If this statistic covered the mass transfers that happened between 3.1 and 3.3 I think our jaws would drop, I'm pretty sure Balmung and Gilgamesh populations doubled back then.

Sadly, Lucky Bancho wasn't doing statistics for ARR. What I do find interesting is the decline in numbers Gilgamesh has seen since Gordias while Balmung has barely budged. I suppose that makes sense though. Gordias destroyed the raid scene whereas roleplay has always been extremely popular.

It should also be noted (for those who can't be arsed to read the disclaimer) that these transfers are about characters, not actual players. Which would mean that if you move with 8 characters, those count as 8, rather than 1.

Insofar relevant as RPers in particular like to have multiple characters and the statistics are probably a little inflated as a result.
