Ok so I have a new idea for a reward for some contest. I hear alot of people say they want to transfer their chars to Nessingwary to join the guild but they dont have the cash. Well here is my idea. I need to clear this with the guild and petopia leaders but who would want to enter a contest where if you win your relm transfer is paid for by me.
Who would be interested

Sounds like fun, but you don't mention what would be involved in the contest.

If you're willing to do that I'm sure there wouldn't be a problem. I'm curious, though, as how you'd do the payment for the transfer? You can't gift a transfer to another account...would you somehow send the money directly to the winner?

I was going to ask the same thing. There'd have to be a lot of trust, sharing of identities, and a cash transfer. I think it's wonderfully generous, I just know I wouldn't participate for this reason. (At least I'm not as untrusting as Saturo. >.>)

I happen to have a reason.

I most likely would. I'd love to have friends for my Hunter to quest with, talk with while I quest and help people get their rare beasties. It'd entirely depend on the contest because I'm not talented in a lot of things but if it was something I knew I had some kind of chance at I would most definitely join in!

I will create a paypal account and give the winner the name and password. once they pay I delete the credit card on file and cancil the account. Easy huh?

If you don't want to use your own credit card, you could get one of those prepaid ones. I got one for Christmas, was pretty handy.

In that case it sounds like a pretty great idea.
I'd run it by Mania just to be sure, but seeing as how you're not trying to affiliate this as any sort of official Petopia contest I doubt there would be a problem.

Well, I was going to say: If you do it as official Petiopia idea, Blizzard may be willing to "middle-man" it. Possible future business venture for them?
That way you're guaranteed that the money is used for a transfer, and not let's say... beer.

Um. Dumb question. Isn't the first realm transfer free?????
I thought the first one is free and if you choose to change again after that Blizz charges you $25 and you have to wait three days.

Nope, the only realm transfers that are free are when Blizzard specifies a very full server and gives free realm transfers off of there to a new low population one.

i think its a great idea and so is using a pre paid card much safer plus, if it says the transaction isnt coming from blizz u can always cancel it.
