So many friendly people here...too bad that they are all on different servers. I'm starting to regret being on Lamia now lol. I would xfer in a heartbeat if it wasn't for my FC.
balmung is taking over!
meanwhile in Exodus.....*crickets*
Server: Cactuar
Willing to transfer? Probably not
Personal Interests: Movies, video games, music
Play schedule: Around 5:30pm-11pm ET.*
What kind of gamer are you: Casual
Character Gender: male (and irl)
Do you care if the player in real life is not the same gender as their character? Yes
Character Race: Roegadyn
Preferred Race: it doesn't really matter :P
Main class?: BLM/DRK
Dislikes: Rude people/snobs
Goals for the game: Level most jobs, clear almost everything. Collect mounts
Goals for the marriage union: Help each other. Have a friend to do things. I want the chocobo too ><
Etc: I just re-subscribed since 2013 and even then I only played for about 2 months so I am getting reacquainted.
here! I see many balmung adds coming out, which is a great thing! One would hope many would come out for there native server. So get to /tell 'ing :D
But you have to keep in mind that some of those ppl don't want to EB, other group already EB someone before this thread or found someone from the thread, I think 1 transfered to Odin. Another thing to add is that I spoke with some of them to check if they really want to EB and in the beginning sounds like they did and had many suitors, but ended up not EBing anyone. I'm the beginning it was ppl from other servers making friends to EB
Those DPS need to start killing the adds...
Anyhow, speaking of server transfers, how's the activity and community on Balmung? I've had mixed experience with Odin where some days are pretty active with people shouting everywhere, and other days it just feels dead.
I have heard quite a few things about it (and not just the congestion lol), so I was interested in looking around there. Of course it's not easy to get there outside of a transfer, so I'd like to hear some opinions before throwing my money to SE.
My POV:
Balmung is pretty busy during the afternoon to evening ( around 1 pm til 10 -11 pm PST). You see a lot of players there on the new maps and in PF from 7 to 32 ads/parties looking for people ( it ll increase and decrease according tho the numbers I gave)
Now if you want to know how easy is to make friends. That will depend in your social skills and other people. Somepeople don't really communicate that much thru LS/FC chat but prefer PMS (tells) and others prefer vice versa. There are ppl shouting when there are bosses S/A/B ranks and you can ask for hunt LS which ll always be telling you where the bosses are spawing.
During the morning it is very quiet. The queues in DF are slow compared to that time I gave in the beginning. I can't tell you how good it is after 11 pm cuz I am usually offline watching movies lol.
I just checked the link.....grand total of 3 people from Siren.
/joy
Then u should try to contact them during those hours.

oh that is awesome. Show us the EB ceremony piccies if everything end up a success
Ninja-ing to share two cents. Don't believe the info the forums gives you. I transfered..two weeks ago? Very recently.
I think what Dekal said is spot on, but I also want to point out it might depend on where you're coming from too. I started on Zalera, which was a mixed bag (like most servers). There were some incredibly kind people there. But being a low pop server meant very rampant RMT. Plus the RP community, while it existed, was segregated into only small groups that kept super private. Not saying Balmung doesn't also have that, but I could tell within the first few hours after transfer that Balmung was just more...chill.
Zalera was like the wild west: you had good mature people willing to help with content. But there's also a greater disparity in those who will commit to the game and those who will easily ditch. Even at full capacity it felt very dead because no one really enjoyed hanging out in any of the towns. Well, Mor Dhona and now probably Ishgard has more people. But no one flat out talks to each other except shout chat...which...got interesting XD
Balmung feels more like a stable town where an "event" can be organized almost spontaneously. That and zero RMT or as close to zero as you can get. I was so shocked to see Ul'dah's market street utterly packed with people talking and crafting because on Zalera you'd see maybe...5 at peak time and then two bots that would rotate. Balmung just feels more comfortable in not constantly chasing the next carrot. There's people that enjoy the downtime. At least that's how it feels to me.
So really I would closely examine as to why your server feels off for you before you transfer. If anything people say about Balmung sounds extremely different to what you experience at home, then perhaps a transfer is in order. But if the good things don't sound so different, then perhaps it's more who you're playing with than the server itself.
I know almost to 1% what RP experience is. The only time I "interact" with rp people is when I am reading their plot. I tend to stay away from them when they get all crazy or have some weird plot. My experience is about a person that 60% solo in game and 30% spend time with friends/static group, and 10% just chill out/goofing around/just talking and doing nothing in game but just communicating with ppl I know.
I don't mins rp, but I just like to read cuz it is like reading a book. I am not the only one cuz there are ppl that just don't rp at all pretty much like me or they do rp, but they don't do it with me ( yes I know balmung is known cuz of its RP community). In my case I get no RMT, but I used to get 2 to 5 RMT every other week.
I think that's more what I was trying to get at: Balmung is just overall more accepting of different play styles. In Zalera you got shouted at if you tried to advertise an RP anything. But in Balmung you don't have to rp at all: there's still quite a healthy mix of casual, endgame, whatever FCs and groups all about. The fact that I can just walk into any of the towns and potentially just goof and chill with FC mates or someone brand new is nice. That's not unique to Balmung, but it's easier to find compared to some servers :D But if your sever already has that mix, then a transfer to Balmung may not be necessary.
I think the main problem with the person asking about balmung community is mostly the activity of our community. They said that their server got days that feel as dead servers I can only assume that it is because the server has low population. They got a huge amount of RMT acc actives which make it a bad place to stick around.
As I said in the morning is very quiet (with some exceptions. Sometimes they can be active), but overall the server is active cuz it has actual players playing. I think there is more since the server is closed 24/7 and the only player that actually get in are people from other server looking for players to play with. I must say that there are other servers that probably has a similar activity. I know Gilgamesh has a active community, but I was there for awhile and u do get RMT or bit more compared to balmung.
Please remove me from the list for now. My friend just joined the game so I might marry him if he keeps playing. Thank you :)
I'm desperate and lonely enough to give this a go for a while:
Server: Hyperion
Willing to transfer? Maybe, I'd have to be sure it was worth it before committing. I have a special reason for being on this server.
Personal Interests: Anime (and Anime Conventions), Manga, Video Games, Cats, Memes, Cartoons.. The usual.
Play schedule: Whenever my work schedule allows. Usually later at night (central time). Sundays are a no go because I have church in the morning and I usually work at night.
What kind of gamer are you: Depends. Alone I'm usually super casual unless I catch a bug to grind out better gear. With other people I can be persuaded to be hardcore.
Character Gender: Both Nan and myself are women.
Preferred Gender: If this lead to an EB Nan's partner would have to be male.
Do you care if the player in real life is not the same gender as their character? Eeeeh.. I don't typically get along with women but who knows?
Character Race: Lalafell
Preferred Race: Lalafell, but I'm not racist.
Main class?: Since I find bard the easiest to play solo I'm a bard. Someday I want to learn another job but I don't have the confidence to learn by myself.
Dislikes: Profuse swearing, overly sexual talk, drunks (..Probably the reason I'm alone tbh)
Goals for the game: Depends on who I'm with. My goal is to have fun. I like being leveled and geared to run stuff and I love farming and doing content but I also love just hanging around and doing nothing. When I'm alone I'm usually doing the latter.
Goals for the marriage union: If I was so lucky to someday find an EB partner I'd not only be in it for friendship but for the items (I am a clothershorse and hoarder). Be aware: if Nan gets married she's going Platinum.
Etc: I'm (depressingly) close to 30 though I don't act it at all. I'm very shy at first but soon my true evil nature shows. I LOVE Aldgoats. 90% of the time I'm in it for the loot though on occasion I do like helping people (as I myself need help.. A lot.. ; ; ). I'm easily frustrated with people who just can't get a fight right but I'm gonna be the last person to call you out on it (I've probably frustrated quite a few people myself). I've been here since 1.0 and while I may take extended breaks I don't ever see myself quitting the game so if I disappear for a while you know I'll always be back. If you wanna know a tiny bit more about Nan you can check out my tumblr (strictly XIV, none of that SJW crap)- LittleRedLalafell. Google it.
Exodus is very active and populated server. Thus the reason why I will not transfer. Bumpity bump!
Server: Balmung
Willing to transfer? No, my raid group is here.
Personal Interests: Video Games, Animals, etc.. I'll go into more detail if we get to talking.
Play schedule: I can be on after 5PM EST Monday - Friday and anytime after 10:30-11:00 AM during Weekends (Sat-Sun)
What kind of gamer are you: There's a time for super serious, and there's a time for relaxing and taking it easy.
Character Gender: Female (I am male behind the keyboard)
Do you care if the player in real life is not the same gender as their character? No.
Character Race: AuRa
Preferred Race: Anything but Roe , Sorry Roes :(
Main class?: Astrologian
Dislikes: Arrogance, social awkwardness, self-centeredness.
Goals for the game: Just fun, I come here to unwind after work.
Goals for the marriage union: Playing together, hanging out, role-playing
Etc:Just sort of looking for someone to spend time with in-game when I'm not doing real serious stuff in the AM on weekends
The list has been updated just forgot to have the link on this post ( I'm using my phone)

Character Race: Elezen :3
Preferred Race: open :)
Main class?: I kinda have three mains, MNK/WHM/WAR. Seeing as expansion is in full swing, I may replace my tank/healer.
Dislikes: This is a game for enjoyment, lets treat it as such. I dislike when people take this too seriously.
Goals for the game: I like to complete as much as possible. As well as raid.
Goals for the marriage union: Of course items but having someone else to play with is always a plus. EB is nice Idea and im all for it! But please don't make this out to be some crazy commitment, its a fun addition :3

A little late reply, but thanks for the info Dekal and DreadRabbit. You both raised some points I haven't thought about, like examining why my server feels off. I suppose I'll have to look into those things a bit more before making a decision.
Shepard don't forget to record ur ceremony. I really like ME trilogy and to have ur character here that looks very similar to Shepard in ME is so cool. It is like Shepard transcend xD and traveled to another game. Let me know when u ll get ur EB ceremony. Hopefully I will be able to be there.
Ummm, so yea, this feels weird but why not I guess
