I left ATL due to the overcrowding and go back when I need something or have a bunch that others may need ;-)

Stayed on my original shard despite having a full set of shard shields. Although Atlantic is my original shard, so there was really no reason to leave when anywhere else would have less people and less stuff to do.
You forgot the the "used them to spread out like a Virus and infect the rest of the shards" option, so I did not vote. Just sayin . . .
At first, when I got shard shields I thought oh great I'll go to all the other shards and bring home all the gifts I've gotten there... this will be awesome!
But after stripping a few shards I found I brought back far too much junk... learned there is a 10M cap on spring clean points, found I overloaded most my houses and kinda quit doing it.
But still felt the need to acquire shields to every shard. Strangely enough. I rarely use them for myself. Mostly now I use them to send suits and such to other shards to build tamers there. Otherwise, they seem pretty much deco.
I guess since I really don't "vendor" things they aren't really that great to me. Other folk like to go do EM Events on other shards but honestly, I don't care to play other shards. I rather decided that I want to keep focused on my own shard. Occasionally people will ask me to take something somewhere for them and that's fine... I'll sometimes then bring back some junk but meh...

I stayed on my original shard (not Alt) and use them to go get stuff for my shard and to sell my goods to Alt players.
Why is that? Not everybody wants to play on Alt. I should be able to vote twice as I have 2 accounts that get these with a 3rd on the way.
*sigh*. Yet another badly thought out poll with vital options missing. Why is it so hard for people to open a simple poll with well thought out options?
As with the client poll, this one is worthless due to missing options.

I had no interest in people whining how SS have ruined the game or other whines. I was curious on how many left their home shards to put to rest the complaint that SS caused a mass exodus to atlantic. Which by the looks of the poll that belief is nothing more than fiction.
*pees in craftsmans' Cheerios*
I’ll never leave my home shard, too many memories and friends made over the years.
I’ve collected shields for just over half the shards so far, not that I travel to them all. I guess it’s just down to being something else to collect. Whilst I do end up having breaks from the game I always login and collect my tokens, I’ve got more then I know what to do with
I do offer transfers to my friends or to be honest anyone who asks me, it doesn’t cost me anything and it helps others so everyone is a winner (apart from the company getting real life gold), but hey that’s a decision they made *shrugs*
Just my input really.

I left Atlantic and moved to Legends long before shields came out. . Only use the shields to go shopping, and bring home desired gifts received on other shards. And carry stuff around for other people, when asked.
I never questioned your motives. I questioned your ability to put up a meaningful poll.
Except your poll results do support the validity of the complaint. The complaint is not who lives where. The shields make the irrelevant as demonstrated by your poll which also show the economy is screwed on other shards because it centers on Atlantic and only those with shields benefit with easy access to a working economy. Thus all the used only for shopping responses. No one with shards needs to move from their home shards, that's kind of the point of complaint.

Yeah... I kinda resemble this option
but for pvp... Not em events if that matters hehe.
You need more options. I already played a few shards and now its easier to move around to more.
I have two accounts both with sheilds. I saved almost all my rewards on both accounts so I have 20+ picks and already claimed about 10 diff shard shields on each account so I can move around pretty freely. It has helped me consolidate my bods from various shards. I've also sent equipment to other shards where you can find anyone to make you anything so I can outfit characters to build.
LOL or as I called it infesting a new shard
See I thought you wouldn't have voted since you can't transfer from Siege... just saying hehe
I didn't vote because my option isn't on there. I transfer every so often to buy things that I can't get on my home shard and also to consolidate gifts. When I pvp'd I could have a character on each shard so there was always something to do.
So yes, I transfer but to say I rarely go home is incorrect.

Is your house on the shard you were on before you got the shard shields?
Mine is...
So are mine and it aint Atl.
You still here, lol?LOL or as I called it infesting a new shard
LOL I will always be *Here* Just won't be *There* anymore
I wouldn't see any harm in giving every paying account 2 shard shields, other than that the developers would lose money on transfer tokens. I would be curious to see how many real transfer tokens are actually sold through origin vs how many tokens are used in a month. Not going to go into detail, but I doubt it would impact their transfer sales.
That's a round trip to a server and back once a month. Pretty good incentive to keep accounts open from a financial standpoint, Would you rather have an extra house and 2 transfers a month to move items/shop, or pay for a transfer token.
If you think i'm saying that for my own benefit, I already have more shard shields than I should ever need.

Neither or both. I use my shields to expand what shards I play on. I've met so many new friends on shards I wouldn't have bothered starting on if I couldn't distribute my acquisitions from my home shard. I've stayed, and moved I guess you could say.
Yes for both of my accounts. One on Sonoma and one on Atlantic.
If you like this poll, you have to check out this one:
Just leave everything the way it is
You're going to love it...
So you stayed on your shard of origin because you didn't move your houses.
