World of Warcraft Offers Emergency Relocation Service for Guilds

I remember when I used to be a WoW addict. I would easily spend 30+ hours a week raiding with my guild. I eventually worked my way up to becoming our main Pally Tank and was one of the top ranked Prot Pallys on our server.

Sure my guild wasn’t the best, and like all guilds, ours did have its problems but we managed. When Blizzard announced that they were offering to move characters to new servers that were being created in preperation for Wrath of the Litch King, we were very excited as our server was becoming over populated and the economy was tanking. We all decided to move to the new servers, or so we thought. Once the move was complete, we noticed that nearly half our guild had abandoned the idea and so almost all of our core members (myself included) were stuck on the new server, kicking myself right now for not remembering its name, with no healers or hunters. We were a broken guild. It seems this was a situation all too common as we found other guilds that this had happened to and ended up merging with them.

It seems that Blizzard is setting up to offer a service even more drastic than what we experienced. Blizzard will be allowing an entire guild—including its structure, guild leader, guild bank, and guild name to be swapped not only to a different realm, but also an entirely different faction. Players will be able to follow the guild in its transfer—in order to do so, however, they’ll have to do their own paid character transfer as part of the process.

The realms to first allow for guild transfers are as follows:
-Agamaggan
-Alexstrasza
-Alleria
-Azshara
-Baelgun
-Balnazzar
-Blackhand
-Cho’gall
-Dark Iron
-Destromath
-Dethecus
-Emerald Dream
-Garona
-Goldrinn
-Gorgonnash
-Greymane
-Gul’dan
-Hellscream
-Illidan
-Kael’thas
-Kalecgos
-Kirin Tor
-Lightninghoof
-Maelstrom
-Malfurion
-Moonrunner
-Nazjatar
-Nemesis
-Ravencrest
-Spinebreaker
-Sargeras
-Staghelm
-Stormreaver
-Twisting Nether
-Ursin
-Whisperwind
-Wildhammer

As for cost, a Guild Master Faction Change will be $40, a Guild Master Realm Transfer $35, and a Guild Name Change $20. For a guild that decides to do both a realm and faction change, they’ll receive a $10 discount.

Not a bad deal, I mean, that other faction is finally getting a chance to give up their pathetic ways and join us in all of our glory. I mean come on, why else do this for any other reason than to have the opportunity to raise our banner, charge into battle, and scream FOR THE HORDE!!!!!
