Please remove the World Visit Locks on certain servers, It's not that congested!

I'm sure it's been asked a few times before, but please remove the world visit locks on particular servers, especially Balmung. Unfortunately some of us are stuck on there and we lose out more than we gain, by transferring if we already have an established FC with subs and many rooms.

I really just want my friends to be able to visit me and hang out with me there instead of watching them try repeatedly at the Aetheryte and get frustrated than walk off, canceling all plans of doing so.

Please End this Lock, it's not as if there's that many people still playing. I feel before DT there were a lot more, and there was no lock back then, it was still easy to come and go as one felt. But now, POST DT for like a year, it's been so difficult and frustrating.

Housing is a big part of why I play this game, and it's quite discouraging is all i can say.
Please please please remove these 'congestion' locks!!

Offered Solution: Add a Timer That kicks people back to their home world after X amount of hours or after they log off for the night? It seems like it would alleviate a lot of the 'congestion' of visitors comin and never leaving. Potentially freeing up some space for people to visit.

I'll probably get dogged on for voicing all this, but at least it's somewhere out there where MAYBE... the devs will read. (doubtful, but i gotta have some hope!)

They most likely will review it at the next patch of 7.3.

However, even if Balmung isn't currently congested, they may anticipate that 7.3 will congest it due to all the returning players coming for the patch, and that may cause them to maintain the status.

As for a timer that returns people to their homeworld, that actually exists but as far as I remember it takes a month and it's likely to stop confused returners from making support desk tickets that end up being that they forgot they world visited before taking a break.

If they're only going to review it right before patches or after, then nothing will ever change, because of course things will congest and then uncongested after the hype dies down. I feel that should be something they review mid way or something, if this is how they're doing it at least.

And as for the timer, i didn't know there was an existing one! I hope they consider lessening the amount of time as 1 month is incredibly too long. 48 hours should be max. IMO. It would keep things moving faster.

They should do this for Aether, too. Right now it's really frustrating to wait in party finder forever, unless you forsake doing anything else in the game and sit on Aether. There's no point keeping it locked to "protect other servers," because they're all already dead. Preventing using PF on Aether might help, but it'd be overall worse, because the Dawntrail playerbase has died down so much that you'd be spending a long time in PF anyways.
