I dont know which server to play (need some help)

Hi,

Currently i'm on Balmung but i dont know if its the right choice for me
What i would like from a server is this:

Lots of people to play with,
I'm from EU so my timezone is GMT+1
LGBT Community would be fun :)

==

I know Ragnarok is the EU server but when i logged on and went to talk to some people they said that Balmung would be a better choice since i'm playing alone and the server (Ragnarok) is kind of a ghost.
But my concern is, wouldnt the other servers also be a ghost? since im on the GMT+1 timezone. (they where from the US)
I just want to play with allot of nice English speaking members

Thank you for taking the time to read this

--- I think i posted this in the wrong forum i guess i might repost this on the new player section
Sorry

it really doesn't matter too much? i'm sure someone here can recommend a server to you but when 1.0 shuts down i think were all getting sent to new servers in 2.0 and reshuffling, if anyone knows if this is wrong please correct me so i can pass it on to others =s

yes you are wrong.

Ragnarok is no ghost server! :eek:
The population is obviously lower than on other servers but you won't notice that because during European main playing time (evening) there are A LOT of players online, doing all kinds of stuff and a whole lot is going on :)
Most people on Ragnarok speak English but - like on any other server - there will be some players who are bad at it or don't speak it at all.

If you are only able to play in the morning or really late at night (like 3 or 4 am) a different server might be better for you though because not much is happening on Ragnarok during that time.

Will be mostly during the day, evening
I guess Ragnarok might be the best expierence then. (still doubting though when i see that 1 chocobo xD)

Thanks :)

I know a fair few LGBT guys on Sarganatas, me included. Iv'e heard Sarganatus is one of the more populated servers, not sure where that came from though.

Same goes for Hyperion server.....

Thats good to hear, how is Sarganatas on EU times?

BALMUNG BABY!

Why would you want to leave?

I'd say Sarganatas or Gungnir if you want a LGBT crowd.

Isnt there an ls specifically devoted to lgbt on Gungnir? Or is it no longer around. Either way, Gungnir is where the cool people are at.

I'm just seeing what server would be best, since i'm EU and most US go to bed when i wake up
Dont wanna end up playing in a server that feels a little dry because most ppl are asleep :)
Whenever i choose a server i usually go for the most populated ones, so thats why i'm looking around.

I remember on FFXI the people in my LS where so nice but they all where off when i was on :/ most of the time
I want to prevent that

In my experience there are plenty of EU people on Balmung aswell. Me, for example. ;D

It seems to be split between Balmung and Ragnarok (and a fair bit of EU people on Ragnarok used to be on Balmung before the server split). If you are an EUer (and play in evenings) then Balmung would be a safe choice.

It also has a vibrant JP and NA community.
It also is home to the RPers.

If you want to do some real reserach some options are:
-- Check each world forums, and see what kind of responses you get.
-- Create a character on the worlds and see what it is like.

Of course, this may alllllll change in a couple of months when we are all reborn.

honestly gungnir I haven't seen a LGBT Ls perse but I know there are a lot of us here who just really could care less what your preference is and will accept you for who you are and not how you live. The choice is yours though and good luck in the hunt for a new server ^_^

There are many EU player in Balmung (like me) and have a decent population if you play on afternoons. There are too much non-english speakers (JP) but translation system always help.

I should probably look for a server as well that is West Coast time or something.

There is one on Gungnir to my knowledge, but they are a little low key. I'll see if I can dig up their info.

Got it:

Yes there's is in fact a LGBT LS on Gungnir. Lux Nocturna we've been here since launch lol.
Tenth largest LS on Gungnir according to XIVpads http://xivpads.com/?-Linkshells&o=To...server=Gungnir

Hi, I'm kind of interested, I'm trying to look up information about the linkshell and whatnot, but right now I'm on a different server and will move servers if they allow us to move when 2.0, so I want to find out more please, and thank you.

Alright well, I've narrowed it down to 3 worlds

Sargatanas, Gungnir, Ragnarok

I've made a post on Gungnir and Sargatanas about how it is playing in those worlds if your from EU
Its hard to choose xD it seems Gungnir is gaining the upper hand with the LGBT crowd
But Sargatanas seems very populated (xivpad says 366 LS in total)
pff I wanna get this over with and play already -_-

@Rahsch and @SolBossanova
Just go our web site http://www.lux-nocturna.org Hit the Join Lux Button.
That will get you into the recruit section of our forums. Everybody will answer any questions you may have about our Linkshell. We are a fun bunch of people. we are straight friendly also. I'm straight myself and I can say this shell has been
the best social experience I've been in since FFXIV launched. We run a lot of different events. For the most part we don't
take our self's too seriously. I'm a casual player, mostly because I was too hardcore in XI and caused problems with my
life. the more hardcore players of the shell have always been helpful and are more then willing to included myself in events
and get me up to speed on mechanic of certain content.
