So I'm looking at server transferring to play with a bunch of real life friends but from what i can find if i transfer my character I will lose my house. My question is how the hell is that fair? I can understand not having it transfer because of land claims and all that but I don't get why I have to lose my investment just because I wish to play with friends. I know I could probably try to sell it off to some free company but thats a hassle and im not even sure if i can as it is set as private residence. so my options is stay on a server im not fond of and play alone or transfer and lose my 3+mil gil investment.

so would love some insight on why players are punished for wanting to pay together at the least refund me my plots worth.
