Road to 70 Buff Disappeared?

[LythiaLioncourt]

I've been looking into this after our FC had a conversation this morning.
I created my char on 12/24/20 on Midgardsormr. 90 days from that would be 3/24/21. Midgardsormr is still listed on Lodestone as a preferred server.

And yet, my lvl 12 conjurer does not have the Road to 70 buff. I can't find very much information on this that comes from verified sources. Most of it is reddit or forum threads.

So by every measure (world still preferred, still within 90 days) I should still have this buff on my <70 classes, but I don't. Maybe it has to do with having multiple classes to 80 already? It would be nice if SE would give us some actual documentation on how this buff works.

Update: Was able to find a page that linked this: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodes...ion_balancing/
Which appears to be the only official documentation on the buff, but still doesn't explain why I lost it before 90 days.

It does however specify that you're not supposed to lose it.

"These incentives will remain in place until the active player populations of the Worlds in question have grown to a specified number. Please note that once a World has been removed from the "Preferred World" category, the various bonuses will no longer be applied. In the case of newly created characters, these bonuses will continue for 90 days (including the day of creation) regardless of any change in World status."
