Transfer Restrictions and Roleplayers

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

It seems Mateus is far ahead in the polls of 'new RP server'. Enjoy!

Yeah, but how many Balmungians are going to actually transfer? Or is this more for people getting started and looking for an RP server?

A lot of us are taking gil there and bringing alts to buy up those delicious plots.

I mean, is it 'worse' if they're empty anyways? Nobody's using it at all, what's wrong with an alt using it?

Well, if you are trying to get RPers on a server, and you take all the housing with alts, that might not make people very happy lol

I mean if the alt is lvl 50, has the gil, I see no issue with it. There's someone who moved over with all of their gil to pick up the last mansion in Lavender Beds. If nobody's using it in the first place, I don't see the issue. Besides, if they like it enough they might move their mains?

...Why would someone want to move when they've already got a house, after all?

Larges are constantly filled on Mateus. That one was likely auto-demolished quite recently. We recently had two mansions demolished in separate wards of Goblet and they were snatched up within 24 hours.

So yes, an alt just took a mansion someone actually playing on Mateus could have used. Mansions are in high demand here; they are absolutely being used. You've probably never spent prolonged time on this server.

Mateus has an extremely healthy leaf population. One of the healthiest I've seen on any server. In my ~9 months on Mateus, wards that were previously empty have filled up.

So while they aren't being used yet, they certainly are being bought by Mateus natives. Yes, that is compounding a housing problem, even if our turnover rate is decent.
