I think it's fair to expect to be able to have fun playing with friends in an MMO you pay for. I also think it's fair to expect the company running that MMO to prioritise making this possible.
The incentives for people to transfer off are going to be aimed at people whose anchoring to the overpopulated worlds is monetary and practical - not social. The people complaining here are complaining about the social exclusion brought about by the action.
This change was made with no warning - not even 3 days' worth, which would have allowed people (several of whom have posted in this very thread) who were very certain they wanted to be on Balmung, for social reasons, to ensure that they were.
Regardless of the back-end reasoning for the decision, the fact remains that it is going to feel unfair to some people, and leave others feeling bereft or just disappointed. I think they're allowed to express that - especially in the calm manner they generally have been in this thread.
