Just wondering. Im going back to the game tomorrow after about a year break. I'm a former member of the Fenrir server, but it was a bit to empty for my liking. Im hoping to join one of the more popular servers. I like interacting with others. Thanks in advance. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-16-2008, 06:03 PM | #2 (permalink) | | Adorable Fuzzy Kitten Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 7,945 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 443 Thanked 1,575x in 994 Posts Gil: 2,686 Bank: 19,247 Total Gil: 21,933 Donate | Re: Which would you say is the most populated server? Odin is the most populated, but SE doesn't really want more people there. When are you logging in? What kind of numbers are, in your opinion, too few? Most servers aren't going to have a lot of lower leveled folks on them, though there are always people leveling new jobs. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-16-2008, 06:07 PM | #3 (permalink) | | Hungry Taru Join Date: May 2008 Posts: 5 Style: Light - Version 6 My Mood: Thanks: 0 Thanked 0x in 0 Posts Gil: 817 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 817 Donate | Re: Which would you say is the most populated server? As long as finding a party in the dunes is'nt an all day, pain-stakin process, I'll be just fine. Getting a dunes party in fenrir was hell, then you would lose your WHM, or tank or someone important after like 30 minutes.  | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-16-2008, 06:08 PM | #4 (permalink) | | Adorable Fuzzy Kitten Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 7,945 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 443 Thanked 1,575x in 994 Posts Gil: 2,686 Bank: 19,247 Total Gil: 21,933 Donate | Re: Which would you say is the most populated server?

I was thinking maybe they should merge the members from the 2 most unpopulated servers together. Then reset one of the 2. Making a new server would be a nice addition for the newcomers. Just my opinion. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-16-2008, 06:15 PM | #6 (permalink) | | King of the Oompa Loompas Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Nov 2005 Posts: 3,183 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 9 Thanked 102x in 83 Posts Gil: 17,079 Bank: 22,709 Total Gil: 39,788 Donate | Re: Which would you say is the most populated server? Search function is your friend! There was a similar thread to this one made a couple of days ago.
And Odin is the most populated server right now... SE is making attempts to migrate people to other servers, I'm sure. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 05-16-2008, 06:16 PM | #7 (permalink) | | Adorable Fuzzy Kitten Oracle of Knowledge Join Date: Jul 2005 Posts: 7,945 Style: Light - Version 6 Thanks: 443 Thanked 1,575x in 994 Posts Gil: 2,686 Bank: 19,247 Total Gil: 21,933 Donate | Re: Which would you say is the most populated server?

It's not really a feasible option, though. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | The following user says "Thank You" to Murphie for above post: | | | 05-16-2008, 06:26 PM | #8 (permalink) | | Friend or Foe?!

In some games, bare servers where everyone would start equal are a great chance for a new player to have a fair start. In FFXI, they'd make an absolutely horrible experience for at least the first few months; and there are so few new players that it would be a waste. If anything, it would hurt new players (on other servers) due to the lower amount of new players coming in to level with. | Originally Posted by someone who just spent ten minutes with feba | | wtf?

IMHO, the problem wouldn't be fixed by merging servers together. Plenty of players out there still have low level jobs that they want to get up higher for one reason or another. However, no one really wants to endure low level parties.
How often have you heard a friend of someone in your LS say the following:
"I can't wait to be out of the Dunes."
"I hate Qufim."
"Is there any way I can avoid Kazham?"
"Crap, I have to go back to the Citadel."
I get the feeling that most players few low level partying as one of the worst experiences to endure in this game, and that they would rather avoid it at all cost (choosing instead to get PL support to solo or small group their way to at least the mid 30s). Lyonheart
