I'm in the same problem as you OP. I like playing this game, and I am loyal to my server, and I want to welcome my friends into that community instead of having them being shoved into a random-ass community that I know nothing about. Refer a friend should lift server restrictions to the server of the recruiter for the recruitee. I can't imagine who thought gating people off from their friends would be a good idea.
And then people will sell access to populated servers and get all the rewards that go with it too. And the server will become even more overpopulated.
