After a recent attempt to move people from the Odin server, Square Enix has come out today and announced that in spite of their attempts to offer free transfers to other servers, that Odin is still over populated. Because of this they will be offering world emigration again. While that is all fine and dandy, there is one part of this recent post that upsets players.

    In case the emigration campaign and the above measures have no effect on the congestion of the Odin world, measures such as forced transfers to other worlds or splitting the Odin world into a number of separate worlds may be considered.

Would this be the smartest thing for SE to do? One popular forum has players posting and saying things similar to:

    After all the stupid things SE has done, this would make me quit.

Surely there has to be a better way to deal with this than randomly distributing people from the server to others. Friendships would be broken, linkshells would be destroyed. More importantly though for Square Enix: They would lose subscribers.

They're retaining that server? Its crazy that it got to that point in the first place... sucks to be the odd people out, whoever get moved against their will.

Um, you do realize that an MMO server is a finite resource, right? I'm sure that Square doesn't want to force transfer people, but you gotta do what you gotta do if the game's not working.
