Maybe loosening up on the restrictions a bit?

The 2.5 hype prolly died down. ...so all the people that only login to raid are likely just waiting for 3.0 now.

Maybe because a few of us from this site, went on the official forum and kept asking for Balmung to be open so we could make alts or get our friends into the server.

Franz's reasoning is probably more likely.

Or for the Gold Saucer update to drop.

Balmung is open now (at least as of 4:00 PST)

which is weird, I thought they didnt open until tuesday mornings? Maybe they really are loosening restrictions. Rerolling a lvl 1 standby alt because I thought of a better name orz

Balmung is open right now. If you plan on getting any alt's in, you might want to log in and make them real quick before the server fills up and locks character creation out.

EDIT: HINT!: Most people dont log in the following morning right after maintenance or patch so Balmung is wide open well through the morning. All the way till 10am-12pm.

That might explain why I've been seeing a lot more I'm-not-an-RPer-and-I-want-you-to-know-it names lately.

Balmung isn't an official role-playing realm so there's no obligation for anyone who doesn't role-play to have a lore friendly name.

Yes, but as the toughest server to get on it's not somewhere you go on a whim.

Because the 80% of non-RPers have other friends they'd like to play with too.

Sorry for posting in here but for those looking to make an alt you may have a shot tonight/tomorrow!

All worlds maintenance at 11pm PST (2/25/15)! Scheduled to end 2am PST (2/26/15)

Pretty much this. There may be a lot of us on Balmung, but RPers do not make up the majority of the playerbase on Balmung. You have to keep in mind that Balmung was the combination of two servers originally, Fabul and Besaid, and only one of those servers was an RP server originally, many of the people who came over from Fabul are still around, and most of the large FCs on the server are all progression guilds with little or no interest in RP.

RE: Balmung is open! - Ilwe'ran - 02-26-2015

Balmung is open right now

RE: Balmung is open! - Kou - 02-26-2015
