Also, existing EverQuest II players in Europe that have played on U.S. servers before the transition will be allowed to continue playing on those servers through their SOE accounts.

This is the important part. This, nothing else tells me that there is no IP lock in place.

But all the Euro servers will move over to Pro7. Means all characters on them will only be playable via Pro7 accounts.
Well this means if you have char on EQII server you are not forced to move. But what it tells about completely new game where you have no connections to soe servers and characters there?
And i bold important part. Before transition. After that EU players wont be able to crate account/char there. Its only for continuity, not to make players too much angry.

Almost all my friends are from Werner (euro server). I dont know where theyll play yet, but i wont play on euro servers. US servers (and i hope i convince many friends to come there too), or nothing. Not under pro7 rule.
