I don't want to transfer, so WHY are you forcing me to?

[Biggs]

Why do people feel the need to attack someone who is asking for help? What did they do to any of you? What was that? Nothing? You hardly know them? Then why in the world are you acting as if they are a criminal for making a mistake? Honestly...

If you don't have anything positive to say in order to help, then why say anything at all?

Simple answer is because many people that post on here Rousseau are arrogant pricks with zero consideration for others. That is the short answer anyway.

Sorry to the OP if you end up on Ragnarok, anyway that happened sucks ass.

BTW! i checked, you have to go through a couple of screens and click submit before it actually sends in an application for transfer, this person coulda hit back or cancel at any time.

I think its fairly obvious they understand that. They went through the entire process and selected Durandal. Now they're being put on Ragnarok with no option to cancel, and no confirmation.

Until you click confirm there isn't movement (and thus your spot lost) from your default server, you gotta click and click again to apply, its not an oops that can be made, if they obviously knew they didn't want to be on ragnarok they should have cancelled instead of submitting an application to move to ragnarok. Cancel = Undo and you can't tell me anyone doesn't know that much. lol

Ya, the only fault I can find within the information is they don't make it a point to mention that "if you don't choose you will automatically be sent to the default server option of your server". Since the option for Default Server is listed with the other servers one may assume that you have to select to define your option if they didn't notice that "World Selected For Transfer" clearly states "Default Merge World" for those who haven't picked.

Here is one point I agree with. I was surprised that they didn't say up front 'do nothing if you don't want to change worlds.'

To be safe on the first day of the merger period I went back and reread dev posts on the topic of the merges and there was a mention of 'not having to do anything,' but it was a bit vague and it was said it in passing. SE probably should have put a large label warning people 'don't do anything if you want to be automatically merged to the default world for your server' on the merger login page.

I know it may seem obvious, but it's not unreasonable to want to be sure you won't end up on a totally different world from your in game friends. This could especially be true for people who haven't played in months, but got SE's e-mail about the mergers taking place. A comment up front from SE would have reassured people that they could safely do nothing and end up in the right place.

I'm not trying to argue that SE is responsible for mistakes made by the uninformed. If people are unsure what to do they can contact the SE support center and ask.

Yes, in this page (link) we displayed how the server merges are going to be and if you are OK with that merge you don't have to do anything.

Yeah, OP's obviously dumb. He should have known to check page 286 of a topic translated from the japanese forum by another player.

What did he expect? For this information to come from an official english source? Or for it to be in the migration page? Or in the lodestone's front page even? What a tool! Lets toss bricks at him and laugh!

First of all, its morons. Second, did you even look at HiirNoivl's link? It was a japanese forum admin responding a very specific question.



This should have been summarized and plastered EVERYWHERE.
