For those who haven't done so, I'd strongly recommend you go and make level 1 characters on Jung Ma with your current character names from Ajunta Pall. I was able to get 7 of 8 of mine.

For sake of sanity, we have to hope our unique server situation wasn't completely overlooked, and that we're in line for transferring over there at some point!

Edit: Though after reading the Lord Calypso thread about the EU RP-PVP servers, I am starting to think AP is just screwed.

Yeah we are totally ****ed. Bioware obviously has no *********** idea in hell what they are doing and even though our server is just as low pop as many others we will get stranded because of some ******* server assignment.

I did this last night, thankfully as it looks like they wont be merging JM with AP. I am hoping they might let us choose another PST server like the Swiftsure it seems likely they will have other servers pop added to theirs so maybe they will let us go there.

However given past trends and their "technical" limitations (which is more then likely bogus just a way for them to keep it straight forward, as the transfer process for characters is probably an update to a DB table that associates character id to server id, their could be coding or server specific issues as well likely name/legacy change that need to be coded and merge legacy data) I doubt BW will surprise us and we will be left alone for awhile.

Not that our pop blows but it is much more fun to see people everywhere 200+ people on the fleet, people out in the world, leveling ect.

Something so easy and bioware makes it so complex
No they shouldn't they should let west coast servers move to AP. Screw jung ma and its latency.
Blah blah blah signature, blah blah blah stuff.

Hard to say which is the lesser of two evils. Transfer across RP-PvP / PvP servers or across west/east coast servers.

Personally I think dead PvP servers to larger populated RP-PvP servers is a no brainer, since there is zero difference between the two server types except the "RP-" in the tag name. But people on PvP servers really seem to be bothered by those three simple characters.

Either way. I hope they pick one or the other. And not settle for doing nothing at all.

Posting to add my voice to this thread. Population seems to be dropping on AP and I don't want to have to re-roll on Jung Ma. I live on the East coast, and I have no problems playing on a West coast server.

I specifically chose AP because it was one of the higher pop servers and that seems to be changing.

Thanks for reading this, Bioware!

AP was a re-roll server for me. At the time I began my toons, the server was by some estimates around the 4th most populous US server. We've not far off if the information in the "Population Estimates for the Top 20 US Servers" thread in accurate, with 4 RP (PVE or PVP) servers in on their list at 6-9 and very close in population. Our server may be relatively healthy to lower pop servers but it has declined substantially. I was really hoping that server transfers might infuse our realm, but I just don't see it happening anytime soon.

Part of the problem is my general confidence (specifically lack there of ) in Bioware right now. This is a game I want to love, but they have made it very difficult. So many mis-steps. The Rakghoul event was just amazing but after it was over it was back to sound problems and client crashes post-1.2. I found myself playing other games and simply avoiding SWTOR.

I took the advice of reserving some names on the higher population servers. I have one 50 (with the codex / nerd points from the world event ) that I may return to for some dailies to build up credits in hope for a future transfer. SWTOR is a great alts game (for me) and I started many for my legacy but nothing that was so omg advanced I couldn't re-roll. So that's probably what I'm going to do. Re-roll and let my 'main' do her dailies while waiting for what will ultimately be a paid transfer. Matter of choosing which one to play on but the choice is itself is a bit liberating, like leaving a bad job behind. And yes, I would gladly pay $25 (Blizzard's transfer fee.. mentioned as a benchmark) to transfer my 50 to the realm of my choice.

It look like Ajunta Pall have the same problem as all three EU (eng, ger, fr) RP-PVP servers. If you read this thread http://www.swtor.com/community/showthread.php?t=475348 you can find some info taken from the german forums (translated ofc).

I concur on this message, this server has some of the best players on it in terms of community notes and sticky's posted on the forums. It would be a shame to not let people move here and besides Ajunta Pall is the Sith Lord, the first of many.

I want my server saved dammit!
