    When 290 of those 300 people aren't possibly going to be interacting with you at any given time, does it really matter?

    I don't need the background noise, or the world to "breathe.". Even with those "pitiful" numbers (which are higher on the weekend/prime times), as long as I can do what I want to do in the game, not much else matters. I come back to this game primarily for the greater depth in gameplay that it has compared to modern MMOs today, and also to reconnect with old friends who still play. Since the server is still meeting my needs, and has less lag and other issues than a bigger server, I have no reason to change.

    Crowds of people making "Noise" is an extra, not an essential component of the experience. It's nice, but don't you dare assume that we are having a terrible time on our "ghost town" server just because it doesn't have thousands of concurrent users.

    OK and that is your opinion, obviously others feel differently and that is why they are all moving to populated servers. It's silly to tell people to go to dead servers... I just can't fathom how that is at all beneficial for the person.

    Yes, it is my opinion. And it is no less valid than yours. It's not silly to tell people to go to ANY server, regardless of your opinion of it's state. It might be "dead" to you, but it isn't dead to me. And it will be less dead if new players join it. Like, where did your sense of logic go? Do you know how servers become less "dead"? By people joining them.

    Asura has too many players. Other servers can benefit from those new players to be less "dead." Not that I agree with the use of that term in the first place. Asura needs new players like I need a hole in the head. Stop pushing people there when every other server in the game would benefit more from their presence. People on Asura are already complaining about high lag in various contents. Do you want it to get worse? You need to understand: The reason the game has multiple seperate servers is because one server cluster can not handle all of the people that want to play. It would be great if we didn't need seperate servers at all, but we do. So the right thing to do is make sure that everyone is able to have the same experience on any of them, by balancing the populations, not cramming one server to [Point at which it explodes] - 1.

    I mean, even on Asura you're not going to see that. It's still by and large veterans, even with the people that move or start over there.

    This is a nearly 20 year old game, you're never going to see the main cities full of new players, that's an experience that simply can't be replicated.

    The linkshell concierges were changed, and they are now found near one of the mog house entrances in each of the three main cities:

    People can lie to other people who like to try Asura. Japanese players? Out of the way.

    Here's my truth. I was on Bahamut many years ago. A lot of them were Japanese yeah and they loved to hang out with me back that time but are they still the same players as years ago? No. It was pretty difficult to form a party there (2015?).

    They changed. Are the 16 servers still too much for the entire English community? Imagine it.

    Can I transfer my character anytime from Bahamuth to Asura using the World Transfer Service? Do I need a World Pass Code for this?

    I can do just about anything when I want to aside from dyna D on Shiva no problem. Dynamis I have to plan ahead for but people do it. It really isn't hard to get stuff done, you just have to ask.
