Hello !
I'm very new to Final Fantasy and Square Enix as in just started on Sunday, August 3rd. after playing for an hour on Saturday I ordered the digital CE.
 I'm a long time Rper starting back in 1999 in Everquest 1 when the game was played on a computer carved out of stone with a real mouse.  Since then I've played WoW (very briefly), Everquest 2, Warhammer Online, Coh/CoV and most recently Aion.
After playing for a few hours I have to wonder what took me so long to get here! I'm very impressed with the overall graphics and lore. I'm pretty excited if you couldn't tell from the babbling text. *chuckles*
But...on to a few questions
1. how do you decided what server to play on ? I'm torn between Gilgamesh and Balmung. After much key mashing and waking up every few hours to see if the servers were unlocked. I've made two characters on each server so far.
Gilgamesh, New Grindania - I didn't really encounter much of the RP community in the ...9 hours I was online sunday *twitch* but it seemed to be pretty quiet. there look to be a few RP company's but I'm not sure of their membership or activity.
Balmung, Ul'dah - I logged in for about an hour so far ...and OMG! so many people Rping in the streets, alleys, taverns..well you get the idea.  The RP community seems to be huge.
I was hoping for a few opinions on the servers from those with more experience.
2. is there a way to copy the graphic from one item onto another ? in Aion this was accomplished by going to a remodeler npc who would change the appearance of an item by extracting it from another item which was destroyed.
I'm sure there are a few more questions but I think I've bombarded the forum enough for one post =)
Thanks
Solen
