    It also seems to have much better opportunities (in both volume and quality) for pick up grouping than other servers as well (possibly a combination of the population and FFXI mentality).

    When you create a new character it does list Selbina as the most populated server, or so it did several days ago.

    I was being serious also, it really does list Selbina as the most populated and Besaid is one of the top one's as well. I would highly and I mean HIGHLY suggest you stay away from the servers with only 1 chocobo. The 2 I tried was so dead that (like mentioned before) it was more or less like playing a single player open world rpg. I do see a ton of people on selbina but I don't see much general chat or public chat socializing much. Then again I have only been on it for a few days.

    As for Besaid, I have heard from more than one person it is the unofficial RPG server and that people really get into the RPG roles and do a lot of role playing events.

    I will personally give Selbina a longer try and seek out a social LS. This game is not FFXI nor is the whole social environment from what I can gather so far. I am sure that will change especially once 2.0 launches and def once the ps3 version comes out.

    To Answa: Thank you for the info

    Yeah 99% of all socialization happens in linkshells or parties which can be really deceiving to a new player.

    Marta you're not kidding. It really is VERY deceiving and can potentially scare off any new player's that is to lazy to ask on the forums or even give it a try. I am a very social person so I have never been to afraid to ask. Back when I was a kid and being raised I was always told" The only dumb questions is the questions you don't ask "...
