    I'd be against this for a purely selfish reason, 'cause I don't think I could convince all my non-rper friends to transfer off if there was some kind of mass rper exodus, and then even if I decide to transfer off, or stay, I'll still be losing half my friends. :<

    I see it as a sacrifice worth making. Perhaps to make that easier, SE could make a free company transfer service of some kind.

    Oh I'm adding the presence of a free transfer option into this hypothetical scenario.
    And even if they were to transfer off with me, they'd be leaving their non-rper friends behind, and so on.

    Let's be real, if Balmung grows any further, it's going to get worse. Remember when the server crashed on the first night of the make it rain campaign? Our server is so strained. I'm honestly fearful for how the servers are going to act on Friday.

    I wasn't on when the server crashed so idk, but I do know that balmung is straining (raiding on server reset night was, and probably still is, a nightmare), I'm just giving a personal side to this discussion. Honestly, I think SE needs to figure out how to stabilize their server tech more than anything. The way they talk about it makes it sound like their servers and code are held together with spit and dreams. They blame the lack of features that other games are able to handle easily on how flimsy their servers are structured, and that's what's making me think this would be just a bandaid solution that at best would be delaying the issue from popping up again
