    Questions:
    1. Should I wait until SE opens up new servers or worlds, before using these free transfers? But, how long would I be waiting, given the difficulty SE is having in locating server equipment, etc.?
    2. Is there something...avoidable about Crystal worlds, given that they are the only "preferred" NA worlds right now?
    3. Would it be possible to use the free transfers for all three of my characters, putting them on the same world (one currently on Faerie, the other two on Siren)? Is it just a matter of waiting 3 days between each request?

    I'm just curious, seeking other opinions before I make a choice. Thanks!
    I will tell you right now, there is NOTHING wrong with Crystal. The reason why it's preferred right now is because back when the third datacenter was created and the servers moved around, some people went around screaming that Crystal won't be able to clear raids or even normal dungeons because they have Balmung and Mateus (ew!!! Rpers!) and that Aether/Primal is where you NEED to be if you want to get anything done. So instead of actually looking into things, people just believed them and piled onto Aether/Primal.

    I can assure you that we can both raid and do dungeons. And yes there are a lot of rpers here and on Balmung the Quicksands can become a cesspool but none of that stops us from getting through content. If anything it means we have so much more we can do while waiting for reset.
