    Which servers are the biggest and busiest?

    I was just in the World Groups forum and noticed the disparity in the amount of posts for some of them (some as low as only ~60 posts). Just made me wonder what popular opinion was on the most flourishing servers.

    At east coast and west coast peak hours try to create a new character, the servers locked for new creations will be the busiest ones, repeat for several days to weed out potential spikes and only keep the really busy ones.

    Though out of all the busy servers I'd say stay away from Balmung if you ever hope to get a personal house

    I'd say this is your best bet. There's also this website that uses public data info to estimate server populations, which races are played most, etc. Can't say how accurate it is, but here it is! Boop. Happy server hunting! ^_^

    Any of the legacy servers are going to be the most populous ones, most likely. Hyperion, Excalibur and Balmung all seem pretty crowded.
