The greatest trick ever played was Balmung getting its infamous reputation on thanks to Mateus' players.

Balmung had its reputation before Mateus even had a population of note - which, of course, mostly came from Balmung in the great exodus. The two might as well be one.

Ah yes. The great Balmung exodus. That is a historical chapter in FFXIV's life span that many have forgotten about and most new players never heard of. Apart of me was wondering if this would happen again when they bring the new 4th NA data center in.

For those that don't know. The tl;dr summary of the great Balmung exodus was basically when half Balmungs role play community was fed up with the state of RP on the server that most decided to leave. They were upset at lack of housing for their RP venues. The sheer number of trolls in Ul Dah shout. Yhe login queues. And ofc, being lumped in by default with the ERP crowd. So a vast many of them had migrated to Mateus which was the lowest populated server at the time and was among the only few with open plots of land left untouched. At first all was great. The role players got homes on Mateus and started hosting events. Things seemed swell until their Qucksand turned identically and exactly into Balmung's. It was a spitting image. Coupled with the fact you couldn't make Alts on Balmung, everyone decided made them on Mateus instead so they could look for ERP. It didn't help that while disgusted with Balmung's culture, they hadn't realized how heavily engraved it was into their own behaviors. That quickly made things feel like one had never left Balmung. Within half a year, Mateus was a carbon copy of Balmung in every possible way. The role players having realized this had given up and returned back to Balmung where they at least had the friends they knew among other possible benefits such as cheaper markets or other things.

Question!: What's the cringy-est promo anyone one of yall have heard? Recently I heard, "come DJ *such-and-such* will MELT your SOUL." XD lmao, I was like, UH NO! Nope, why would the WoL do that after all that we've been through??? Haha, idk man, that's some new marketing for me, lol

I don't see anything wrong with it? Lmao, let people RP what they want.
It's not hurting anyone. If anything we do deserve a break from all these fetch quests from these NPC's
and saving the world for the 10000000th time and I don't even RP and I'm from Balmung.

Sound like (current) great California exodus, except the sentiment is probably ... opposite?
