yo obnoxious, inb4 someone here makes you lose your ****...
thanks for paying attention to this topic, many cata players/ex-cata players feel pretty betrayed by the server and i would like to thank you for being here and being calm and patient with us whiners.
If i could suggest,
many cata players arent pissed off about not getting coins/getting exactly what they want, i think its more about not getting SOMETHING for their time and effort. I know the argument is "Go to MoP, something has been given", but lets be honest, MoP is a vastly different game from cata, for many players its just "not the same". Many people also dont like the expansion because, for me atleast, MoP was incredibly weird.
So once again, if i may suggest, dont ask them if the cata players can get coins or a special transfer system or something,
give us what we need to create NEW characters (not remake old ones).
give us 2-3 lvl 80 boosts with an ilvl 219 or 232 itemset (make us choose between pvp or pve, not both)
give those lvl 80s 440 proff (so we can make the last few items, or max if you are generous)
give them enough gold to just be able to fly in northrend (not the 280% speed, 150% is enough).
I believe making a system that can give us that may take some time, but it doesnt put us infront of everyone else and neither puts us behind everyone else.
You also leave us space for donating for hc gear etc.
I understand that its not up to you to give us this, but you can pass it upwards if you think its a good idea.
Ty for being patient with us in our grieving and when you do manage to be able to play, have fun!
