Hello I really didn't know where to place this but it is a technical issue 'technically'. Due to the high volumes of people moving to be amongst their friends during this major data centre move I really hope that I'm not the only one thinking that 14 days to move characters during this event the 3 day cooldown to move another character is absurd at this point. It really wasn't all too clear since its been being said that you can move multiple characters during this time that there would still be a hold back feature of the cooldown.
I just made the deadly mistake of moving one lone character to a server that our free company wanted to make their new home. Whilst I have another server with multiple characters as do all my other members on same said server that will have not enough time to complete moving lets say all five or eight of them to the new server of our choice to stay on the same data centre as another FC of ours. Not to mention these people have other mains and alts elsewhere they would like to keep on the same data centre instead of having characters tossed and strewn all about at this point.
I imagine the whole point of this is to keep people cohesive but for people with alternative characters this makes it hard to keep them in a cohesive manner with such a short timeframe and a nasty 3 day cooldown that in several players opinion should be waived right now so that all the transfers necessary can be completed so that they can continue to game without having to 'buy' more transfers later to complete their moves.
I understand that this must be very strenuous for this many transfers already to be occurring but it's really making it almost impossible since two of our FC's and friends servers were moved into crystal and everyone would like to stay on Primal where our main 'home' is on famfrit.
My point is that: if you have multiple characters that were on primal that got moved into crystal all those characters should be able to move freely during this free transfer period back onto primal into a lesser server without having to wait 3 days in between each character for optimal results. We have multiple character slots for a reason and many people enjoy having several on one or multiple servers but on the same data centre and this just really messed up a lot of the cohesion and I"m thankful that these are free right now but the cooldown is a bummer in the time frame we have. I'm just happy I don't have 20+ chars because that would be a major pain at this point. But even moving 5 at this point for a lot of my FC members is causing turmoil in the FC and everyone is very worried, having to 'select' certain characters and choosing one over the other to bring over is causing riots almost I must say...
