Please lock OCE servers to OCE players (At first)

[Tlamila]

By that logic, servers from other DCs that gave bonuses when new should also have been locked for people who aren't from those regions? But they never were.

And from waht i've seen even most OCE players aren't gonna go to those new servers, not with their main at least (at least according to the threads here) because they don't wanna lose what they haveSo if anything I'd sorry about underpopulation rather than overpopulation.

The housing won't be open for..1 month I think it was?

Sorry, but this just sounds like "we don't want foreigners in our servers' to me.

Yea from what I have read on the forums I would also be more worried about underpopulation, at least with mains because from forums anyway it sounds like a lot of OCE players are hesitant. Again... forums doesn't equate to the whole playerbase, but I would also be kinda concerned about that if I was an OCE player.

It did kinda smack me that way too - no foreigners to our DC right now. I mean I kinda get the concern but housing won't be available yet and when we've gotten new servers and EU got a datacenter, SE didn't close things up. They let people move freely because we can literally play on any DC in the world and SE doesn't really like breaking up friendships if they can help. Heck... even when servers were going down for good in 1.0 they told us in advance what servers were going to be in JP which in NA and we had time to choose where we wanted our characters sent so friends could plan out where we were going to go together. And it didn't matter if you wanted to stay on a JP server if you weren't in JP. I just really don't see SE shutting out anyone from moving to any DC or server, even if brand new.
