Server mergers and points of interest?

I'm just curious if they have offered server merges or transfers off of your current server yet? As of right now my server(Fabul) seems really quiet and any time I log in I don't see many people wandering around, and I've never seen anyone using the party search / recruit function. Has anyone mentioned possibly transferring off into more populated servers, or merging two servers together?

Another question I have is, am I possibly hanging out in the wrong areas? I've been going back and forth between Gridania and Ul'dah and shouting asking for parties, asking for Linkshells and I haven't gotten any responses. First response I finally got was today after posting on these forums.... Is there a special city that is more populated than others, like Jueno from FFXI?

Thanks for the information if you have any to give!

all servers fairly empty, need to wait til changes take place and hopefully we see a rise in numbers, or PS3 release which is sure to bring with it a good number.

Since there are no payments being taken from the players we won't see this until much later unfortunately, you CAN roll as many characters as are available without paying for it too, so if you want roll another temporary character to check things out on another server, when payments do come you can then decide which character(s) to keep and pay for. It's a great opportunity to get a sense of some servers right now.

right now most of servers are dead.. i would also want server merge.

Ul'dah is the busiest city it would seem on any server and Gridania seems to always be a ghost town. Like others have said you can start a new character and pick a more populated server but that's about it at the minute. They won't do server merges as they will have to open them again come PS3 release but if that tanks then they might start think ing about it.

Figaro is actually pretty busy

I'm against server merge but sadly I also feel it's probably not a bad idea right now. =/ Some servers do feel pretty empty and one of the major things keeping me from logging in is not being able to hop into some form of "lfg" and find a party. I don't know if this is a population issue or a lfg tool issue, but I'm starting to think it's just a population issue.

Please, try to have a little foresight. Yes, many of the servers are currently underpopulated. However, if we merge now, when the PS3 version is released they will explode, even if the PS3 version doesn't sell 'well.' Let SE build up the game, release the PS3 version, and THEN if needed we can discuss server merges.

At the current time, however, the idea of a server merge is both shortsighted and counterproductive.
