Please Close Balmung again.

[Enla]

but i have the money if i want do it i would lol

You aren't everyone. I know of no one who would put that amount of money down on something so time consuming that isn't even guaranteed to work. Hell most people I know and interact with side eye the cost of /fantasia/ which is a flat $10.

for love of god close it again keep it close you know that ppl that are in other servers can move theres with good gil buy anything they want then take the items back to ther server sell it for more it bad keep Balmung close that why the market board are booming lol

Given how low the gil caps are on transfers, you essentially have to exchange not-balmung-gil for balmung-gil by buying and reselling items. This will take their inflated value of not-balmung-gil and reduce it down to its equivalent purchasing power in balmung-gil. Additionally, as a seller, even if someone actually did what you suggested for some ridiculous reason, I'd be all for it. After all, it expands the market I can sell to, increasing demand and raising prices. The only people who would be hurt by something like that are people on Balmung who barely interact with the player economy to begin with and only buy things when they do, but their game poverty is a consequence of their decisions anyway, so there's no reason to care about their inability to afford items. They aren't entitled to said items simply because they want them.

Having given some thought to moving to Balmung lately (decided against it due to the gil transfer cap and the state of housing on that server) I looked into the prices of items and the general value of gil on Balmung vs Midgardsormr. At least in my case Balmung gil has roughly 2x the purchasing power of Midgard's. I think you can get back for free if Balmung is still classified as congested and you move to a new/preferred world but I don't know if the 90 day transfer restriction would still apply. Long story short, it's not worth the hassle because of the price to move in the first place, the chance of being stuck for 90 days and then no guarantee that the items you're loading up on will even be worth the gil you expected them to be when you get back.

Keep it open, lmao. People in novice network and shout chat were saying yesterday it felt good to see new characters run around and that the marketboard was moving at lower levels.

Balmung can have all the players it wants. On the condition those asking dont come here and cry about being stuck in a 4 hour que during the relase of the next expansion.

Actually, please make Balmung a preferred server so I can giggle over threads like these. I look forward to this thread's sequel: "non-rp names are ruining our server."

I've never once seen an RPer make such a complaint in this game, likely because there are no official RP servers and thus no expectation of rule-based RP support.

I've enjoyed seeing all of the new players flooding into our server. It's a great change of pace and I feel like we can all breathe again. Lol.

On the other hand, I haven't received any RMT whispers for a long, long time... currently, I've just noticed bots either appearing/disappearing in hoards at the aetheryte crystals in Limsa/Ul'dah/Gridania, or some slight /say and /shout RMT spam. From there, I just tend to report the infraction and move on.

Keep looking, you'll find them.

Well...

If everyone logs off when they're done playing there won't be a problem.
