4.0 characters moved to SW/Og

[Invisusira]

When 4.0 first hit, was anyone's character automagically moved to Stormwind/Orgrimmar? Just wonderin

[Chicken]

My characters that were in Outland or Northrend stayed where they were. The others all got moved to the Orgrimmar graveyard, though those were all logged out in Orgrimmar.

Every toon logged in the old world got moved.

not completely true - i had an alt logged in crossroads inn - now currently residing in barrens graveyard

I believe they force moved characters to the closest GY point to where they logged out if they logged in a zone that was changing.

Any of my characters I had logged in Org ended up being ported directly outside of Org in Durotar when the patch went live. Any of my characters that I had logged in Dalaran remained in Dalaran.

With how many characters moved to Org or Stormwind in anticipation of the removal of the portals, it probably seemed like most characters got moved there.

i had logged out on my druid in the park in SW (laying next to the former trainer) and he got ported to the GY just outside of SW
that one that we never seem able to use.....

the rest of my toons were logged out in IF or goldshire
and they all stayed put

I had a few that stayed in Dal, rest were moved to SW.

All my chars apparently stood in Stormwind. What can I say, it's cozy there.
