    Queue is irrelevant as a measurement. The issue is how many connections they can allow at once, which includes people who are already connected and through the queue.

    Houses should be designed in a way that the house progress never disappears though. It would help if wards were just a reflection of currently active players and inactive players just lost their plots but not their actual house and its contents, and gained a new plot when they returned to the game.

    I don't know about them transferring FCs though. That would be more complicated and there may be players that don't want to go. So losing FC progress may just have to happen.

    It's unfortunate if they don't understand the impact on RP when that is an aspect they have been putting a lot of focus on over years with bard music, gpose, decorations, emotes, glams, fashion accessories and things like that which have had lots of updates to them.

    This.

    I just can't believe how many obstacles this game seems to want to put between me and ever giving a F and feeling this game is relevant or applies to me anymore.
    I used to enjoy a game where I had a house, was part of an FC I helped shape, had a real people I knew with connections into the stc least foreseeable. It's now just such a shadow of what it was in terms of the stuff that 'applies to me'.

    - I will never again have all the work I put into making a house (with it's hanky UI) thrown away. So I refuse to have a house again.
    - I will never care about crafting housing items again.
    - I will never care about sharing housing or encouraging someone else or celebrate their house. (Housing is just kind of fomo poison. It's kind of tragic)
    - I will never bother helping build up an FC or community because the game just throws that hard work away by giving our subs to other stupid investments, not putting real effort into our game, and telling my well cultivated connections to piss off and play other games.
    - I will never bother helping build up an FC or community because the game just can't be bothered to stop eroding them with lack of cross DC PF.
    - I will never get to involved in submarines again.
    - The game doesn't want me playing engaging casual content because there isn't any.
    - At the same time game doesn't want me advancing to high end either because it makes it either literally impossible and time gate keeps me out via gearing (after telling me to play other games), or demands I start using add-ons to keep my Gil earnings up with mb rates (inflated by those who do use addons and are already farming high value drops in their statics), or make unbearable crafting bearable again.
    - It doesn't want rewards to be relevant, who needs orchestrions if you don't have housing to be proud of. No I can't be bothered with apartments. I used to have a small house and an FC I was properly part of. I'm not going to enjoy going back to an apartment.
    - It doesn't want there to be mounts for me to enjoy in any of the content I do.
    - It doesn't want me to care about glam drops from dungeons because I'll have to throw it all away anyway once my difficult to browse glam chest is full anyway.
    - It just doesn't want me to have fun or feel a valued part of the community. Your not high end? Well... really this game wasn't made for you. There is a bit of stuff to humour you. Go knock yourself out in sanctuary, and press x beast tribe quests. That's casual.

    Irrelevant game that wasn't made for me. That much IS TRUE.
    Maybe someone thinks it doesn't have to be that way, maybe noone does. I don't know.

    What OP hasn't yet realised, yet, is the severity of the disconnect between the constructed view of the game that exists thanks to the creativity in their own head, and the reality of the game itself. But they are starting to... hence their post... and once they do...

    Yeah I don't know about transfering FCs either. Not viable.
