Dumb Server transfer rules

[LaylaTsarra]

Have you tried doing an online chat with a customer service representative. I had an issue once where I registered my window account incorrectly and they fixed it for me. I don't know if they'd do this for you or not but your request seems more than reasonable to me and you're not asking to be moved to a closed server.

how did you get auto placed? Don't recall that ever happening when I've made alts on other servers

I'm confused on this too.

I've created new characters to test before using Fantasia potions and while it does auto choose a server, you have the option to change that before you actually begin.

It is easily missed. When I first started it auto-selected Adamantoise for me, while all my friends were on Cactuar. And this was before the cross-world stuff, and jump potions, so it wasn't as bad(except for having to stay up until almost 2am to create a character on Cactuar) as what the OP is experiencing.

Oh ok. I kind of figured this, but wasn't 100% sure.

Now i find out i have to wait an entire 90 days cuz the game auto put me in a new world.

You can pick the server you make your charater on ( so long as it isn't a locked server ). This is an error on your part, not the games. Sorry.

What you have to do to play palace together: one of your friends (or you but the other way round is easier) will have to set up a cross world party in party finder. Make a private party so you can set a password. You then can access pf on your world and join their group. Apart from hanging out together, chatting and queuing for duties will work as they normally would. I haven't tested this myself, but entering palace of the dead should also work like that, just have your party leader talk to the Npc. You all probably gonna have to be in Quarrymill for this to work, if you're on the same server you have to, so I don't see why this should be different in cross world.
Side note, I found out that if you unlock Gold Saucer and queue for the instances Triple Triad Battle Hall you can actually meet players from other servers there.
