HI!

Wow, most server forums are incredibly inactive. I had trouble finding even one with a post from this month. That's a little discouraging lol

A Google search for ff14 rp servers will give you some guidance.

[TheArchivis95]

All I can really find from that is that there was an RP server as of about a year ago, but it's since been locked indefinitely. Which sucks. Can't figure out if people started RPing somewhere else though.

My thoughts for you at the moment is not to worry too much about finding a specific rp server but just pick a server and jump straight into the game. There's so much to do and such a massive journey to undertake that you will most definitely find like minded individuals along the way.

I found my current Free Company in the forums and they're a very active bunch, but that's EU. There's a few active Free Company threads so it sucks the NA forums are quiet!

I feel like the forums have to be a little misleading as to activity levels in the game. There are few threads from within a week. I just don't want to get stuck on a dead server, and it's hard to gauge how large a population is.

While Balmung was the default RP server it's now locked. Mateus is where most RP'ers go these days. Other more populated NA worlds are Gilgamesh, Excalibur, Behemoth, Leviathan, Hyperion.

I think I'm gonna start on Jenova and hope I find some RP there. I can level up faster and transfer to Mateus if I really can't find any friends. I doubt it'll come to that though.

As has been mentioned traditionally Balmung is the RP server for the game, but that resulted in it's population exploding (to the point it is now the most populated server in the game, at the very least the most populated NA server). Although from I understand Balmung was only locked to new characters, that it would still allow transfers there as long as the current amount of logins was low, comparatively speaking.

I think lots of players just don't use the forums (either they don't know it's there or forgot about it completely). I play several hours almost daily but only check the forums once every few months.

I'm on Mateus, and there are almost-a-ton of FCs with "##-RP" as their 'tag'. So I'd say if things don't work out on your server of choice, move on over to Mat. for rp good-times.
