    What POSSIBLE reason could be given for the decision not to let 1.0 characters move to non-legacy servers? The split is now largely redundant, as there are many multiple-Lv50-job levelled characters on non-legacy servers.
    Yoshida is the man making the rules, like them or not.

    And level 50 isn't the issue, it's the vast wealth many V1 players have in comparison with new starters, right now it's mostly RMT and gil buyers on the new servers that have cash reserves anywhere near those of the average V1-er, let alone those who were mega-rich in V1.

    I'm in the same boat, I wanted to transfer from Hyperion to the new server I have found a happy home on but I can't, so the resources and cash I worked for in V1 is useless. It sucks, I wanted to help my new FC buy a house once that content comes, but I understand why SE aren't allowing it.

    - Legacy players had their gil reserves reduced by 9/10ths. My 1.0 character had close to 2mil, which was reduced to a paultry 200k.
    - There is a limit to the amount of gil you can transfer with a character using the world transfer service.

    I feel both of those measures would largely mitigate the aformentioned concerns regarding economic balance. Besides, the people that do still have vast wealth from 1.0 are a very small percentage of players. As I have said, all my friends are new players, on a new server. They all have vasty greater wealth, levels, and better gear than I do. I represent a significant number of people in the same situation, including it seams, yourself.

    It would just be nice to have an explenation as to why we cannot move like everyone else, especialy given that non 1.0 characters can move to legacy servers. At the moment we can only assume it's an economic balance issue.

    BTW Zohno... I appreciate your response, but posting a link that is no longer available isnt very helpful. I knew it had been speculated one way or another, and my point was simply that nobody since the opening launch of the game could provide an official source on the matter.
