Spanish IP blocks are a dirty way to keep English as the main language in Horus, but until you can afford ingame chat moderators you can keep the blocks, but at least, unblock an account if they send you an email (in english) requesting to play in that server.

They probably can't, with IP blocks. If the user's ISP uses dynamic IPs, then NGD could unblock the player's current IP address, but tomorrow he may have a different one. They would have to unblock the ISP's entire IP range, which means any player on that ISP would be able to transfer. Things get hairy rather quickly.

NGD obviously has some concerns with opening the taps fully. Maybe they could experiment - unblock a few countries' ISP ranges, and track the Holas-to-Howdys ratio of the transfers, or whatever stats they are worried about.

I know that, that's why I said "keep the blocks but unblock an account"

if IP = spanish and account NOT IN t_unblocked
    block
else
    unblock
endif

P.D: Can't use tabs here for identation .....EDIT: thank's for the tip Gytha

Yup, that would work if the block is at a place in the pipeline that has access to the account data.

indentation
    works
inside
    code blocks :)

And even if it's not there....they can always change it

I don't think this would be hard to implement

Shh

Id think that hopfully they will fix the bugs on it before counting down to implementing a price, its not fair on people who couldent transfer because of bugs otherwise.

[Vague_Vision]

Well, im trying to transfer my character from ra to horus, and when i click on the character in the character list on the website, it says character cannot be found or doesnt belong to this user... so... what exactly should i do?
