First of all the bad news. As you have found out Balmung (as well as some other heavily populated servers) is completely locked for character creation as well as transfers to it until further notice.
We do not know how long Balmung will stay locked like this - could be just a month or two (until the initial expansion-rush has died down), or it could be much much longer.
There are discussions going on here about deciding on some alternate RP server, but no final decision has been made yet.
If you are interested in ERP then Balmung would have been the right place to be....
Just walk in to the Quicksand in Ul'dah and start checking people's search info. If it takes you more than a minute or two to find someone who mentions E/M/RP you are doing something wrong.
