The current state of FFXI... are there better servers?

Yeah, let me outta here (Valefor). Asura seems like a much better fit, then. What's the procedure for world moving nowadays?

I would caution against moving to Asura. You may look at those numbers and go "ooh, asura has the most people, I should go there!"

The game was not designed for Asura's population, which has caused a number of issues, some even resulted in special fixes (i.e. to ambuscade and other layer areas) that no other server except possibly Odin would have needed. Botting and cheating is more rampant on Asura than any other, and lag in certain contents (though a problem everywhere) is likely worse.

There is more to the game than how fast AH sales occur. The more mid-popped servers are in a good spot and you can find people to do things with. More people is only good up to a point.

Dogpiling to one or two servers causes far more problems than it solves. I would agree with the notion that Bahamut is a good candidate.
