    It shouldn't make any difference when it comes to server access, though i have to wonder which EU country is excluded from the EU servers ? :/

    Well the Baltic region is in the EU but is forced to play on the Russian server and for historic reasons it's a real insult.(not to get political or anything)

    So not actually EU then, The problem is that Kakao doesn't have the licence for countries that are not actually a part of the EU or NA, despite proximity. Can't you play on the Oceanic servers? because it sounds like you are in the same position as the South American players. :/

    Well Im from Latvia and we are in EU since 2004, but still coudn't play in EU servers because of agreement between Kakao and Gamenet. (Post USSR countries are tied to RU servers)

    Russian BDO servers turned off at 12 oct 2018 23:40 (Moscow time) due to GameNet publisher license expire and wipe is imminent. PAs blame GameNet and GameNet blames PA. RU and UA players get wipe and frustration........
    If they don't request the transfer then that is inevitable, short answer, request the transfer and nothing gets wiped, if you don't ask you don't get, probably a good way of weeding out inactive accounts too. ;)
