3. A lot of the transfers went back to Balmung but a much larger portion of them stayed and we have a very large and active RP community now.

4. My FC did manage to get a Large when they opened the extra 6 wards and housing transfers in each zone but we really want the houses around it to get sold as all of them are owned by inactive players that aren't even using them and we want active neighbors to hang out with us!

5. The two people that own the entire ward in Goblet still have a right to the fruits of their labour and we commie crybabies are still salty Simons.

6. The server is more active than it's ever been since I started playing the game, but I don't necessarily like that. I've always preferred the smaller server types personally. On the other hand, without the transfers my FC would never have grown in to the awesome community that it is.

Overall it was a net positive for the server and the people on it, our economy is better, our cities actually have people in them, and it's a lot easier to find and recruit for free companies now. But the growing pains were definitely a thing.
There I fixed it for you
