Item Upload Cooldown
In a few hours, all the servers from the list are getting shut down and people can't move their belongings from SE. I still have items and structures to move, and I need to wait with them in my inventory for 30mins before I can upload them. I can carry only around 100 structures at a time, so I literally dont have enough time to upload everything our tribe has. How is it fair? Not only we loose so much time invested into these servers and our bases, but we also have to give up on all the heavy items we had in vaults + all the artifacts? (Can carry only 1 type of artifact at a time).
Furthermore, applying this feature makes it horribly difficult to do any trades. Not everyone owns/controls an obelisk on their server or has the transmitter unlocked.
I get it that it is to prevent dupers, but since Legacy has no more customer support, why do we have to put up with this stupid timer that prevents us from efficiently moving, trading and working?
If anyone found any dev statement on this issue, please link it or copy-paste it here.

no reason whatsoever then to annoy people

i am pretty, you are very pretty (hehe) that's why they keep bending us over and insert it from behind

i'm happily flying with my beloved 221 lightning wyv. stealing wyv egg here and there, doing some cactus sap, some desert beacons.

suddenly boom server down

suddenly, i log in dead, killed lol ok?
no clue where i died as my last fight with the 185 poison wyv was long and covered alot of space to avoid not getting hit by the breath attack.


i fly, i scout grom grom where art thou

then!!


the death message, beloved grom is no more

yeay for incompetent devs, day before release/server wipe.
can't even get a simple patch right, without 1.5hour rollback to fix all your mess

Man, that sucks, sorry to hear that. We lost some babies due to the update but the most crushing is the fact that we cant transfer the remaining items over. So much time and energy wasted... I hope devs will comment on this soon and fix it.

i transfered last week allready and i wish i didn't
went from 714 to 698, scouting scouting looking for a new spot to call homr

aha, found!

back to 714, upload my stuff, upload my best dinos that are essential

go back to 698, download all

BOOM server down, dupers at work.
all the dinos and stuff i took, all gone, erased. not in obi, not in map

a moment of silence for the following:

-grimgor ironhide 222 lightning wyv
-150 perfect tame mantis leveled to 264
-264 bred equus pair leveled to 300+ (SE sand cargo)
-291 thorny dragon
-315 theri
-301 doedi
-380 ankylo
-364 direbear
-280% melee giga (just had it 3 days)

-3 chem benches
-10 vaults
-2 indu forges
-indu cooker
-indu grinder

so yes, i have reached my limit. i can not lose 1 more thing, and i'll do my best tommorow on the "new server" i have many pillars i'd like to plan

if they want to abandon the old servers. the playerbase who swallowed all their salty loads
then i'll bring the state of the old servers to them

no point playing sweet

your server made it off the kill list now, bu they will keepn evaluating servers and looking which they can shut

all legacies must be erased, that is certain
all we can do is "delay" when
