Game mode: Online unofficial Type of issue: Performance Server type: any all of them PvP | PvE-Conflict | PvE Region: America Mods?: No Edition: Steam * * * ## Bug Description: A clear and concise description of what the bug is. I left the unofficial server doing a character transfer. Now no matter what server type I try to join I get the popup that I am not compatible with the pvp. But I left a PLAYER VS PLAYER unofficial server. I cannot join any type of unofficial server (pvp / pve conflict / pve) it gives the pvp warning although I did not leave a pvp server. Also tried all types official same result. It will not let me into any servers. The transfer box is always grayed out. I made a new character so I don’t want personal help. I’ll just let my first character rot an die in cyber non-existance. I cannot wait forever to find another server when this transfer system is borked. But it would be nice if the servers we qualified to transfer to were highlighted because it takes forever to find a server that will allow transfers. But it’s broke so you cannot transfer at all anyway. Just wanted to let you all know transfers do not work as is. ---

Well server transfers are messed up right now. When they come back, my understanding is you can only switch to equal eg pvp \> pvp or lesser combat eg pvp \> pve-c \> pve And you can’t go from unofficial to official. These measures are to stop people from farming in pve then moving to pvp to raid And to stop unofficial admin powered cheat materials from transferring to Official servers. ---
