My characters are not showing up...

I made an account and characters months ago, and only now finally started playing again. I thought I remembered that you could take your characters to any world...like, I could play on Ghallanda one day and Orien the next with the same characters. Is that not possible anymore? Was it ever?! Anywho, reason I'm asking is because my characters do not show up when I try to log on to any world except Ghallanda.
I'll assume that I have to make new characters for other worlds, but please correct and inform me if I am wrong!

Eek! Sorry, didn't read the post about characters being lost -- sorry! Also, I don't know how to delete my post...sorry to clutter up the forum!

No worries. To more fully answer your specific question, characters are specific to the server they are created on. Now you can move them to a different server, as we have World Character Transfers as a Premium Service. It costs $24.95 to move a character, and there are limitations on often you can move them.
