no free transfer

Excuse me, but when the EU data enter was created, wasn't there an opportunity to move? This move affects the remaking North America servers, why would there be any free transfers to EU? Seems you want two bites at this cherry, does that really make you 3rd class?

There's no reason to offer free transfer. You should have relocated as they introduced the EU data centers instead of blaming SE for moving their NA data center to a better location.

If I recall correctly - Yes, there was.

Away from them, not to them.

Ah, yes. Source here:

Because the Chaos data center is being relocated, certain players may find they are no longer playing on a desirable World. In order to address this issue, players will be allowed to transfer from Worlds within the Chaos data center to Worlds within the Elemental, Gaia, Mana, Aether, or Primal data centers free of charge for one week.

Residents in the North American region playing on the Chaos data center may begin to experience issues with latency after the transition. We ask that you try the game after the transfer, and if you experience connectivity issues disruptive to gameplay, consider using the free World transfer service while it is available.

I guess that the majority of NA players having constant trouble with logins, lag/ping, packet loss and dc's are not relevant, because all that matters is that you are playing with your friends and your ping will be different. I see where that discussion is gonna go.

And NA, the players the NA servers are for btw, will be getting less. Seems to be a non-issue for everyone but you.

I'm not being funny but if you are playing on a server that isn't for your region you should expect a higher ping. i've got some people i know in the NA servers but i never thought it was a good idea to play on them since i'm in the EU. You made the conscious decision to prioritize people to play with that you know over the possible connection issues.

As Luna said you should have moved when they moved the EU servers at the latest

So what's more important to you? NA friends or lower ping?

There was already an opportunity for free transfers when the EU data centre was created. If you were there for that then you're going to get zero sympathy in this case.

So, in short because it affects a small portion of the player base and specially you: burn them!Grow up, you're not the center of the universe !
As the others have pointed out, the information was made available since March and as you're an EU player, you should play on Eu servers or like this cry in a corner like a little kid. Again, grow up !
