Question about Balmung.

[Settiesama]

So I'm mostly in this thread to express my disbelief about people saying RPers are the "minority." I mean they're not over 50% of the population(what demographic is) but they're by no means a small group.

I run into them all the time, sometimes even in old leveling zones. They're by no means some small niche group that you'd have to hunt for to even realize they exist.

They're either a majority or a minority. Since you admitted under 50%, they're a minority. Minority does not mean a small group, it means less than what the majority is. The majority is non-RPers, therefore RPers are the minority.

I'd be interested to know if there are more RPers than raiders

I only made it to page 6 before I got tired of this guys whining and refusal to understand what's going on.

I dont really care I want something done. I understand that their can be improvements but most people here clearly dont they defend SE like their lives depend on it.

They don't really care either - and neither do we.
You're locked out. Tough tatas.
Should have been on Balmung earlier. Have your friends make an alt to play with you.
If they're not interested in doing that even for an hour a day, I got news for you.

And it's sadder than Balmung being locked.

SE is a company and not worth defending. They're gonna do what's profitable and feasible. Asking them to consider your special status as such an "important" server is laughable though. Your server is no more worthy of special attention than anyone elses.

By the by, your posts are boiling down more and more into stamping your feet and demanding irrational things like a petulant child.

Because I want to see improvements on a game I enjoy? Knowing full well the company can do that and i'm stomping my feet? The more and more I read the more the more I realize just how silly some people are on these forums and they arent worth defending yet every single post on the forms that ask SE something that isn't generally accepted or wanted leads to the white knights of the forums. Please dont give me that bs if you are going to provide nothing useful in terms of the actual question I ask you leave and everyone else leave respectfully.

You're not asking for improvements to the game though. You're asking for them to upgrade ONE server out of tens because YOU cannot get in. You are asking for something that benefits ONE group. Yes, it's a large group. Yes it's been a "problem" for a long time, however the solution has already been implemented. You like your community? Cool, stay there. Every other server has room though and the people who control the money have no reason to drop money and invest it in one server when they can continue to pull in NEW users who pay money on other servers and not destabilize the datacenter.

That bold part right there is the problem. It's why we can't have an actual discussion. You won't believe any answer we give you because it's not the one you're looking for. You want something done and by something you want Balmung unlocked. That is the ONLY solution you will take and everyone else can suffer the consequences as long as you personally are satisfied. Everything else is just blindly defending SE to you.

I understand that their can be improvements but most people here clearly dont they defend SE like their lives depend on it.

We are not yet living in a world where servers have infinite data capacity so what is your suggestion for improvement? A bigger server will still have a cap and it will still be reached. Merging smaller servers...okay that's not going to give Balmung more space. It's only going to peeve off a bunch of people when suddenly they forcibly lose their homes. If your friends don't want to lose theirs, why should we lose ours? Do you have any actual suggestions that don't negatively impact people not on Balmung that go beyond just adding more space?

I am more than willing to listen to any actual suggestion for server improvement, especially if it helps with connection issues. I am not, however, willing to listen to ideas that benefit Balmung at the expense of servers like Goblin, Mateus, or Coeurl. Balmung isn't more special than any of those servers, just more destructive. Even Greg didn't take down the whole datacenter when it crashed...only Balmung holds that honor. If that doesn't tell you how badly it needed a population downsizing I'm not sure what I can say to you that isn't going to bounce off your armor of denial.
