This is how I think account transfers should work…
Let’s say you have 4 accounts. You decide you are going to upgrade all 4 to NC2 but intend to only keep 2 of them. Each account has many characters across many servers. You log on to each one and carefully select the implants and 10 quickbelt items you want to keep.
Then you go to Click2Pay and pay to upgrade the 4 accounts. Once the transaction is processed, 2 things happen.
1. You can no longer access your accounts in NC1. In fact, they no longer exist in NC1. Their skill levels, and quickbelt items have been recorded and the information is stored in a temporary transfer database for 90 days.
2. A new NC2 account is created for you with all empty slots.
Now you log in to the web interface to begin transferring characters. At the top of the form, you enter the name and password of any one of your 4 accounts. This will populate a list with all available characters from that account combined from any of the old servers.
At the bottom of the form you enter the name and password of either of the 2 NC2 accounts you intend to continue paying for. This populates another list with available (unused) slots.
For example:
Jupiter: Slot 1
Uranus: Slot 1
Uranus: Slot 2
Uranus: Slot 3
Uranus: Slot 4
PluSat: Slot 1
PluSat: Slot 2
PluSat: Slot 3
PluSat: Slot 4
You then select one character from the top list of characters and one available slot from the bottom list of available spaces. You press transfer. That character is deleted from the top list and the slot is removed from the bottom list. Simple.
The temporary storage database and the web form are so simple they can easily be created in a single day.
