1.0 players are far from the only ones in this situation. Worlds filled up. People couldn't create characters on them. Their options were limited by service restrictions, and some were only eligible to join JP servers. Others had friends from 1.0 who didn't watch the FFXIV twitter during the game's several month hiatus for the ninja notice about transfers only being available in the middle of beta, months before launch. Those people had to choose between playing alone on NA servers, or playing with their friends on JP servers, assuming they were lucky enough to buy the game before sales were halted, and create their accounts before the rest of the masses filled everything up. Yes, I'd call these service issues.

Agree or disagree however, it's kind of hard to justify the lack of equal communication to all players.
