But is it possible that characters 13 years older than everyone else have arrived on the International 5 server? Is this normal? Is it normal that characters born in 2020 now have to compete with characters born in 2007? And why were some allowed and others denied? What do the administrators say? Thanks in advance for your replies.

......I would ask everyone to refrain from insults and the like. Anyone who disagrees with what I've written can express their disagreement in a civil manner without resorting to insults. Thank you.

Further transfers to Server INT 5 have been stopped due to discrepancies regarding existing and newly added levels on Server 5. This particularly affects the skill distribution of the transferred levels to existing characters on Server 5 and apparently also on Server 6. No further transfers will take place until this issue is resolved. Payments already made for pending transfers would then need to be refunded, or you can simply wait until the matter is resolved. I've heard that someone has paid but is now unable to transfer and hasn't received any feedback on the status. However, since I'm not familiar with this process and have never transferred a character myself, I don't wish to comment on it.

There were also statements that new players are being discriminated against, which I believe was misunderstood. We have nothing against new players. It's actually great when KF gains new members. Fresh blood is always welcome. It just makes us skeptical when new players use old accounts. Isn't the game supposed to be learned first? Don't you build your character yourself? How was it then possible for new players, who don't know anyone here, to access old accounts that had been inactive for years, meaning the original players are no longer active? Many long-time players are asking these questions, which has created mistrust and corresponding dissatisfaction, as their questions haven't been answered.

My statement here isn't directed at any nationality, but simply refers to how, for example, new players gained access to old accounts. And then there was the issue of transfers to INT 5 and 6 being possible without prior notice. This is only possible if you specifically request these servers. Advance notice would have been better, as it would have allowed for an explanation of the pros and cons of such transfers. Anger could have been avoided if all players had been informed about these planned moves beforehand.

I'm not speaking for myself here, but for many original players from servers 5 and 6 who asked me to make this public. And I have reproduced all of this here exactly as it was told to me. I don't want to say anything more about it because I'm really tired of constantly being personally attacked here.

13 years of difference is really a lot...too many...if you consider that others have been denied it, with the same yearly allowance.

The players of these accounts are not being blamed for being on these servers, since they paid for it and the transfers took place. Understandably, they feel justified, as the transfer was made possible for them.

The resentment stems from the fact that this was even possible.

This happened without warning, and such information should absolutely be published beforehand. Furthermore, not all of these accounts necessarily match the original accounts from Server 5. The situation there is more serious than on Server 6. I think the situation on Server 6 is still relatively manageable.

I was asked by some players to write a summary (here, as well as in other topics), which I did, and that's all from me :)

Why did I write here on behalf of these players and not them themselves?

They told me to try my luck, but I wouldn't get any answers. They said they'd resigned themselves years ago to the fact that their questions and concerns would be ignored. And I told them, whatever, I'll try anyway. :)

I figured asking wouldn't hurt, but I certainly hadn't expected such hostility.

Because I actually assumed that one is mature enough to address any disagreements constructively and objectively, but the backlash I encountered was more like an out-of-control mudslinging match with partial threats, various accusations, where I was personally implicated by name, etc., etc....

And these very players I'm speaking for kept servers 5 and 6 alive all these years. And these very players were told to delete their accounts if they didn't like the fact that transfer accounts had now appeared. A heartfelt thank you to these original players of server 5 who kept that server alive. Does their frustration surprise you?

Frustrated at being presented with a fait accompli.

Frustrated at then being ridiculed simply for disagreeing with the transfers?

Frustration that these transfer accounts are far too highly skilled for the original accounts from Server 5 to do anything about it; instead, they are now at the mercy of these highly skilled transfer accounts, and if they say anything, they are advised to delete their accounts.

Server 5 is practically dead (within three weeks), and server 6 (Steinhall) started dying with the launch of Veligrad. This is usually what happens when a new game world is released—the previous one dies. So it's not worth leveling up until the end.

It was all the more astonishing that Eisenwall (int. server 5) withstood all of this until the transfers began. That was the death knell for server 5.

Seriously:

Was it really worth destroying a active server in such a short time?

And now I've really written everything that was on the minds of the players on server 5 INT :)
