Please Unlock Balmung

[Bizzy]

Well since you unlocked Gilgamesh, why couldn't you unlock Balmung while you were at it? We need new people on Balmung, because it's starting to feel very stale and boring. Also, hard to recruit new members because there are no new people around to recruit. Come on SE, unlock Balmung. We been locked down for way to long. Stop holding Balmung hostage.

Stop being the most populated server.

They unlocked gilga bc it's dropped heavily in population. Leviathian is more populated now. Balmung on the other hand is still very populated.

Give us a better reason to leave.

Seriously if people were going to transfer, they already would have done it. Our only hope is people quitting to get it open again, and does Square want to lose subs?

We don't need to. If you enjoy Balmung and have reasons for staying, stay. Eventually people with less paitence will leave (be it through transfer or quitting) and you will reach parity with the other servers and be unlocked. And yes, your population is shrinking slowly...I doubt all those people quit.

"Slowly"

I know we ain't close to dead. I'd rather they get more people out anyways since if they just did it now we'd get locked in seconds. I add a lot of people to friend list, and yet only a few have left the server. I had an fc member ready to move, but didn't, simply because he realized it wouldn't be worth it now.

If players had a stronger reason to leave, we'd be fine. Gilg could escape because, although large, it wasn't Balmung large. Square wants over half of our pop to leave, and that's just not happening without some strong reason to.

Why do people from Balmung deserve some great transfer incentive? I left Balmung shortly after 4.0 launched. My boyfriend came with me and we joined up with people who were doing the same be it from Balmung or Gilga.

The idea you deserve something more than what is already being offered is just insane to me.

Does a thread like this come up every week now?

I may take a bit of flak from this but here it is. Fact is, as much as I want it unlocked. It's not happening, not for a while anyways. You said it yourself that we have an active population still and that's what SE is looking at. Someone else said it already that we'll need to wait for people to lose their patience and transfer. Problem is, as you've also said, people don't want to. So I don't see Balmung unlocking for a bit. And as a resident of the world... I really want it to but we gotta be realistic on this regard.

You are not getting bribed to leave your server. I will say again if you enjoy the server and have reasons for staying, stay. If you do not find the server appealing anymore, then leave. As long as people are still leaving, no matter how slowly, SE's plan is working.
