    As for housing yes its a total mess and SE doesn't seem to want to fix it. I'm lucky to have both mine and my FC's house. If I lose them I can just find another place that's quiet and easy to access to afk and enjoy some quiet ambiance.

    People are quick to blame the product, but the people are equally guilty here sadly. Just because you can go to the server doesn't mean you should. SE enabled yes, but ultimately the people that went for it are what are causing the problem.

    The reason for the overpopulation isn't the issue, the server crashing an entire DC and taking all the other servers with it is the issue.

A lot of people hate on Balmung because when that server crashes the whole DC, we ALL lose sub time. Not just the server, but the whole DC while its clear that people on Balmung are saying its tech related. Many tech savvy people here on the forums have tried to explain the actual expenses of hardware upgrades. Especially when SE has said they don't wanna have to rebuild their infrastructure from the ground up.

    So by trying to force SE to upgrade the servers, SE is executing their last ditch effort to relieve stress: forced moves. The community brought it upon themselves. I'll be losing touch with a few friends, but guess what? That's what things like discord are for.

    We're too far in to get SE to change their mind. You just have to accept it. If you wanna try to make a change then you have to speak with your wallet.
    SE's fully at fault for this problem, why are you saying otherwise? Fun to insult a group of people? fun to argue with people? Fun to get people upset for no reason?

    Also people do not have to accept it, I think people here are missing something critical here. We do not need this game, people are free to unsub to cause SE loss in revue due to disagreeing with these poorly made decisions. The Server crashing a full DC is SE's fault for running outdated hardware/software/ 1.0 coding. The playerbase shouldn't have to put up with it.

Just like moving in real life. It sucks, and you gotta haul a bunch of stuff around, and get re-situated, but it's not that bad.
    More of "this does not effect me so it is not a big deal" It is a big problem, free transfer is not enough, getting gil back is not enough, getting 3 Mil for SE not giving enough inventory space is not enough, we should be getting a house back for SE's shortcoming. We should not be losing anything for a problem SE made.

    Also to echo, 700 furnishings is very realistic number for someone. do you want to know the number for 1 character that owns a large house, founder of a FC where the FC house is a large, furnished that, who solo built the shop of 4 airships and 4 subs to max level, a FC room and an apartment? Do you really think 3 mil is anything close to reasonable to put all that together? No gil amount would be, the time invested far outpaces anything SE can offer gil wise, because offering enough gil to everyone in situations like that would cause insane hyperinflation.

    We do not want gil, we want our house back, something we earned, something we put a lot of time into, something a free transfer and 3 M gil does not get back.

    Lastly, don't you dare think we should ne "grateful" or "thankful" for SE not charging for transfers for 2 weeks. SE knows better then to kill off their game outright. It is not for our benefit. They only care about money and profits.

    Then lets not forget players like hosuing cat (a house hoarder that posts here who happens to be on gilgamesh) Guess what kind of players are going to be really making out after this change? The aether playerbase like housing cat who will be able sell Aether housing at insane prices because of the shortage.

    So why do you think some want to blame the playerbase?
