You get banned on Ywain for farming your own RP's so why the hell should Mordred chars who we all know did the same be allowed to transfer to Ywain?



What about the vast majority of Mordred players who never farmed toons ? Guess we get to just suck it? Maybe they should still just erase all toons that were not originally on Lancelot server ? That would be about as fair. Also, hugely more people on regular servers, once clustered, farmed their own toons on other realms. While Mordred got a lot of suddenly missing players with the radar bans, didn't regular servers get just as many or more?


Too many people from regular servers with a holier-than-thou attitude advocating against something that wouldn't affect them other than barely.


Transfer my toons off, broke and naked for all I care, or let people copy onto Mordred, ffs

there is no reason why Mythic should not get off there asses and do this, hell ... it makes them money in the end to do this, it brings even more players to there precious little RvR servers.



I would imagine that they don't do this because the cost in programmer time would exceed the projected revenue increase from returning 'Dred players.
This is especially true if many/most of the 'Dred players are already playing on Ywain, in which case many/most of them wouldn't add a dime to Mythic's revenue as a result of this proposed change.



Cost/benefits shouldn't be the only consideration in something like this. Neglecting small portions of your customer base is a way to get a bad reputation among all of your current & potential customer base. Weighed against that, giving Mordred players some love isn't all that expensive.



The rest of Mythic's customer base doesn't seem to give a rat's hind leg about Mordred players, so I doubt that failing to give Mordred players some love would really cause Mythic any problems that way.

As an un-tapped source of income for the game they should give a rats ass about Mordred players. A /copy to Mordred or a transfer off seems like the quickest way to get some re-subs from the Mordred players who have let their accounts run out. What other group is there? New players? It's a 10 yr old game. Old players from regular servers? Whit nothing new offered, why would the re-up if they already haven't? Mordred is the last option for them to get old players back from the PvP server, that will increase their revenue.

From the fact that there seems to always be a @Mordred topic or 2 running, I'd say there is at least some interest from the Mordred playerbase to have a chance to renew subscriptions.

Is there a good reason for not allowing players to copy off Mordred?

Apparently it all boils down to " I tried to play there once 7 years ago, some big meanie killed me in a PvP zone, they should all Die In A Fire !! "

I find it funny that instead of just rerolling certain mordred players who obviously still wanna play continue to complain. If you rerolled ywain in first place more than likely by now woulda been = to most of there mordred characters but it seems they think that EA cares and if they cry enough it will happen.

As most know, I'm not a fan of Mordred. The ruleset cannot be transfered to Ywain (I.E you shouldn't be able to kill Mids when playing a Mid toon and be able to transfer over).

There should however be a charcopy from Ywain to Mordred. So that if people want to play 'dred but don't want to start from zero, they can have their toons from Ywain.



agree 100%

No, and I'll type slow because it seems youare too stupid to read fast, the best thing would be to solve the issue, then the players complaining would be able to have a solution.

For some reason, when regular servers, like Bors, population dropped to nothing I don't remember anyone saying to just shut it down and too bad about the people there. I don't recall that happening with the classic servers either. Guess the double standard is alive and well

I have re-rolled on Ywain. My Ywain characters are actually much better geared, have more plat and more RR than my Mordred toons. I still want my Mordred toons to be able to be played.
