Okay, kiddies, absolutely NO starting the Balmung v. Gilgamesh fights again!
The reddit poll I believe includes many non-RPers and the communities of reddit and 4chan (and blue gartr?) have decided to make their home on Glgamesh. It is a fact, inarguable, that the majority of THIS particular website, RPers all, are going to Balmung. Many wonderful RPers are going to Gilgamesh, too, though. I tend to doubt which server you go to will make a huge difference. You're bound to make good friends and have plenty of RP on both. Just browsing the forum and seeing all the activity from both servers should be a testament to that :).
As for linkshells, there is a little write up about them here, but for the most part it's up to you to scroll through the linkshell hall and find one you like. Most, if not all, should have the server they're on listed on the left information panel. Most also don't require you to only have one primary shell, so why not pick out a couple? That might also help you pick a server.
Oh, I beliiieve this hasn't been mentioned, but there's a Duskwight linkshell being started up on Balmung, sounds very much like the one you used to be in. They might have mentioned it in the Duskwight backstory and culture discussion here.
Hopefully some of that will be helpful to you :). ... Also welcome! Heheh~
