I decided not to delete any char, actually. My main will be transferred and that's it. Alts can hover there and yes, I also have servers with abandoned lvl80s, 85s, 90s ;p
As for the guild drama affecting me: I'm not stressed because some people in a game say something. I have made friends there and many remain in my btag friend list. But whilst I don't care about their drama, they do. If I raid with a group, some of my friends will say "sorry I am not going with you because X is in the group". And since it's so likely that on that small-ish server you will bump into one another, it just sucks the fun out of it for me. I have removed most of these contacts now but stuff like that is just tiring. Why can't people just grow the heck up.
Free transfer was not available and having suffered from lowpop realms before it's really the last thing I'd do. Enjoying the high pop at the moment. Great to read that other people have "moved" on like this before as well!
