I left Balmung and got hit with a lobby error the moment I attempted to log in. Other people on preferred worlds had similar log in errors; with houses gone within 15 minutes. Guess transferring doesn't accomplish anything.
I also left Balmung and went to a smaller server. In 2 weeks after leaving, both me and my friend who left with me found houses. We didn't have any lobby errors on Tuesday and I could have moved to Shirogane easily, had the money but I prefer Lavender Beds. My friend did move to Shirogane without any issues. We both left some of our friends behind on Balmung, but we still talk to them almost every day via Discord. When SB launched, we didn't have any issues logging in and were doing the new content without issues until we hit Raubahn EX, but that cleared in a few hours and we were able to continue without a hitch. At the same time, our friends were in a very long queue, they had to wait hoooours to actually log in in the first place. Last Tuesday, I logged in almost immediately, while our friends on Balmung again had issues.
Point is, there are servers that don't have these issues. I see you went to Cactuar, which is still a fairly large server, so those issues remained.
