If you're asking if it's possible to move an account from one server to the next, it's impossible. Although I think mobile players can do that, not sure.

If you are asking so you can play on a new server... In the login page on the bottom of the page there is a server selector.

Even though I know what server I'm on, my account's name, and password, I can only log into it on my laptop, and not any mobile devices. IDK you what to do...

Mobile devices go to the Empire Four Seasons APP.  Completely different server.

Unless you have a device that can access the desktop version of the game, you will not get there from here...…….

The players cannot, but those who work at the datacentre can, I am pretty sure of that. It is how it is done when outers comes along. All players are connected to their own servers and it looks as though the accounts are copied onto another temporary server for outers. Probably explains the bugs.

Typically the ask is for someone's account to change servers already built, along with the OPs in Green and Outer Kingdoms.  THAT cannot be done.  Well, it CAN be done, but it would require customizing every location to match exactly what the account had on the other server.  For example, distance from Main to 8Food OPs, distance to Barbarian Fortress in Ice, and Sand and Fire, etc.  No way GGS would put that kind of effort into it, when they could have someone simply start fresh on the new server and BUY their way back to the same level they were at before.  

In the Outer Realms, the account name and server name are brought over, but that is all.  That is a simple matter of filling in the New Account information with the existing info.  In BtH they also bring over the Alliance name and group them together into an Alliance.  But again, that is a simple matter of data entry.  As far as I know, there is no way to enter those "temporary servers" directly.  You must go through your main server, and the login / password is stored there to get you into the URL of the OR/BtH.  

It would be GREAT if they could do REAL cross-server events with our actual accounts.  Not certain how possible that really is though.  

For the record, I support not allowing actual accounts to be moved from Server to Server.  With the VPN issues and cheaper to build accounts on certain servers, imagine what one of those VPN / Bot / Multi's could do with this ability...….

I know exactly how it works. It is just not possible. You know yourself that when a new player joins, that there are certain X,Y co-ordinates that are dedicated to castles, co-ordinates that are dedicated to ops, and co-ords that are dedicated to robber barons and a host of other areas. Therefore, the very idea of merging all servers, albeit a brilliant idea since it will reduce the server administration costs and overheads; is not a great idea since every player will have their fixed xy co-ordniate in place, whether it is green, ice, sands or fire. If they were to try and merge the servers, it would be a mess with castles on top of each other because they are sharing the same XY co-ordinates. I mean, could you imagine the mess if they decided to keep all the capitals for each server at say 657:657, that would not work. Nice idea, no chance!!!
