I was referring to the fact that if you want to stay with your default server, you don't have to do anything regarding the transfer application.I just read the instructions, and nowhere in there does it say that no action can be taken. And nowhere does it say if you chose a full server the first time, you'll be randomly selected to another server.
While this is certainly a case of user error, it's a bigger case of developer incompetence.
if you didn't click anything, nothing will happen and no one will transfer you. the instruction was crystal clear to me i think.
say hello to Ragnarok for me
Am I understanding correctly? If you set the dropdown menu to the words "Default Merged World" it now mentions a server by name, after you apply the selection?
I tried selecting my Default Merged World (DMW) by name (Ridill,) and of course, it told me to make another selection, as it was full. I, then, went back to the words "Default Merged World" in the dropdown, applied the selection, and it was processed and approved with none of the problems you mention. And the words displayed as my selection are still "Default Merged World." I just repeated this, just before writing this reply, and again it worked as described.
I didn't find this system to be complicated and/or unclear. But perhaps you've encountered a gremlin in the system. Another explanation might be that in between step one, and step two, you might have accidentally selected Ragnarok, and successfully applied this change. In this case, it seems to me, the system would've cleared your original default, and established your new default as Ragnarok. So, now, when you try to go back to Durandal, it processes the request as a transfer, not as your choosing to stay in your "Default Merged World." Because it's no longer your default merged world.
As I cannot imagine the displeasure of being thrown in a world of strangers at this stage of my game, I empathize with your situation and hope that you get the attention of the moderators here, and that your problem is solved. Other than that, have you tried calling the Costumer Service line?
Best of luck,

Rage quit until 2.0 bro.
If you click a different World.. Your "Opting" out of your Default World.. and someone CAN take your place. Thats why when I saw "Default World" I never clicked anything and left it be. If you wanted to stay in the Default world, then the Application didn't apply to you.
I think its plain bad customer care what SE is doing. How many people made the same mistake? Lets say less than 10? Less than 20? Its not gonna overload the server if they let them stay.
I am sorry but if you've been told constantly that:
If you dont want to move, DO NOTHING
And you go and click your own server when you're ment to do nothing, it is your fault. Not SE's.
I moved 2 characters to Gungnir, No issue, still going there, 14 Mules on 2 accounts are on "Default", and absolute no issue with them either, all of them going to default server.
Problem lies between the Keyboard and Chair here.
So this boils down to "I can't read properly and don't understand the concept of Default so it's SE's fault". Gotcha.
