Holly Hop Drive. Dimension Jump. Quantum Leaping

Naff all people???

I have looked through the post and have seen at least 2 people that have endorsed the idea of server jumping on a temp basis. There is also a couple of people that have endorsed the idea of an accolade award for the shard TFs, which albiet is a small part of the suggestion that ignores the bulk of the suggestion it is still endorsed.

Looks like me some who were against EU to US servers, don't have a problem with this idea.... Or even merging servers was a bad idea have said they like the concept..

Deleted due to bad taste

Hmmm, the idea is nice...although it kinds of breaks immersion from me. As "jumping" to another dimension which is exactly the same(bar toons) does not feel like jumping dimensions.

I also see a lot of technical problems occuring(disconnecting as someone mentions above) and taking up lots of dev time.

I don't know where to stand on this issue, you get points for originality, that is for certain.

Personally I don't see what the incentive for hopping to another server for a brief period of time. However reading other peoples posts, it seems that there are people who do.
So I wont call it a bad idea, I'm just not sure if it is a good one.

*stands on the sidelines*

I do think it would be a usefull addition as would allow you to make friends with your mains that maybe more usefull in getting teams or if you a certain person you only have one toon. And by making it a tempary jump it allows you to see if the grass is greener.

I also would expect it to generate more in server transfers. For example if you find you are jumping a toon accross and find it easier to get teams etc you would be more tempted to move the toon on a permament basis, it is that reason I said a 2 hour time limit per hop.

1 last thing would be when jumping server it would be nice to see a doctor who type vortex design indicating breaking through the walls of reality.

But in breaking down the walls of reality you'll released the 3million+ Daleks and Cybermen - Paragon would be overun!!!!

Ok maybe a shinyer (lots of light spears) WS teleport graphic

You know, I'm half sold of the thematics of this. Parallel universes are a mainstay of comics, and we've already got Portal Corps in the background as a handy background foundation.

Instead of making the prequisite a string of Shadow Shard TFs I'd go with a Portal Corps TF possibly.

You still have to find a way to resolve the issue of people having *paid* for server transfers not feeling they've been jipped out of cash though.

As one of these people i wouldn't actually care plus you get a wee warning to say that in the future your server transfer may become redundant

Personnally i like aspects of this idea and dislike others. I dont think reasons need putting in black and white as to the exact uses of server transfers, if someone wants to pay money to do it then so be it. Its not as if there is someon sat at a desk being paid to manually transfer everyone over who requests it.

I love the aspect of getting something for the Shards TFs other than shiny badges and love the ammount of detail the OP has thought of, taking all constuctive criticism into account and refining his idea.

IMO once a TF has been introduced its only a matter of time before its sussed out and abused, i know the ITF has now been completed in under 2 hours, thus becoming farmable and less special. The Shard TFs are still incredibly difficult and have story lines surrounding them that most players arent even aware of, so for the inclusion of them alone

100% with ya on the rewarding for the TFs...I just really doubt that the majorty of people would be happy if they had'
"Congratulation! You have spent five solid days of your live, and you may now have a two hour trip to the US servers!"
Player:.....?!?!?!

I know I would be annoyed with that >.>

Then obviously the rewards could do with tweaking, maybe increase it to 24hrs?
