Please remove character age restriction on server transfers

I recently ticketed the support team to try and make my character an exception to an odd rule so I can go play with some new friends, but was unsuccessful. I don't really see why my character has to be 90 days old to do a transfer. I think there are a variety of things that are important to block players from doing, but blocking "new" characters from server transfers is silly. Maybe it makes sense to block someone who hasn't even unlocked their first job, but to block a character that can start to do Stormblood Savage raiding? Is there truly no way to get around this arbitrary restriction without wasting time with making a new character?

The 90 days only occur if you took the free transfer that was offered a while ago or even still is. If you paid for your transfer, you can transfer again after 3 days. So no there's no way around that, and while I think it should have been capped at 60 days, you will have to wait.

This also applies to characters that have been newly created on the prior or still new worlds, as well as the formerly dead servers.

Yeah if you took advantage of the free transfer then there had to be limit on the number of days before you can move again. Just think of it like this, if there was no limit during the free transfers, players could move around as much as they want, buy cheap on the market board and then sell high on another world. Inflation is already a problem on some worlds so it's better not to make it worse. Transfer limits also helps to stablise world populations. Having the limit was the agreement for accepting the free transfer though to be fair...

I've never transferred. I joined the game in late June and created my only character on Mateus. If the Mog Station wasn't under maintenance I would go and attempt a server transfer right now to show that I can't.

The 90-day restriction applies to characters that were transferred to or created on a new or preferred world.
Such characters got certain bonuses, and the restriction on transferring them away was likely to stop people from taking advantage of these bonuses and then transferring away to some other server at once.
The reason for the bonuses was to encourage people to move to low-population servers - and preferrably to stay there for some time.

Mateus was designated as a preferred world back in June, and thus any characters created there at that time would get the 90-day restriction.
