Aussie Server

[Nightroad]

When ARR started there was already a EU data center . The physical server locations at that time was with the US data center, in Canada.
There was the knowledge that the EU data center would move physically to Europe.

So everyone knew where to go at start up. Some chose to start in US anyway because of various reasons but when the" physical switch" was thrown, no one had a excuse for ending up on the wrong side of the pond.
There were some who complaint of course .

This time it is different i would guess.

In my opinion they should inform us sooner than later what their plans are.
They should flag the servers as OCE servers and/ or make a 'virtual' data center with giving people an initial chance for the transfers . So things can start to get settled earlier .
After the physical data center move another free transfer would let undecided players make the plunge.

Agree with this suggestion. I have an FC mate who is planning to buy a personal house as well but is holding out for now in case he needs to transfer server. But said he wish he knew if tonberry if being moved to the new datacenter so he can go ahead and buy his house now haha

That idea makes a lot of sense. Totally behind that.
