    No, it's usually the opposite. People transfer to Asura to bring back stuff that's in short supply on other servers. It's still stupid either way though and I agree the lockout should be longer.

    It's the equivalent of using a VPN to buy steam cheap games from some poor country, then reselling them on key code sites for 4 times the price (which is why steam had to stop it, and now those poor countries have to pay sky high prices)

    Because of people abusing it all the smaller servers now have very high prices on everything (this is why they have to add add dyna d stuff to gobbie box and aman trove btw, that was the biggest one being massively abused). If the prices didn't rise, there would be nothing on the auction house to buy for natives on the server. Resellers would literally buy everything to resell for double.

    The server transfer system is terrible and abused, they should only allow transfers every few months. No normal person will transfer and then need to go back in a few days, that's all resellers and it should not be a thing. They even offer cheap server transfers so it's abused even more.

    Stop offering cheap server transfers, or bare minimum the cheap server transfer should have a 4x wait time or something.
