    Maybe, maybe not. But I wish people would stop 'assuming' that they are not well above average, or that everyone else can do what they do if only they have the right attitude.
    I'm going if topic but I have met people who believe that you can achieve anything in life if you really want it enough. They meant anyone, they meant anything. I even challenged them with 'like you can be ground breaking 'Theoretical Phycisist' if you want? The next Einstein? And they said yes and I actually believe they believed it. I've met people who think that people can cure their own Pschozphrenia and Alzheimer's if you muster enough mental fortitude or whatever.

    It could be everyone can be savage raider with a bad ping but I'm not convinced. I think some people (not that small a number, have only X ammount of time to practice, are at a neurological disadvantage, they can do it with help, but disadvantage like bad ping will be just that bit too much)

    Some people just don't have what it takes to fly a fighter including high workloads for 8 hours and guarantee not to crash it at the end when landing back in the carrier even in bad whether. And there is a while spectrum of realities in between.

    Well that's obviously not true because disabilities exist and some people do actually have different development to eachother (internally). Also, in some people their body or their brain does actually permanently get affected by stuff long before they are aware but they don't get scans regularly to know about it.

    I am really only talking about an average person and in a lot of cases it's more to do with them believing they can't do it rather than they actually can't. A lot of people who change their life often say they wouldn't recognize the person they were (take a lot of people before they were famous and had a schedule book for every spare hour of their life, for example).

    With raiding people love to find reasons why they can't do it, until something makes them try it out and they discover it's not as bad as they thought (friends getting them to do it, or unsycing it but having to do mechanics and gaining confidence, watching streams, etc).
    It could be everyone can be savage raider with a bad ping but I'm not convinced.
    If we were discussing playing on an Australian server, I would agree with your point, because often that sort of ping difference can make you have to predict your movements in games. But the ping difference between EU and NA is not usually big enough for that and VPNs can make it even better, so it mostly just affects weaving.

    And if you mess up the weaving you'll probably still be able to clear anyway.

    I think they meant you could go to Dynamis temporarily until Aether opens up IF you hadn't transferred to a Preferred world and got stuck there. I think it's too late for that unfortunately.

    Unfortunately sometimes you make a mistake in life and you have to deal with the consequences.
    I'm sorry this isn't the answer you wanted, but sometimes that's the case.

    See you in February.

    This making is excuses for Square Enix is not ok. Humanity is about fairness and helping each other out. Square Enix have the power to find out if this looks like an honest mistake and fix it. This is counter productive. Square Enix are falling short and need to do better.

    Calling Square-Enix phone support three times I was met with the same: I need to wait 90 DAYS to transfer again. Even though I reported this immediately the moment it went through, I'm being told I need to "deal with it" (or another person even suggested I make another character...). I'm unable to play on an EU server from US with the latency.

    Even if I have to be moved to another server on US that isn't on Aether... otherwise right as my most anticipated patch (FFXI-related) is about to release I'm completely screwed over...

    I reported this within minutes of the mistake yet no one can help... please...
    This is appalling. If Square Enix can't help with this is awful.
    They can see when you transferred.
    They can see if you did anything dodgy like claim a region locked promo item.
    So they can check it's a mistake.

    Have you tried logging an in game 'ticket'

    Even worse you've just transferred to EUs dead DC I just left.
    PLEASE let us know if they help you by editing your original post . I'm gonna bump this every time I log in.

    One of my top 2 reasons I've unsubbed is lack of cross DC PF shows SQX don't care about the awful experience waiting to destroy sprouts experience once they start to get to end expansions and their friends get to end game.
    in putting this in that category of MY dissatisfaction. I want to see this fixed

    (back for the free 4 days... worth of content. Figured I'm owed at least that much after wasting 1 months sub prepping for Chaotic, and then another month coming back for admittedly great CEs but 0 reason to do them in the first place. Certainly not the story.)

    It's a travesty for sure. It's like SE needs to have a system in place where you are asked multiple times and make you click confirmation boxes to ensure that you're making the choice you want to make. Oh wait.

    Of course they can't help as everyone could pull the same card although their intention is buying stuff from MB before returning. It gives you lots of warnings prior to the transfer and as regards to ping I have 2 Americans in my FC and both play fine and do savage.
