Hey Teila. In the Transferstructrue bug thread Doc said no fix yet, no exact ETA for one, but maybe in a couple weeks. But if I were you, I wouldn't hold my breath. If and when they do fix it, it will probably be a stealth fix with no warning.... as it came in, therefore shall it go.

The fixes are usually much trumpeted..its the bugs that sneak in stealthily in the darkness
There is no eta but we are probably going to see a round of fixes and minor enhancements in the coming weeks, but there is no way to know if this will be one of them yet.

Hate to say it but I don't think it's bug. Here is a direct quote from CSR JorgeS "It is not a bug. It is supposed to work that way. We changed it. You will have to delete your vendors to transfer structure". This is what everyone who puts in a CSR ticket is told. Don't hold your breath for a fix... maybe they will changeit back if enough ppl complain but I really think they did it on purpose to fix some supposed exploit. Don't know why the dev told Doc it was a bug... I am in the same boat about wanting to delete a toon and having a mall on his lots. I decided just to get everyone to move their vendors. it's not good but they are mostly willing. Luckily most of them don't have huge numbers of items on... except me and one other person. Still, it is a MAJOR PAIN IN THE REAR FOR NO GOOD REASON!

I have asked Tiggs twice and she has confirmed that it is a bug.

Sometimes I think the CSR's look at it from the standpoint of "this is how the game is working so it is working as intended" without regard to whether or not it's supposed to be working that way.
They aren't developers. They're just people trying to manage the game as best they know how but there are so many billions of things to know about that they can't possibly know them all. Plus, I think they have to exercise some degree of skepticism because so many players would try to pull a fast one on them. Kinda like when when the cop pulls you over and you tell him "no, officer, I have no idea why you stopped me. There's no way I could have been going 15 miles over the speed limit."
Unfortunately, sometimes it does seem that they just do a quick knowledge base search and copy/paste whatever answer pops up on their screen, tho.

The game is huge and the job of keeping everyone in an organization on the same page is daunting even when the data they have to keep up with is far less than it is here. I have asked again for a clarification on this issue quoting that CSR directly. Hopefully I'll get an definitive answer.

well i have started the duanting process of having everyone move thier venders out of our mall, cause bug or no it will still be weeks (if bug) or forever if it was intended. im just so frustraded with the fact i cant change toons without screwing my guildmates over. im offering a decent amount of money to every vender owner for the inconvenients... so not only is this a major paint in the rear but it will also cost me a few million credits
