Hi I just read the newest blog of Anet and i went to the Facebook to ask a few questions but got none official answers maybe someone here know. I have a group of 25+ people that will play this weekend in my guild in Kaineng Server, this server had been removed.

Will i just choose another server and my characters will move to the new server or is a wipe for everyone on BW3? Start from Fresh?

Ill appreciate all of your help!

Server selections have been wiped as stated in their previous blog post. I assume they are doing some serious stress testing with fewer servers and the sheer amount of beta keys they have been giving out. I am really hoping live release will have more servers ^^.

You and all your guild members will have to form a new guild and pick a new server.

Hi there, it would seem all data except for your friend's list (which is linked via your account and not your characters) will be erased: this means all your characters are wiped and any subsequent data and items they had, your guild is wiped, and your server choice will be wiped. Therefore you will have to choose a new server from the list, make a new character, and remake your guild. So yep, starting entirely from fresh this time around.

It's been stated and restated on this website, the Guild Wars 2 twitter, and other sites that all data from previous BWEs are being deleted.

This includes characters and server selection.

Nice of Arenanet to also dedicate the server Sanctum of Rall to a deceased member of Gaiscioch gaming community, his name was Roger "Oldroar" Rall.

I didn't know him or play with the Gaiscioch community. My husband works with someone in the Gaiscioch guild is how I found out.

Yeah i knew after beta everything will be wipe but i didnt know before the beta, sorry is because English is not my main language :3

I think is fine that at least the less populated servers will have a population.  Is fine is just that i didnt expect my home to be deleted hehe, well just pick another one i guess, aw ill miss all the wonderful people there. Like the Chinese Guild TK or something. Im from Warfreak [WF] we play all games together so wont be a problem to find them since we all communicate outside for long, but all the other people snif snif ill miss them.


@Tilcir you are a meanie is to everyone got wipe not just me

So how to pick a server is there any new list of who will be in this or that server?
I want a underdog one, not one full of this pro sponsored guilds or sites.

This. I thought this was pretty clearly explained already.

Gonna migrate over to Jade Quarry, then, and hope that EG is brought back for launch.

At the start of BWE3, everyone will choose a new home server.

We understand that All Character will be wiped. But Still, Reputation and the Name/Guild can be recognize.  Its not Really a Big Deal that Kaineng Server got deleted because we can Go to a new Server. Problem is, We been PROMOTING KAINENG server in Everygame, We been inviting players to play in KAINENG Server. Now They are all Expecting to play in KAINENG Server who is not even in the List.

NOW We have to GO back in Every Game, Every Threads, Friends, All of the People to inform them the NEW SERVER That we going to play. The beta is next 2 days. We have Life's now it will be hard to play with all the people that we Contacted! This is a piece of shiet in our side. But who care's right. Only in our Part!

The only drawback to all of this is that I am gonna have to find a way to stay logged in, in the eternal battleground for the whole weekend.

I'm very concerned about what was said in this last blog entry. If you've been following Arena Net closely in the last couple of weeks, they've been giving out  A LOT of beta keys through different fan sites. I wouldn't be surprised if they gave away 100K or more beta keys, Add to that all the pre-purchasers.

That's a lot more people on a lot less servers. I really don't think I would enjoy attacking the same mob as 50 other people.

[Linfang]

What!? ANet is cutting down the servers before release and not after? This is blasphemy.

[Iron Legionnaire]

THEY DELETED SERVERS WHAT?!

Oh, my dear Gate of Madness is still intact. <3

[blakdoxa]

Best to spend your time trying out sylvari and asura but for the most part spvp and wvw!~

[Exeunt]

Who cares, it's beta.

[jirayasan]

Aurora Glade!
My Sylvari guild will be on there.

On topic: They removed servers to  increase the population of each server.

[Nrvnqsr]

Oh great, I just read this now. They removed Scavenger's Causeway for the beta and I told all my friends to go to that server..Uhhh hmmm i guess sorrows furnace will do for this weekend.

[Deyadissa]

I think it's mean to delete some of the servers part of the initial launch of BE1. There are many dedicated guilds on some of those servers that got deleted for later launched servers.
