Server Transfer
Overview
A Server Transfer is the process of transferring (moving) a character from one server (the source server) to another (the target server); eg, moving a character from the Reunion server to the Everlasting server. This is done on the character selection screen at login; the button is at the top left. You receive five server transfers every three days, to a maximum of five.
Beware: if the last member of a supergroup is transferred to another server, the supergroup will be irrevocably deleted. With a thousand character slots per server, it is best to create an alt and use "/altinvite" to ensure a supergroup does not vanish.
If the transfer fails, it is recommended to _not_ immediately try again; subsequent attempts will usually just cost more tokens that cannot be refunded by staff. Instead, it is best to wait a day; or better yet, until a server reboot. These are normally done on Tuesdays.

Naming Conflicts
If the name of the character being transferred already exists on the target server, the name is slightly altered, usually with a number appended.
The 1,000 character slots per server make it easy to check that a desired name is available at the destination.
