Now this is already frustrating for a lot of players: new and old. Because this forces players to make a choice that will fracture communities, which is ultimately bad for the game. For example, a player get pissed off because of those reasons i stated above, so they stop playing. But now with the introduction of the "Suspension of World Transfers to High Population Worlds."

There is now no way for players to transfer their characters to some of these older players' servers (Legacy).

The developers (devs) are now forcing players to fracture their existing communities, just so players can play with their friends. It was already tough to get a new player to come play the game, really tough to get them to pay an extra $20.00 to transfer to your server, and now it's just straight up impossible to get them to come play with you beyond transferring to their server.
