Thanks for the response. I must suck at this game because it took me about 30-40 hours to get to level 27. I'm just going to live with it I guess. Square support was no help and all they could say was, "We get this complaint all the time, you are not alone." $18 is not going to break the bank, it's more of the fact that I've all ready committed $200 to play this for a year, and now I have to spend $18 more if I want to actually play with other players. I'll just cross my fingers that one day they'll run the free transfer again like they did back in October, and I'll be able to leave the deserted world of Mateus.
