Character Transfers Phase II - now live!

[Magnus_GOA]

Good day!

Some time ago, we launched the first phase of character transfers between European servers and most destination servers now host a healthy population. As you're keenly aware of though, there's more work to be done and so we're now happy to announce the second wave of character transfers which is scheduled to launch tomorrow.

Please make sure that you discuss with your friends and guilds and make sure that you end up on the same server as these character transfers are final. You'll find more info on this in our news.

Further, please note that this is not a final solution; whereas we're happy with the growth of population we're seeing on many servers and we're confident about the populations we'll be seeing on our servers after this second phase we are still aware that some servers will still be weak. We've got preliminary plans for Phase III but these will naturally depend on the population evolution during Phase II.

Lastly - we know many of you have been waiting for this initiative for a long time. Sorry about that. We hope you'll all find yourself at home with your new servers and that you'll be having tons of fun in the lakes!



Phase II
Axe Bite Pass, Karag Orrud and Karag Dron can transfer to Karak Hirn or Karak Azgal


Phase I
The transfers made available during Phase I remain active for now. Here's a reminder.

Core Servers
Karak Ungor, Karak-Vlag, Karaz-a-Karak, Tor Anroc, Yvresse, Zhufbar, Worlds Edge Mountains can transfer to Karak Izor or Karak Norn

Core Roleplay Servers
Makaisson characters can transfer to Burlok or Alarielle (oRvR RP)

Open RvR Roleplay Servers
Ellyrion characters can transfer to Alarielle (oRvR RP) or Burlok (Core RP)

Open RvR Servers
Clar Karond, Mount Silverspear, Sea of Dreams, Tiranoc, Finuval Plain characters can transfer to Dragonback Mountains (oRvR)


See the announcement on WAR-Europe (http://www.war-europe.com/#/news/?id_news=en303&lang=en).

Blessings!

Still no possibilities for Italian & Spanish players to move to RP English servers?

We still have no RP servers and try to RP on normal servers it's a pain; GMs already suggested us to report problems and harassments but we can't pass all the time writing tickets.
A transfer seems to be the only solution.

[Gory]

Are we correct to assume that Phase II transfers are again free transfers?

Also, is it worth looking at opening the option of transfering to one of the RP servers to more servers than just Makaisson and Ellyrion? Maybe to the Core ones too? Just a thought.

[Ratzap]

A couple of questions:

1) do all my chars on the account for server A move to server B? Or do I have to log them all in and do each one? read FAQ

2) Are you going to balance the moves? The last thing we need is 200 order moving to a new home to find that 700 destro moved there too.

Edit: ignore 1), I read the FAQ ;)

Ratzap

[Kutzum]

Cheers for the update.

I know it's going to sound like a whine but I wish you would implement free character transfers for everyone on low/low servers to medium and high populated ones.

I think that would solve a lot of complaints.

But this is simply my opinion. :-|

[Cleofis]

Come to Azgal people, we'll welcome you with open arms.

[Gaugamela]

What is the justification for such a huge delay between the phases 1 and 2 of the server transfers?

Couldn't you guys offer transfers from more or all low/low servers to med/med now in Phase 2?

Are you planning to offer a Phase 3 of transfers without waiting so long to "monitor" the populations like you did for Phase 2?

Thanks in advance if you reply.

[Ivanish]

Phase II
Axe Bite Pass, Karak Orrud and Karak Dron can transfer to Karak Hirn or Karak Azgal


Will you marry me and have my children, Magnus!? :D

Great news, thanks a lot for this GOA, not a second too late! Having said that, please join us on Karak Hirn for great fun! We're old and grumpy over there, and we need new blood, preferably to drink and bathe in! ;)

[Esraymuk]

Come to Karak Azgal!

[RealeT]

My finuval plains order characters are still stuck... cant move to dragonback as i have my main destruction there ... So i am the only finuval plains player online when i log on there.

How about offering a choice ? if this is the case.

Just want to get on with the fun, repeatedly grinding lowbies gets boring fast.

[Nic_GOA]

I wish you would implement free character transfers for everyone on low/low servers to medium and high populated ones.

This is something we have seriously considered for this round and we will continue to consider it for our next phase. As Magnus said in the opening post this is not the final phase!

Are you planning to offer a Phase 3 of transfers without waiting so long to "monitor" the populations like you did for Phase 2?

We will again monitor the impact of the transfers in the days to come but since we have learned a lot from the first phase we aim to have the next update for you with a shorter turn around.

[Cleofis]

This is something we have seriously considered for this round and we will continue to consider it for our next phase. As Magnus said in the opening post this is not the final phase!


You'll really make every single WAR player in Europe happy if you do this. There's so many low/low servers out there and we'd all love just 4-5 high/high servers rather than loads of low/low.

[Sahrokh]

We need more Order on Eltharion. Many more.

[tionkelek]

will i be able to transfer any toon with any lvl from kd to that 2 server ? and will it be free ? any limitations ?

[Cleofis]

will i be able to transfer any toon with any lvl from kd to that 2 server ? and will it be free ? any limitations ?

Can transfer all or just 1, it's free and the only limitation is once you move you can't move back.

[tionkelek]

Can transfer all or just 1, it's free and the only limitation is once you move you can't move back.

thanks for answering but may i get more spesific answer ? 1 or more char ?

[Magnus_GOA]

Good evening!

Also, is it worth looking at opening the option of transfering to one of the RP servers to more servers than just Makaisson and Ellyrion? Maybe to the Core ones too? Just a thought.
These transfers are all free, yes. Paid character transfers will likely come up at a point but as a service to players who wish to join their comrades on other servers, as opposed to these transfers which are directed at adjusting the overall population on our servers.

Still no possibilities for Italian & Spanish players to move to RP English servers?

We still have no RP servers and try to RP on normal servers it's a pain; GMs already suggested us to report problems and harassments but we can't pass all the time writing tickets.
A transfer seems to be the only solution.
Role playing is something which is best done in one's own language. Whereas I don't doubt that many Italian and Spanish role players command a rich English, I'm equally certain that many simply don't. Is it better to role-play in a foreign language RP server or in one's own language on a non-RP server? There's no ideal solution available here. In the end I suspect that only very few Italian and Spanish role players are willing to leave their native servers and so a more viable solution is to simply re-roll.

Are you going to balance the moves? The last thing we need is 200 order moving to a new home to find that 700 destro moved there too.
With character transfers we provide players with the tools they need to change their current situation; we want to encourage, not enforce server balance. One way of doing this is by employing realm bonuses, which we've used with substantial success earlier. Our primary focus with this second phase is to allow the communities on different servers to merge, providing a more fertile ground for oRvR. We'll monitor the development of this and if needed use the tools at our disposal to make corrections. Many servers are currently quite balanced but there's certainly exceptions and these will be addressed.

Then merge :P. We don't mind if it means high population servers.

[Cleofis]

How much more specific do you want? You can transfer 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 it's totally up to you.

[Magnus_GOA]

thanks for answering but may i get more spesific answer ? 1 or more char ?
There's no limitations to the number of characters you transfer as long as you don't break any other rules; you can't have both Order and Destruction characters on the same server and you can't have more than 10 characters on any one server.

Please see our character transfer FAQ (http://faq.war-europe.com/en/categories/Billing+and+Account+Management/Character+Transfers/).

[LeonHart]

Here's a question for K-Azgal and K-Hirn players:

Which server is in need of Order, and which of Destruction?

[Bahumat]

I want to be able to move my character off a Core Server to an Open Server. Will this feature be available at some point?

[Cleofis]

Here's a question for K-Azgal and K-Hirn players:

Which server is in need of Order, and which of Destruction?

We need both on Azgal, preferably more Order though. We've got some great Order guilds and players here, they just need some support :). That said some more Destruction wouldn't go a miss of course.

[Nimbostratus]

Have no choice but to agree completely with my hated enemy :D ...

Oh please please open those transfers from all low/low on Phase 3 and a week or so after phase 2!!!
Everyone would be grateful to you.

[LeonHart]

I'm sorry, but can we please get someone who can talk English to be the English CM?

*snip*

See how much clearer that is now? Seriously, give this guy a P45 and employ someone who comes from England.

He's not the English CM, he's the EU CM, so he more than likely speaks several languages.

How many languages can you speak fluently, may I ask?

[Brinbar]

Here's a question for K-Azgal and K-Hirn players:

Which server is in need of Order, and which of Destruction?

Dont know for Karak Azgal but we could use more ppl to order side.
Also dont know about Azgal as i never played there but Karak Hirn is very oRvR oriented server.
Many skilled guilds and individuals on this server from both order and destruction.

To those that wanna come to Hirn i welcome you!

[Cleofis]

Have no choice but to agree completely with my hated enemy :D ...

If I didn't have Destruction on Azgal I'd make order chars there.

[Cleofis]

"Paid character transfers will most likely become available on all servers at the same time The service is intended for players who wish to join their comrades on other servers, as opposed to the current transfers which are directed at adjusting the overall population on our servers"


You know if you're going to be a grammar Nazi, it's best to make sure you don't miss out a fullstop.

[Vultureskull]

This is something we have seriously considered for this round and we will continue to consider it for our next phase. As Magnus said in the opening post this is not the final phase!

Something before the Christmas break peharps?

Cant you run the next phases concurrently, if they involve different servers?

[ManiaCCC]

I think Azgal is good server for both realms. .but of course.. as almost every server.. Every Order player count for more :).. so if you really think you have Good Order guild with brave players who know how outmsart enemies, welcome in Azgal.

EDIT: Anyway, GOA, please keep in mind.. Xmass holidays are really close and there is still many many players who would be happy to play on populated servers during xmass holidays. Time between 2nd and 3rd phase have to be much much shorter.

[Skitskraj]

Karag-Dron I guess? Can't find any Karak-Dron server atleast.

I just wonder one thing. Earlier today you fellows couldn't say anything about the state of char transfers, then a few hours later everything was all of a sudden decided and within one day the transfers starts to take place. I couldn't be happier with the news, but I'm curious what set off the reaction? Was it all posts about it earlier today? Or did you know about it even at the first post but just couldn't tell for some reason? Or was the entire decision made during the few hours between the posts?

Fair enough Magnus. You must bear in mind though that if order perceives an ongoing balance problem with numbers more and more will cancel. Making the problem worse and ultimately resulting in a PvE game for destro.

Ratzap

[Wolfways]

I'd love to know what a "healthy population" is.
Also, people occasionally mention High pop. servers...sometimes i would swear i'm playing a different game or in another dimension :?

I usually see around 3 Med/Med english servers, and have NEVER seen a high server!

[Kingkillar]

No offence intended here but why is Karak-Izor not an option for the second phase of transfers as the server is low, low even after phase1 transfers and T1-T2 kinda have very few scens popping which means very few new players are gunna want to stay on a server like that.

[Alv4ro]

Join Karak-Hirn!!! dont care if you roll order or destro! JOIN!

thats my duty fulfilled.

[Durgo]

I don't understand.

My US server, Hochland, is completely stagnating. We have people quitting daily because they rolled on an ORvR server and, by Sigmar, they want RVR! But it's just not happening.

There's just not enough population to flip zones. So when we get to the endgame, there's NOTHING TO DO.

The problem boils down to population. Sure, there's some simple things (http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2997061#post2997061) that would fix the zone flipping issue regardless of population, but in the short term it seems we could use some folks transferring into our server to make it work.

Hearing about some spanish/english servers getting transfers first just frustrates me.

[Ivanish]

I'm sorry, but can we please get someone who can talk English to be the English CM?

The sheer amount of spelling, grammatical mistakes and simply bad sentence structure makes that post about as good as a wall of text from a twelve year old child.

I don't see why someone should be paid to talk to English players when they say things such as:

"Paid character transfers will likely come up at one but as a service to players who wish to join their comrades on other servers, as opposed to these transfers which are directed at adjusting the overall population on our servers"

It should be:

"Paid character transfers will most likely become available on all servers at the same time The service is intended for players who wish to join their comrades on other servers, as opposed to the current transfers which are directed at adjusting the overall population on our servers"

See how much clearer that is now? Seriously, give this guy a P45 and employ someone who comes from England.

Someone failed to see the point. We get character transfers! Is that clear enough for you, Mr. God Save The Queen? :rolleyes:

There are a few people that are neither German, French, Italic or Spanish that still want to be able to read news about this game. We don't mind someone without a perfect written English, especially when we get news like this. I'd actually rather get the news fast then get it gramatically perfect. And btw, how can you even read the avarage forum without your head exploding? ;)

Probably because this has nothing to do with NA servers. Don't forget you're on your 7th round of transfers, and this is our 2nd round. Moan at Mythic not GOA who have no say on NA servers whatsoever.

They reopened the server transfers from Phase 1 also.
So people can transfer again for Karak Izor as well. So go advertise on the other servers boards!!!

[Magnus_GOA]

None taken :)

We've had a good look at Karak Izor and indeed, its population isn't where we'd want it to be. With this second phase, we wanted to offer the players on Axe Bite Pass, Karak Dron and Karak Orrud two equal and healthy servers to transfer to and so Karak Azgal and Karak Hirn was the natural choice. We've got plans for Karak Izor but they're dependant on how Phase II unfolds. We'll revise the situation as we go along and take appropriate action. Karak Izor is not forgotten.


-Magnus

[rulez]

We've got plans for Karak Izor but they're dependant on how Phase II unfolds.

In phase two Karak-Izor is neither source nor target server, so the situation is very unlikely to change I guess? But it's good to know there is something in the making, thanks! :)

[Shinja]

In phase two Karak-Izor is neither source nor target server, so the situation is very unlikely to change I guess? But it's good to know there is something in the making, thanks! :)

Actually, during Phase II, the transfers to Norn and Izor are still running so I wouldn't say that Izor is being neglected completely.

To the people that are on source servers from Phase I, I can proudly say that Norn has been giving me one hell of a blast since I transferred.

[Helluin Estel]

Role playing is something which is best done in one's own language. Whereas I don't doubt that many Italian and Spanish role players command a rich English, I'm equally certain that many simply don't. Is it better to role-play in a foreign language RP server or in one's own language on a non-RP server? There's no ideal solution available here. In the end I suspect that only very few Italian and Spanish role players are willing to leave their native servers and so a more viable solution is to simply re-roll.


Magnus, thanks for the answer, first of all.

Well, I and some of my crew always played on European or world wide RP servers.
I'm still the gm of one of the biggest guilds on a RP server (Argent Dawn) on WoW, we have players from every side of the world and we speak only English.
Some Italian players work and live not in Italy and others are used to English because of work, even living in Italy.
We wanted to give a chance to Gorthor and this was a terribly bad mistake, we should have followed who is already on Burlok. Italian community managers and support are fantastic, probably the best I've ever seen, but the players' base is really poor, not everyone gladly.

Roleplaying on a normal server being silly reported for spam or receiving bad words from others in game and in forum, believe me that is not fun.

I spoke with other roleplayers on Gorthor to understand what we can do. We have mainly 3 "factions".
Who is still not 40 and who doesn't speak English, or a proper one, wants to stay on Italian servers.
For players with high rank characters this is different.
Some people, considering also the problems of the game and our server playing community, are quitting or freezing accounts.They would change server but not reroll for many reasons (less players around, time, no wish to do again all from zero with the class they like).
And, last but not least, yes, there is who thinks to reroll, true, but the problem is that if we reroll, we will do it buying the US version of the game.

This is why I and my friends would even pay for a transfer.
Try to speak with someone of the Italian support in GoA: a GM yesterday confirmed me that they received many requests to have transfers from Italian servers to English ones.

Considering all the problems we are experiencing (not only the ones I already wrote, the last of them is related to French backbones that create big issues to some Italian providers making game unplayable, while WoW, that has servers in Vélizy, is perfectly playable nowadays), I think GoA should show to be more open minded to keep all its customers.
We had no problems playing games even with servers in Japan and USA (DaoC, Guinevere RP server for example).


WAR at the moment has many problems and especially Gorthor (Italian server with the biggest population), considering this situation that even our Community Managers confirmed on a forum (http://www.gamersrevolt.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1393630&postcount=18), I think that suggest to reroll, I'm sorry, it doesn't seem the best loyalty strategy to keep a part of your customers already unhappy for many reasons and ready to quit.

[Unclefacts]

Some players in the Spanish community have re-rolled on English servers.
-Magnus


we moved servers, told us our guild name La Casa Del Acero Negro was racist...


idiots.

[hassebanan]

HAHAH omg. Just goes to show that the CSR part of GOA is probably the worst ever seen. Sure, we have some nice action on the forums here from Magnus and his friends but that doesnt really cut it. You cant have a few good people and then base your operation on persons sporting a funny retardation. Mark Jacobs, I dare to say youre not making GOA fulfill their end of the deal.

[Alaz]

Come join us on Karak-Azgal! great community, we're in need of both Order and Destruction, preferably more Order though :D.

[SeraphNora]

Im severly dissapointed by this.

Please let all the players from ORVR servers also transfer to Allarielle we have horrible population issues unaddressed i might say by stage 1 and yet nothing else being done just repeating same thing which we knew already and that didnt work.

Please let : Clar Karond, Mount Silverspear, Sea of Dreams, Tiranoc, Finuval Plain

characters transfer to Allarielle also.

[drkoracle]

I want to be able to move my character off a Core Server to an Open Server. Will this feature be available at some point?

Bull twang to that buddy :rolleyes: We leveled Open-RVR, with the constant danger of a kicking hanging over us in every zone. You core pansies shouldn't get the right to just walk in. If you want to be Open-RvR bad you have to earn it. :cool:

[SeraphNora]

i dont care if they from core roleplay or orvr servers they would be welcome as long as they are willing to come bolster our numbers.

[Rogoo]

Fail. How about letting people transfer off Alarielle ? Oh wait, I don't care anymore.

[reynholm]

black metal house?

I would like to support this post.
Rerolling is not an option, if you want to get it right give players the option to transfer where ever they want. Playing on a sucky server isnt fun. Rerolling after you invested a lot of time is even suckier. I'd suggest GoA to listen to their players before they can close some servers because people will run back to WoW, in the current situation, it's inevetable.

/Zolah

ps. big kiss for Helluin!

[Narwin]

All ar welcome to karak azgal. Great clans off ORDER and Destruction :o. So welcome you all to join this great server with great activity and allot of fun.

[harkan]

None taken :)

We've had a good look at Karak Izor and indeed, its population isn't where we'd want it to be.

-Magnus

I would like to ask following.

Burlok the only remaining core rp server is STILL underpopulated and i was wondering what the plan is for it ? Its still only low low so are you gonna offer us transferes out ? are you gonna offer transfers to it from core servers ? or are you simply gonna mash ALL the rp servers core and open together ?

Either way i would like to know since end game requires more than 3 warbands co-opping and we cant get more than that i would either like to transfere off the server or get reinforced cause i play for end game and nothing else.

[jas72]

close,

The House Of Black Steel.

apparently the color of metal is offensive.

/facepalm

so you would have the CSRs spending their time deleting offensive guild names like

Black negros just so you can have yours. Grow up and choose another name.
:rolleyes:

[jas72]

when can we start the transfer process?

Will we be able to play tonight or will it take 1 day to complete?

11 CET here now.

[pyrovore]

Come join us on Karak-Azgal! great community, we're in need of both Order and Destruction, preferably more Order though :D.

Coming in tonight... if it works!! :-D

[Abyssia]

Hatred will move to azgal as most dron population will...

[LeonHart]

Hatred will move to azgal as most dron population will...

Hm, might have to move my Order there instead then. Thanks for the heads-up!

[Karnosh]

So basically you are offering transfers AWAY from the two healthiest EU servers? Sorry, I was really starting to forgive you for previous errors, but you just keep pulling stuff off like this.

If you want a thriving game, don't try to sabotage the few good servers we have.

[Zeebee]

I just wonder one thing. Earlier today you fellows couldn't say anything about the state of char transfers, then a few hours later everything was all of a sudden decided and within one day the transfers starts to take place. I couldn't be happier with the news, but I'm curious what set off the reaction? Was it all posts about it earlier today? Or did you know about it even at the first post but just couldn't tell for some reason? Or was the entire decision made during the few hours between the posts?

Exactly!!!

edit: I think you can even remove the last question mark and frame it more like this:
The entire decision was made during the few hours between the posts!

I pretty sure that's how it happened. They needed 3 weeks to come up with such a short list that looks to be made in a couple of minutes. Common GOA give us a break and stop pretending we are stupid.

[Mazinga]

I have played with War for 3-4 weeks on Gothor italian server, then i freezed my account because the maturity level of players is very poor (a lot of harassment too)...the only way for me to restart to play with War is a transfer from this italian server to an english server...A positive response would be very appreciated!!

I have played with War for 3-4 weeks on Gothor italian server, then i freezed my account because the maturity level of players is very poor (a lot of harassment too)...the only way for me to restart to play with War is a transfer from this italian server to an english server...A positive response would be very appreciated!!

So reroll a new character on an English server. If i'm not mistaken (looking at Realm War) you haven't got out of Tier 2 with any of your chars :? it's not that much work.

Phase II is now live.

Hi Nic,

Are you sure? I just checked on the transfer tab in my account and there are no characters available to transfer even though I have several on Karag Dron I am going to move!

I also have this problem, I have a rank 29 Archmage on ABP thats not showing up yet?

I've cleared my browser cache just to be sure.

Same here, my chars on Karag Dron don't show.
In all the announcements it's Karak Dron, hopefully the devs didn't make the same mistake while writing code.

[Nic_GOA]

Thanks for the reports guys.

First things to check for all of you is to make sure you do not have characters of the opposite realm on the destination servers.

[cribzie]

My characters on Axe bite pass is not on the list either. I don't have any chars. on the destination realms and several is over rank 10

Also note that characters below rank 10 will not show up.

Phase II is now live.

Really? Strange that none of my eligible characters are.. y'know, eligible...

[Nic_GOA]

I can confirm that many people are currently not being given the option to transfer yet even though they should be getting that option. There is a problem with the transfer systems and we are looking into it.

Our apologies for the inconvenience.

[HellHitZ]

I can confirm characters not showing up on the transfer list, even after checking what Nic mentioned. =/

Anyone else noticed they wrote Karak Dron instead of Karag in the news? x)

[Saif]

Same hre, no character shows up.

[Zumanthor]

Same here, something is clearly wrong.

[t0ol]

empty list.. GOA style? =)

[Asterius]

How long will this tranfer phase be open?

[Jonnyrocker]

Hmm this has happened before announcing then yet not working!!

[Blackgem]

I have characters on both Karak Dron and Karak Orrud.. none of them are showing up for transfer.

[Wenger]

I am on Karag Orrud , my characters are also not showing on the list .

[t0ol]

transfered.

[Nic_GOA]

The problem is now solved and you will find the characters you can transfer in the list.

If your character is not there it will be because you already have a character of the opposite faction on the destination server.

We're still looking into the reason of the problem and will make sure this does not happen again!

[Kinkster]

[smf]

How do you freeze your account? As i want to do this until i can transfer my chars?

Thanks.

[loladin]

Hi Nic,

Does indeed work now. According to the history the transfer has already completed as well which is excellent. Am looking forward to playing tonight more then I have done in a while! I know I wont be the only one.

Hopefully you can bring phase 3 for those still waiting much faster.

For those on Hirn.

We are aware of the message in the character screen and it is showing up because Hirn is an origin server for Spanish people who want to move back to the Spanish server (as described in the news).

We agree that the message is misleading and we will be removing it shortly.

[jas72]

it should be character transfer is now live not life :eek:

[BigBadB]

Any news on whether the new destination servers will be getting the XP/Renown bonus?

Could you please look into the naming issue that several guilds are suffering from as posted in Suggestions and feedback? http://www.warhammeralliance.com/forums/showthread.php?t=216518

There is so far 4 guilds affected: Radiant Knights, Humberton Blackguard, Lanarchy and Griffon Knight. We all invested time and money in our previously acceptable guildnames and now due to the transfer forced upon us by low pop servers we now lost our names.

[JonasAnkan]

From news on war-europe.com

When you transfer a character and have to rename it, you cannot create a new name with special characters in it. People renaming their character and wanting a special character will have to contact CS after their transfer to ask for the renaming with the special characters.

After filling out the help form on war-europe.com and made a ticket ingame

We regret at this time we are unable to change this name back to the way you originally intended it.

So what too do now?

(The name is free - so that isnt it)

Cheers

[edit]

An ingame GM helped me.
When i moved the charater, i had it registred, deleted that character after I moved and someelse took it. And nothing I can do about it (as i was told).

So keep youre registred names whit special characters registred on you acount til you get ingame help, doesnt matter if they see that you had the name registerd on the server while transferd.

Hopes it helps someone

As the second phase of Character Transfers is now on its way I'm locking this at GOA's request. Please discuss where you will be transfering to on the server forums and as soon as there will be new information on phase III GOA will open a new thread.
