Mogstation taking another step to the darkside

[linay]

Up until the end of HWs you couldn't create a character on those 2 servers because they were full. They had been locked shortly after the start of 2.0. But you could always create another character on another server and use the paid transfer to get onto them. So around four years they ignored server stability to take more cash in.

She is complaning about SE ignoring Balmung and Gilgamesh population prior to the data center split. As well as how they locked the server transfers destroying Balmung and gilgameshes players needs to cram everyone they came across on to thier worlds, with Balmung players being the biggest whiners about it. Basically players wanted the stability dealt with, when SE dealt with it players got pissed at how they handled it.

So, it seems like they wanted to reduce the number of people joining those servers without completely blocking people off entirely. Paid transfer is definitely one way of doing it, and a legitimate way in my opinion.
