With regards to Goblin: We're not big. We never have been. That's kind of a good thing because we have that small town community feel. However, many of us have found our social veins within the small community and because they're such a precious commodity, we don't really stray beyond it. The raiders know each other and generally seek each other out for things, gatherers for gatherers, crafters for crafters, even the few who enjoy PvP. This does effectively hit the PF hard, especially given that anyone you may not know may not be as capable as you'd need/expect. That's not an insult to anyone on Goblin, but that serves to say that everyone knows somebody who knows somebody, and when it comes to grouping up for content, we don't much stray outside of established social circles (FCs, linkshells, friends of friends, etc.)

I would like to lay to rest the idea that we're a dying server. We're not. We may not be as big or as busy, but we're far from dying.

While most of the server is still alive its raid community is dying and it has been bleeding raiders which int the end will result in more and more players leaving the server.

I like this comment.

Goblin isn't dying, jesus. There are plenty of people online to do stuff with you just put up a PF.

Paws Kitti! I see you all the time in limsa. Next time, I'll send a friend request. I honestly love goblin as is. But I mostly just run content with my FC as we're a fairly close knit group. As ThirdChild said though, it's a small town community feel. I don't bother with PF very often (unless for a random large fate like odin or an S rank hunt) and usually run with my friends. Feel free to reach out as well if you see me on. I'm not through all of HW content yet though as a heads up.But a few of my FC mates are.

Ashkendor's post said "dying" too many times. Game is dying, might as well leave.

My server is dying and it is so sad.. I have so many friends on here leaving one by one and it makes me want too aswell but 1. Its become my home and 2. I have no money to do so Im on goblin, who else is? Would SE ever merge serves if two start to die?? They cant just let it die all together..

I didn't know the Goblin server was losing players, though I do vaguely remember people mentioning the Goblin server for something. If any consolation, most of the a@#holes will want to leave as there would be no people to start bs with XD jokes aside I'm really srry to hear that. Only advice I could give you is to wait for the Ps3 support to drop in which I predict server transfers would be getting another free transport week or something.

Thats a good point. You may be small in number compared to Behemoth which is just frothing at the mouth with players, theres still a good number of people there, though i could guess at sometime in the future if the server remains too small or dwindle further it might just merge at some point, it'd probably be a waste of storage space or w/e SE calls it. :/

As for the previous comments....Yes, people are a$#holes on these forums, just about every first response to anything sad sounding or eyebrow raising is greeted with some dips%#$ saying a smart remark for a quick "like" or cause bs drama. Oh, and no, its not your fault OP that you defended yourself. In fact these senseless morons need to SHUT THE F$#% UP because they're not even on your server to be saying s%#$ or even care for your predicament. Not to mention moneybags here who is on your server, but even if there's more people stating how the Goblin server is dying:

I'm also on Goblin and I strongly disagree that it's dying, as I said in the other thread. I have no trouble finding groups for hunts or diadem or any other current content, nor does the economy seem stagnant as I can still make good money crafting and find just about anything I need to buy on the market boards.

who doesn't have a sensitive bone in his body to see a player calling out the state of her server, but won't mind saying how much of a profit he's making, "If it helps me, It ain't broken" mentality. And those who say "people are just giving straight answers and telling you how it is", well if being a d%#$ by telling someone to not post certain threads, tell the OP to move to another similar previous thread (when your not a damn moderator), and simply being rude just to be that way. (referring to:

Ironically... Everytime I visit the forum, you have 1-3 threads on front page...

)

Now there's a clear boundary to a reasonable response, and being an a@#hole, and you crossed it, along with a few others in these threads. Who cares if she posts 3 threads, that means she has more important things to say other than your nosy self now doesn't it? Like the OP said, if you don't like the thread, don't join it, and that was in defense which was necessary. Know-it-all wannabes who don't know how to talk to people, trolls, selfish naysayers who deny anything that won't benefit them, the list goes on etc. If your popping on these forums this is what your gonna find for the most part if a topic is about how bad something is, as if XIV is some utopia, because its far from it with its growing number of p#$$%s in this game.

Also not mentioning Diadem, as we all know how that went....nah gonna say it anyway, It flopped on itself and the players are introduced first hand to their a#$hole mentality, while some player go to gather and do other things other than grinding in the same spot for an hour 1/2 and the grinders will complain and moan about the crap they've started on themselves, non-respective of others intentions, the clear use of a df (which is to activate and queue for an instance for your own agenda) and pf (which to form a party for specific reasons).

Long story short, they're full of themselves. Goodluck to you Paws. (love your name btw X3)

It's clear I've offended you, I apologize. I should try to soften my comments a bit, but I usually try to keep things simple and to the point. Since tone is hard to convey in text, I know that simple and to the point can sometimes come off as curt and jerky instead, but that's not my intention.
I mentioned both battle content and the economy, not because I'm trying to brag about money, but because a failing economy or extreme difficulty finding other players is usually a sign of a server's collapse. I shared my personal experience, because I'm on the server being discussed and that personal experience is telling me that the server is healthy. This is a discussion forum and in this case, my contribution to the discussion is disagreement.

How do you even like it's input? All I read from its post was @#!$@! did you see something I didn't?
