Thinking of switching NA Severs

[RyuusukeTasogare]

I'm currently on Midgardsormr and haven't really been feeling it for a while now. I'd like to try a new sever but not sure which one to go with. I'm looking for something with a good pop that's overall friendly and has at least decent progression. It doesn't need to be hardcore but I'd like to find a group a people to raid with every now and again.

Any info or opinions of the other NA worlds would be appreciated.

I think my server (Cactuar) is known for being very friendly. I haven't gotten to much into the raid scene (with regards to savage content, though I do do EX primals occasionally), but there are always PFs up for statics looking for members, or people making PFs for weekly savage clears. I've been on Cactuar since I started playing the game, and I love it there. It's pretty decently populated, but not overcrowded (in my opinion), and you don't meet too many rude people on there (just the occasional one, but that's to be expected).

People will generally suggest their own server...

So yeah, come on over to Hyperion, the gem of Primal!

Well I'll decided at the end of the month but thanks for the input

To give you an idea of NA server size:

Balmung: 20k
Gilgamesh: 15k
Leviathan: 11k
Excalibur: 10k
Hyperion: 10k
Behemoth: 10k
Others: 9-7k
Coeurl: 6k
Goblin: 5k
Mateus: 4k
Zalera: 4k

According to Midas clears, these are the top 10 servers with raiding:

1. Gilgamesh (far above the others)
2. Behemoth
3. Leviathan
4. Sargantanas
5. Excalibur
6. Balmung
7. Exodus
8. Midgardsormr
9. Ultros
10. Cactuar

I have being in Gilgamesh, leviathan and just laterly (almost 2 months now) on sargatanas and I have seen this.
Gigamesh is great if you want to commit to the game. Make a mistake and you're fired. (see the boards, they are good at solo Rankin but not at party ones)
Leviathan is Great place, but... I didn't fit in the end. I don't know exactly what happened. May I was too busy on my own
Sargatanas is super friendly, people is more relaxed and more party friendly. They wait on new players, and tho I admit levathan and gilgamesh are more populated. Do you really need 15k payers running around to enjoy the game?

Where do I find this info at? I'm curious about where my server stands with the rest.

...

The main issue that I've noticed with most of the player-made census information is that its usually done around the time of the free log in period, so I wouldn't really count it as reliable.
