us.
