Paid Character Transfer Coming Soon?

While this may be pure rumor (and I can't find a reliable source attribution anyhwere), there's a fairly detailed character transfer FAQ floating around with all the information on pricing and availibity. If this is just a rumor, someone's certainly gone to a lot of trouble to write it up with so much detail. Here are the highlights, though you'll have to read the full document to get all the details:

• $25 per character transfered

• Transfers can take up to 10 days to process, during which time you cannot access the character

• Not all realms avalible for transfer (full or high population realms, realms soon to be open for free transfers, or recently released realms will not be avalible)

• Restrictions on how much gold a transfering character may have (300g for characters level 10 to 30, 1000g for characters level 31 to 50, 5000g for characters level 51 to 60)

• You may transfer from a PvP to a PvE rule-set, but not from PvE to PvP

• You may only transfer to a PvP realm if you do not have characters of the opposing faction on that realm

• You may transfer characters from one account to another only if you are the subscriber for both accounts
