New Character Bonus (NCB)

The primary difference between the NCB and the NUB is that the NCB is a bonus to XP only. The NUB also confers a bonus to cash rewards and forging ( new users who join after 12/06/2007 will no longer get a NUB bonus to forging) to allow diligent new users to catch up with veterans in earning power.

On the New Character page, "applies to only one character at a time" means that you may not create another NCB character until the bonus on your last one ends. The lack of qualification here with respect to retirement or transferred status does indeed mean that these do not affect the time before you may create another NCB char. Additionally, any BA over 160 that is held at the time of NCB creation goes away, preventing massive build-up of bought BA to boost one's NCB.
