Are you #@$%ing kidding me?!?!?!
Before expansion?!?!?!



This is getting ridiculous.

Why did we waste all of this time reorganizing the servers and then pull this less than one month later?

Free Companies on these servers are not going to bother advertising for Final Fantasy XIV any more if you keep locking the servers before an expansion. I've had 10 separate advertising projects prepared to pick up our WoW players. Everything was aligned. Now this. This was a waste of time.

Make Free Companies Cross-World Membership if you can't get this fixed!!

Word of mouth is how you get a successful brand.

And no, they're not gonna settle for another server if players can't join their friends in the same guild. If this was your plan to fix things, you wasted a lot of money and insulted your community with a gimmick.
