Yep, the 1.0 servers were indeed merged before they were shut down. My server was originally Lindblum, but it got "poured" into Sargatanas, as I like to phrase it.

yeah just wiki'd it after i posted, out of curiosity, Fabul and Besaid where threw into a blender and Blamung was the result.

As a proposed solution, maybe they should put a cap on the queue for a given server -- like 100 people can be in the queue and if you're over that number, it should kick you back to "Play" screen and make you wait 60 seconds if trying to reconnect to that server.

Are they really? Oh great. And agreed. A. The larger servers are already screwed right now and likely will be for weeks. That is not going to help and frankly if it keeps up I'm not really sure why I should be paying full subs for a game I can only half access and which they are letting others play for free. B. Why now? As has been said, at least wait until the hype dies down if you don't intend to make any effort to fix the existing problems.

Besaid was the original 'unofficial' RP server before it became Balmung, so RPers didn't 'invade' anything. They pretty much were clear in their intent where they wanted to go from the start, and people just congrigated there normally. SE's been lax in declaring an official RP server so the RPers were quick in making their own choices.

been stuck on 85 in queue for over an hour now

Actually, why not just officially split Balmung into 2 servers? Mark one as an official RP server and the other as a normal non-RP server, and require every player on there to pick between the two. Preserve any existing housing the person owns and money and all that regardless of choice, then move one of those servers to Primal.
