I mentioned it pages ago: Aethers "empty" servers aren't empty anymore. Balmung is large enough to be split into two smaller servers, but the other servers are too large to be combined- So yes, combining two servers for Balmung's sake would be grossly unfair for whoever is on the merging end. Balmung's problem is Balmung's problem, and this is coming from someone on Balmung.
