We have people transferring to complete the MSQ and coming back.

An option for those with limited time / money / and no house.

Edit: Players in this thread have tested this and found it to be correct. Details on page 6 of the thread.

Those people are impatient fools.

Why? Because they have the money to spend how you wouldn't choose?

Hey, it's their money and it's a solution they found viable. I'm not knocking it.

Don't you get locked out of transferring for awhile after you do it?

[Kaisinel]

Japanese players always takes priority over North America ones dude, just they way of the world with SE they did the same thing with FF11

Don't you get locked out of transferring for awhile after you do it?

Yes, you get locked for three days.

EDIT: Actually I might be wrong on that. I thought there was a restriction but I only see the one for newly created characters, and the 90 day lock for New/Preferred World.

It's 3 days, yup.
