Thought they were giving a bonus of what they posted on top of your founders pack
Yeah but tbh I don’t know if that bonus makes up for the things lost + everyone with a founders pack gets it so its no incentive to change server if I understood that correctly
Edit: Please correct me if I’m wrong but as I understand you get that which wa sposted only if you redeemed your packs on the server you want to leave anyway
so we dont get back the original pack + bonus if we switch servers?
“To help combat this and make exploring new servers a more reasonable choice, we will be granting ALL Founder’s Pack purchasers that redeem their pack by 12 PM PT (8 PM UTC) on Monday, February 14th with an extra set of the exclusive items from the Founder’s Pack they redeemed (e.g., the Founder’s Exclusive Pet and Founder’s Title from the Bronze pack; see full list below) as well as some additional Royal Crystals for Silver, Gold, and Platinum Pack purchasers. These items will not be tradeable, and will be delivered to a player’s Product Inventory so they can be claimed on a new server. Your original Founder’s Pack will not be affected by this, and will remain on the initial server where you redeemed it (or in your Product Inventory, if you have not yet redeemed it).”
According to this you have to redeem your current packs for this, so you only get the bonus stuff to redeem on the new server you want to go (or redeem on your current server)
This does not help my community. Dozen’s of us are already in the 40-50 range and time is invaluable.

I don’t give two $h**s about the Founders packs.
I care about the 3 people currently that can’t join the other 27 of us on Avesta. They all paid for Founders Packs as well and tried to get in yesterday to find it locked.
And Avesta has had no queue times, yet we are locked for “extended queue times”.
I got into the creators program, talked up this game for months, convinced 30 of us to pay money to do the early access, some of them couldn’t get in the game until yesterday. Servers have no queue. But Amazon locks them anyways.
It’s a BS reason for our server (not saying it’s a BS reason for servers that have actual queue times), and they need to do something other than their crap response they gave.

Yeah I understand where you are coming from, I had to change servers now to play with friends and lost quite some progress so basically I lost the whole headstart and parts of the founder packs. I give also two poos about the packs though because it is as half-butted as everything so far 
Locking things down without any possible transfer is just the worst posible thing to do, the game is already dying for many as a result, no one wants and to join if they can’t join their friends. all the english servers are locked down, good job AGS!
“well i hope you liked the game for the time you got to play I’m not playing it” What do I tell my friends that say stuff like this.
This is the downfall of the game for tons of people if they don’t find a better response asap.
If it was just me, I’d start over in a heartbeat. But it’s not.
It’s me and 26 other people. I’m not asking them to all start over, and I shouldn’t be in a position to have to.

I feel terrible about this since my friends and I enjoy the game but jeesh this feels awful for my community. I don’t even have words…
Now our entire group is getting discouraged.
Yeah I think a fast and overcompensating response is the only way to save it, not bread crumbs thrown at us piece by piece. They shouldn’t be afraid to give refunds or rollback decisions already made before its too late entirely.
Same situation with my guild and friend groups. No one is happy about the forced segregation being caused by locked servers.
Half of us did head-start and progressed quite a bit, advanced the guild, spent our coins in shop, and don’t have any interest in re-rolling on another server. The ones that are starting today are seriously aggravated and turned off knowing they can’t join the rest of the guild.
Putting you and so many people into that situation is the worst tbh, having to deal with something out of your control but still feeling responsible (at least that’s how I am feeling)
I hope there is a solution to all of this but I’m pessimistic.
Server transfers are not supported by the game engine.
Nah, don’t feel like it.
Like I feel preordering the package was a pay to lose feature at this point… Surely I’m dreaming right and things are not truly being handled this badly -.-

Sadly, You’re not dreaming.
“Please continue to stand by for more updates.” Yes we deftly will be watching closely…As it’s possible this could go all so ever wrong. I hope not but yeah…Separating communities etc is very bad.
It’s not usually about anything more than Databases being on their own servers and messing with them while they are online and active has to be planned for. Could they remove the data from 1 character and move it to another server? Probably, but is the processes stream lined for a mass deployment of a feature they want to allow? Probably not. Editing intertwining database items could be a nightmare to implement depending on how it was “Grown” during its development. Fingers and tendrils of datapoints could be going to all sorts of things from Reporting jobs, to base game functions, to who knows what…
