Lost Character slot with server transfer

I used a transfer token to move a seldom played character from Protector to Pinnacle. Instead of the slot being freed up on Protector, it set itself to unavailable.

Petitioning now

This happens sometimes when the store options are disabled (usually, down for maintenance). There was a period back in maybe late September or early October when ALL extra character slots were unavailable for most of a weekend because of this.

I could be wrong, but they might have moved the Server Transfer portion out of the actual store for the holiday gift thing so it wouldn't actually charge anyone money, which could possibly leave it available even if the store were down for maintenance.

Alternately, the slot may have "moved" to a different page on your character list. Double check that first before sending a petition. If that's not the case, then by all means, petition away... just don't be terribly surprised if you get a response that it'll be back shortly due to the reasons mentioned above.

I had that happen, where the first page slot that the character moved from was marked unavailable, and a "create character" slot opened on second page.
