I am not understanding your question.

The topic for your thread and the question you are asking seems to be different.

Will they make a new server? Eventually they might.

Will they allow for us to switch servers? I think somewhere in that ask OS staff a question thread that it was a possibility in the future. But their definition of future is usually when most of us quit. 8D

If at any point, They ever had to implement a new server, It would most likely be because of capacity and traffic.

For example, If it took 4 servers to handle the amount of people now, But the server capacity on them is almost always "High" then after this next update, They will be showing "Very High" because of the capped players returning to cap again.
If they add a new server, This will effectively reduce the amount of people in each server, Who want to be #1 on a DIFFERENT server.
Thus, knocking the server capacity back down to a normal "High/Medium"
There's no profit in another server as of yet, So you can imagine OS won't bite.

Will there be a a facility to change servers in the near future while keeping the same character? Please?

I assume youâ€™re asking about character transfers? We talked about this within the team about a year ago but with so many crazy things going on, it was hard to follow up considering the other priorities on the list. So to somewhat answer your question, yes we do want to add this service but to when, we donâ€™t know yet. Perhaps when we open another server, we will add the service to the list of things to do.

From the Q & A thread.

oHH okay.

I think it would be cool to be able to cross servers, but is that actually possible. Isn't the character saved on the server itself?

As for another server I don't think they'll do it until it is absolutely needed, which I don't think will ever be.

I could be wrong but ehh.

It's only data, Manz. It can be copied from server to server. Depending on the game structure, it might have to be done manually (or Manuelly, which is where you pay a guy named Manuel) or with a script.

Thus why I'm a financial analyst and not in computers.
