Returning to FFXI, looking for new server and endgame (sky) linkshell, suggestions?

Hi! After being away from game for a while, (started in 2004, left in 2007) I am considering returning, although I would like to try a different server than Quetzalcoatl.

A server with a fairly good economy, and a good population (don't like waiting for parties forever).

I would also be interested in an endgame linkshell that does an occasional NM or Sky run. My availability is Eastern Standard Time Mon-Fri 8:00pm >> and Sat-Sun all day (some exceptions apply sometimes due to work). I'm very punctual and can be on events on time if it's within my availability timeframe. Also, I'm always available in game regardless of what I am doing.

However, I'd like the linkshell to also understand that I only play and do things that bring me enjoyment out of the game, and sometimes I won't be up for that Sky or NM event. In such circumstances, I will inform the LS leader one day in advance that I won't make it to a certain event for X reasons. This, however, is very rare since well, endgame content allows me to do just the things I like doing, which are:

Kill, maim, chop, cut, wack, bash, anything that'll allow me to swing my Great Axe XD
Bash (shield kind) Flash (the spellkind), slice, stun, defend, block and anything involving my paladin class
Help lower level players with quests and whatnot XD
Overall just help with anything really O.o

Want to get my attention or help in less than 5 seconds? Just say: "Dalgon, we got something to **keyword** kill, wanna come?"

Three reasons why I join an endgame shell:

1- Make new friends and buddies XD
2- Kill bigger and meaner things :D (Or tank them as well)
3- The chance of equipment XD <- Last reason... means I'm not really greedy about it I usually end up just passing up things to LS members that can use it more than me XD

Character Job (Mains): Warrior/Sam, Warrior/Nin Pld/War
Current area access: Sky, Dynamis, working on CoP.

I put a great lot of effort into my character merits, and always keep my experience capped (In other words... I don't care if I die)

Current Merits: (They are higher but I don't remember XD Going off my info on FFXIAH.COM)

HP - 5/8
STR - 5/5
Great Axe - 8/8
Axe - 4/8 (capping sword for Paladin)
Critical Hit Rate - 4/4
Enemy Critical Hit Rate - 4/4
Berserk Recast - 5/5
Double Attack Rate - 5/5
Warrior's Charge - 5/5
Savagery - 5/5
Shield Bash Recast - 3/5
Sentinel Recast - 5/5
Chivalry - 5/5

There is more but I don't remember.

Equipment: Mostly AH geared (couple end-game pieces but like I mentioned earlier gear is my last concern so I usually just pass on things) Warrior is decently geared (Alkyoneus, Haubergeon +1, etc etc), As well as Paladin.

Long story short Any endgame linkshells willing to welcome this returning FFXI gamer? ^.^ (not on Quetzalcoatl? XD )
