"For every new friend you make, an entire night could be spent talking, roleplaying, doing content, yet with our server locked, its important more than ever to create bridges to meet new faces! Balmung Nights is a social club designed for the committed and isolated in mind, with an FC house, linkshell, and discord! The best part? Stay in your current FC and you're still a fully-fledged member! Come and meet new people, find parties, and be a night all your own!"
That's the recruitment ad! It was pretty hard to fit all of that information into one paragraph! As the ad says, we're creating a social group (not just an FC!) to solve some unique problems on Balmung. Those problems being centered on feeling isolated in a highly developed server, filled with established FCs and cliques that make getting into new social circles quite difficult if not downright impossible.
The goal of Balmung Nights is to be common ground for players in many different FCs and different categories. Hardcore, softcore, casual, raider, pvper, roleplayer, its a place of common ground who's goal is to get people to connect and mix, build new bridges, and make new friends. With our server locked, the challenges of overcoming the isolation present in Balmung is steeper than its ever been before, and from the people I've spoken too, it has been a leading factor in their decision to move away from Balmung into other (mostly Mateus) servers! With the way the social club is built, its goal is to only add another layer of social interaction and opportunity, and not take away. If you are in an FC, no problem! You can be a fully-fledged member by just joining the discord and linkshell! No linkshell slots open? No problem, just join the discord! No linkshell and no discord room left? Well, then it sounds like you have all the socializing you'll ever need!
I'm not exactly an expert myself in how to run a social club, so for now if you are interested in joining, go ahead and post here or whisper me in-game if you'd like to join or want more information!
