Since Brandywine, Landroval, and Elendilmir currently do not allow incoming character transfers. What is Turbine going to do when F2P comes live to control population on the highest population servers? Will they consider reserving the most populated servers for VIP and premium accounts like EQ2 is reserving their current servers for paid accounts as described at: http://forums.lotro.com/showthread.php?p=4903864 ?
I am not concerned about implementing only one pet method to control population as long as the method(s) works. So feel free to offer other suggestions and hopefully Turbine is proactive on overpopulation before F2P comes live. Among some other ideas to consider are giving less populated servers some more GM love with regard to special events, etc.
We do know that the new servers will allow current players a 2 day head start to use names that were snapped up by beta testers on the current servers over 3 years ago, beta testers who have never played the game since and have never paid even one penny to Turbine. So that idea is already being implemented.
