Ooohhh! I thought copy meant that's when they would be fresh, not that the other server's would be deleted! I guess it makes sense for character name collisions or something..? Maybe..?
They basically copy the given server's database over to the PTS wholesale. Avoids name and ID conflicts (especially probable given that you can have characters on both servers).

I bet we'd still see these kind of threads even if ZOS posted in inch-high letters on the top of the page that the EU characters only were copied over this time...

I knew EU characters were being copied, I didn't know that "copied" meant that other characters (in this case NA) were overwritten / deleted, as that is not expressly implied by the definition of the word "copy". For instance I'm sure you copy files around your computer all the time without the rest of your computer being wiped clean in the process.
