Balmung re-opened

[Nezerius]

Balmung has crashed Aether before with it's lopsided distribution.

Let's not forget about Gilgamesh, which was also a highly populated server before it's population died down after it had become a congested server. It was a combination of those two servers on the same datacenter that caused crashes.

It's possible it might not be open to alt creation and only be open to world transfer services. Gilgamesh is locked as well if you try to make alts at peak hours.

Yea, I dunno why people seem to suddenly be forgetting about the standard restriction on character creation. Even before Balmung became a congested server, it was often only possible to create characters in the few minutes after a maintenance had ended.
