Playing from.EU, old DC meant around 140-170 ms for me, which often enough meant that oGCD use was wonky, and in case of playing Healer, caused issues with 'stance dance', or caused my DRG to do DRG things like drop BotD or die.

If my connection now drops to 200+ latency, I'm going to unsub, unless SE pays for the 'Gamer VPN' for me, or provides a no-restrictions chartransfer for free.

This is why SE gave out FREE transfers to EU players way back so they can play on their datacenter. It's not SE's fault EU players decide to play on NA servers (for whatever reason) after making a datacenter just for EU. You're not entitled to a free transfer that boat has sailed.

They gave out free transfers for those who were playing within the Chaos datacenter to move out to the other datacenters, not the other way round... but they really should have.

Ah I see my apologies then I just looked it up and yeah it was that way. Could've sworn when they moved it they gave EU players the chance to move there, but yeah I agree they should have done it the other way around for sure. Still though it's unfortunate but it's the risk someone takes when they step out of their region and take the chance playing in another.
