    Official policy is to open servers as their active playerbases allow. If balmung ever falls below whatever active player threshold SE has set, it'll open again. Before the recent opening however, it had been closed for a very long time so you may want to look at joining one of the other "rp" servers.

    Are there even other RP servers anymore? I heard Mateus kind of dropped it's RP status when Balmung reopened on account that a fraction of the RP community went back to Balmung.

    Wouldn't really know. The rp community to me is a very odd animal. Not that I disapprove of RP-ing. I used to do it in other games, but the FFXIV RP people are on a whole other level. I have heard that many other servers have active RP communities though, and I doubt the short time balmung was open has consolidated them all back to one server.

    Balmung will likely reopen whenever people start tapering off again. Im fairly certain rmt bots are a good portion of the people that joined us when it last reopened, so once they start getting banned we'll start deflating little by little. In the meantime, Mateus is probably your best bet. There is a small vocal group that dislikes rpers, but despite that there is still a decent sized rp community there.

    This is the main offsite xiv rp hub and this is a tumblr that acts as a calander for Mateus RP events. Roll an alt and see if you click? :)

    I am not really familiar with Mateus, but I really doubt all of the RPers moved away from Mateus to Balmung. Some did no doubt, but probably not all that many.
    If you play during EU hours there is also Omega which has an active RP community. Smaller than Balmung to be sure, but that just means you have a chance to get a house
