In this case, the problem was that when the person thought "I'd like to help these folks out." there was no public statement that the conditions for characters going on to, or off of the Test server had changed before it happened. Instead it was just done and not communicated.
Not surprisingly, people like to know when things change, and usually before it happens whenever possible. Then they can prepare for, and adjust to the change with minimal issues. Had that been done before members of UT were moved to Unrest, this probably wouldn't have irritated nearly as many people as it has.
ROFLMAO!!! So now you're telling us that this is an official change in SOE policy? That weeks or months ago it was decided that entire guilds would be allowed to be moved from Test to Live? For free? With all their illegitimately acquired gear, spells, loot, and levels? And that you hadn't gotten around to telling anyone about it yet? And that it just so happened that the first beneficiaries of this new policy are a guild with a documented history of getting dev favoritism over other players on Test (such as, but not limited to, the GM Goggles of Instant Epic Death)?
You must have aspirations to work on K Street.
No, I am telling you that before this was done it should have been discussed as a potential policy shift and then communicated. Then it would have been clear up front. In this case, that was obviously not done.
