Server Recommendations?

[3275Khaos]

Hi.
So I've been playing the free trial and that's going to come to an end soon. I definitely want to buy the game but I'm going to have to wait until Heavensward so I can play on my mac. I figured since there's going to be lots of time in between I should start looking at the forums more.
With all the introductory so that others can give this newb some advice over, I was wondering what server would be fun to play on? I don't think any of my IRL friends are playing or interested TT.TT.
One thing I'm curious about is, is there a server where there's less RMTers?
Another thing that's a bit off topic but still part of being a new player. Recruitment code?

EDIT:
I have really shitty internet. I'm guessing small server is better?

EDIT 2: (Same post, but in front)
Wow, it's been over 2 years since I did this post. I finally took a look at the forums again and decided to share my experience.
THE SERVER DOESN'T REALLY MATTER! WHAT MATTERS IS FINDING FRIENDS TO PLAY WITH!
Yeah, seems pretty obvious, but I think that's the most important thing when looking for a server.
After a couple of new characters and server transfers, I've found a place in Gilgamesh
It's two years later, but once again, thank you everyone who gave me suggestions.
