News about the server "guesting" system:
Quote: | At launch, players will be able to transfer between worlds freely. However, once server populations have largely settled and stabilized, world transfers will be restricted to once a week and cost a variable amount of gems based on the population of the world being transferred to.
In time, we’ll also introduce free “guesting,” which will allow players to visit other worlds as guests as long as they have friends on those worlds. This feature will be free, but guest players will not be able to enter World vs. World, and the Power of the Mists bonuses from their home world will continue to apply to their characters. |
So this means that they will NOT have server guesting at launch. So let's make sure we are all on the same server initially.

Agreed, Oedi. Will post the official server of THP by Wednesday. Several people I know are doing some research, so feel free to post any and all thoughts here.

Ok everyone. Didn't get much feedback so we're gonna go with Jade Quarry. Milkwagon and I have had several discussions and done some reading. Some thoughts on the decision:
1. The big WvW alliances aren't declaring early. They are keeping things a secret for now, so we can't follow them.
2. Jade Quarry has won almost all WvW matches in beta. They have a group of ex DAoCers that are familiar with WvW and seem to be organized.
3. It is expected to be high pop, which should mean good economy, but may also mean queue times for WvW.
4. Free server transfers are open for at least the first couple weeks it looks like, so if we don't like it, we can all move for free.
I recommend you guys get on Jade Quarry as soon as you can. Don't wanna see most of the guild make it on there and a few get left off cause it fills up.
Get on vent friday night!

I unfortunately won't be able to play until the 28th...so hopefully it doesn't fill up yet.
