I've been away from the game for a few years, a few things are a bit hazy to me from what I think I remember. I can't seem to find a direct answer at the moment so I'll ask here.

With the server shuffle and split in the near future, I'd like to transfer my character to Mateus, the alternative server for Role players since Balmung may be forever congested. My fear is that once the free transfer is happening, the server might become blocked.

My question, if you already have a character created on a server, are you allowed to transfer another character to the server, regardless of congested status? Should I preemptively park an alt on my desired server for the day the free transfers arrives? Or are all transfers blocked once a world becomes congested?

Thank you for your time.
